Leadership Development Consultant

Leadership Development Manager

The company is a dynamic, startup-style consultancy specializing in leadership development and talent solutions. With a flat organizational structure and a fast-paced entrepreneurial environment, the company values adaptability, rigor, and operational excellence. The team is compact to avoid excessive hierarchy and emphasizes hands-on contribution at all levels.

The role is positioned at the manager or senior manager level within the leadership development function. It sits below director level and is designed for individuals with approximately five to seven years of experience in leadership development.

• Prior experience working in startup environments or consultancies (ideally both)
• Demonstrated ability to operate at pace while maintaining high standards of quality
• Strong organizational skills and process orientation
