HR / Human Capital

At Korn Ferry, we help organisations align strategy and talent to drive performance. As demand for large-scale transformation continues to grow, we’re expanding our UK&I Consulting team and are looking for a Consultant to support the successful delivery of client engagements across our Consulting business.

This role is solution-agnostic. While many of our current programmes sit within Assessment & Succession and Leadership & Professional Development, what matters most is your ability to manage project activity, coordinate stakeholders, and help deliver exceptional client experiences.

What you’ll do

  • Manage the day-to-day delivery of client projects and workstreams
  • Coordinate project plans, timelines, resources and key milestones
  • Partner with consultants and client stakeholders to ensure successful project execution
  • Monitor project risks, dependencies and actions, escalating issues where appropriate
  • Support project governance, reporting and financial tracking
  • Facilitate project meetings, workshops and stakeholder communications
  • Contribute to continuous improvement and delivery excellence across engagements

What we’re looking for

  • Experience in project management, project coordination, consulting delivery or professional services
  • Proven ability to manage multiple priorities and stakeholders simultaneously
  • Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
  • Confidence building relationships with clients and internal teams
  • Ability to work in ambiguity and bring structure to complex situations
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • A collaborative, proactive and delivery-focused mindset

Why Korn Ferry

You’ll work on meaningful, high-impact client engagements, supported by world-class IP and a genuinely collaborative culture. We invest heavily in development and offer clear progression opportunities across Consulting and Engagement Management.
