Rewards and People Advisory Director

Director - Rewards and People Advisory

We are currently growing our UK Talent & Reward Advisory team and are looking to hire a Senior Consultant or Director to join our busy practice based in the City of London. The Advisory team is part of the wider Human Capital Solutions practice.

This is a hybrid role with the flexibility to work both virtually and from the London office.

Our main service areas focus on total reward strategies, employee value proposition design (EVP), future skills definition, culture alignment, job architecture and levelling, and design of all components of the reward package including base pay, annual incentive plans, sales incentives, and performance management.

We provide invaluable advice to companies during some of the most exciting and crucial moments in their growth and evolution, including during carve-outs and M&A scenarios where we help them create, align, and integrate talent & reward processes.

This is a commercially focused role with direct client and prospect interaction, where individuals are expected to be involved in business development, closing deals, and successful management and delivery of projects.
