Consultant
We are opening this attachment opportunity to individuals who have experience in HR or consulting, and who meet the requirements of the MCPP. You bring years of experience in real organisations, and you have just added a structured problem-solving toolkit. We want to put both to work. The attachment runs for six months, with the possibility to convert to a full-time consultant at the end of it.
You will work on live WDG(JR+) engagements with our clients. Most are SMEs and non-profits that want to redesign jobs for several reasons: to adopt new technology, to grow without adding headcount, or to give staff clearer career paths. You will help TalentKraft:
- Run diagnostics with clients using the IHRP Human Capital Diagnostic Tool (HCDT) and the Job Redesign Evaluation Tool (JRET)
- Support clients on improving HR policies, e.g., performance management, talent attraction, etc.
- Interview leaders and staff, map current processes and roles, and find where roles can be redesigned
- Facilitate workshops where management and staff agree on new job scopes, workflows and career pathways
- Write the recommendations, implementation plans and reports clients act on, as well as the milestone documentation the grant requires
- Support clients as they put redesigned jobs into practice, including coaching line managers and HR teams
- Scope and write proposals for new JR+ clients
Who you are
As a small organisation, we look for ambitious and dynamic people who work well in teams but can also take a piece of work and run with it. Natural curiosity and a willingness to learn a new way of working matter more to us than a perfect match on paper.
You should be:
- A problem-solver who thinks up creative ways to overcome challenges
- Able to think through issues in a structured way, and articulate and defend your conclusions
- At ease working with business owners, senior managers and frontline staff alike, and able to earn their trust
- A credible and convincing communicator with a strong command of written English
