Who you are

  • You are developing subject matter expertise in diversity, inclusion and leadership, and draw on your understanding of how large organisations work in your delivery.
  • You build trusted, long-term relationships with clients, beyond partnering with clients on project delivery work. You care about understanding what’s important to our clients and delivering to their expectations.
  • You are people and business outcomes focused and are always looking for the win- win-win to balance business, client and team needs.
  • You are organised and enjoy the process of creating a plan of action and executing against it with a sense of urgency, and an ability to work quickly under pressure to get results.
  • You are a fast learner – you are happiest hands on and acting, and quick to pick up new platforms and technologies.

If you have some or all the following experience, we’d love to speak with you:

  • 4+ years’ experience in design and delivery of Organisational Development, Talent and Culture programs in a corporate and/or consulting environment
  • Degree in Business or Commerce (Human Resource Management, Organisational Development, Organisational Psychology)
