PURPOSE:

The Predictive Index is a technology company and the leader in talent optimization. We are also an award-winning best place to work (Inc., Glassdoor, Boston Business Journal, The Boston Globe).

Our mission is “Better work, better world," and we take great pride in PI’s power to supercharge workplace relationships and culture to achieve the unthinkable. We’re our own best case study! You’ll be working toward a mission that inspires you and you’ll be surrounded by fun, smart, driven people day in and day out.

Come discover how we empower our clients to solve their biggest challenges and make their business dreams come true.

POSITION:

As a Talent Optimization Senior Consultant, you will use a combination of the PI methodology and tools, consulting and facilitation skills to work with directly with clients and to coach PI’s internal teams and PI’s partners to consult on Talent Optimization strategic business solutions. 

For PI Clients, you are a “transformation coach” who is:

• Scope projects to deliver high-quality engagements and solutions
• Drive cross-functional collaboration to develop PI consulting best practices, and foster marketing and sales strategies; serve as a subject matter expert for the development and improvement of services as part of PI solutions.
• Build on client engagement learnings and feedback to lead or support the continued evolution, and design and development of Talent Optimization solutions to enable clients to realize the full potential of their business strategy

As an experienced professional, you will have multiple opportunities for continuous learning in a new and fast-growing category, blending consulting and leading-edge software tools including AI.
You will have the chance to materially impact your clients’ performance and help them solve their most pressing business challenges.

We are looking for people who:

• Are independent, self-starting, self-motivated, and goal-oriented

• Weigh opportunities and risks and can adjust their risk profile to circumstances
• Have empathy and strong listening and interpersonal skills
• Are persuasive and assertive to get to solutions and results
• Are highly collaborative and open to multiple perspectives, both with clients and with their own colleagues
• Thrive in agile, ship to learn, and growth team environments

The ideal candidate will have:

• A demonstrated track record in consulting/coaching clients on business strategy, operational improvements, organization design, change management or human capital, preferably with small and medium-sized businesses
• Strong understanding of talent related challenges (e.g. leadership development, teams, engagement, personal development)
• Strong Project Management and analytical skills
• Outstanding ability to analyze client data and to understand their operating and competitive environment to conceive, plan, and successfully deliver compelling consulting solutions with measurable business impact
• Executive presence and the ability to facilitate and build consensus with client leadership teams on their company’s talent strategy and implementation plans
