This is a newly created role and a fantastic opportunity to join a business investing in skills-based talent management and future workforce capability.
You’ll work across the organisation to design and evolve career architecture frameworks, helping create clearer career pathways, stronger internal mobility and more future focused capability planning particularly as emerging areas such as AI continue to reshape the world of work.
This role would suit someone who enjoys solving complex people challenges, managing multiple projects and influencing stakeholders across a changing organisation.

Supporting organisational change initiatives and helping embed consistent talent infrastructure across the business
Incorporating emerging capability areas, including AI-related skills, into existing role and career frameworks
We’re open to candidates from a variety of backgrounds including Organisation Development, HR projects, consulting or workforce transformation.
You may already have experience in career architecture or job framework design, or you may have developed adjacent experience through broader talent or organisational projects.
