Create and coordinate the integration of professional learning content into our offerings, increasing opportunities for customers to access learning asynchronously.

Contribute to PeopleBench’s thought leadership through articles, posts, resources and tools — with a focus on amplifying customer success stories and workforce improvement initiatives.

Build robust relationships across internal functions (product, research, data, marketing and business development)



and contribute the voice of the customer in developing new IP, processes and offerings.

Proactively support the CXO to advance business development activities enabling a steady pipeline of new and expanded advisory revenue in line with company forecasts.

What we’re looking for

Demonstrated success leading the delivery of consulting projects in the HR/Organisational Development field, with substantial depth advising on workforce strategy and hire-to-retire lifecycle issues (experience in K‑12, NFP or government environments highly regarded).

Outstanding written, verbal, facilitation and presentation skills, including the ability to guide stakeholders through the ‘so what’ and ‘now what’ of workforce data.

Proven success building and nurturing a portfolio of customer relationships, with a strong customer service ethic and commitment to high‑quality engagement.

Strong project management and team leadership capabilities, with a track record of delivering complex projects on time, on budget and to quality standards.

Comfort working in a flexible, self‑directed environment as part of an international, values‑driven team.

Experience using (or ability to rapidly learn) customer support tracking solutions such as HubSpot.

University degree required; qualifications in Organisational Psychology or Business are highly desirable.
