We're always on the look out for talented individuals to join our special team. We regularly advertise vacancies and new roles in the local press and using our recruitment partners. Or, if you think you have that 'special' ingredient, you can get in touch directly. We have been known to create roles for the right people.
We offer the opportunity to expand your career horizons, working on cutting edge, integrated strategy, leadership, development, innovation and engagement programmes for some of the world's biggest brands. As a Gold Investor in People, we're also in the top 1% of companies in the country in terms of our own development offer. We offer a positive work-life balance.
We're looking for individuals who have that 'special' combination of the 'what' and 'how'. The 'what' is being outstanding in your field of expertise. The 'how' is having an approach and attitude that makes people love working with you. In our business they both have equal importance.
The areas of expertise we most regularly recruit into are:
Commercial leaders – individuals who create value for the business by having a blend of high-end consultancy skills. These combine designing client solutions, selling these in, exceptional client relationship management, and seeing programmes through from start to finish working with a team.
Consultants – individuals who are practitioners and able to design and deliver world-class solutions in their fields of leadership, development, internal communication and employee engagement. All of our consultants are able to facilitate at a senior level. They also are able to design broad solutions that may flex across different business disciplines. Our clients expect joined-up thinking.
Programme managers – individuals who are expert in managing complex projects on time and on budget, whilst making it seem effortless. Our programme managers live and breathe client service. They combine this with a deep understanding of our areas of expertise in strategy, leadership, innovation and engagement, and an approach that values making new ideas possible. They work in partnership with our consultants.
Business support – individuals that support the client facing team. These include our in-house graphic design, video and web studios, finance manager and professional administration team.
