The opportunity

We are looking for a motivated Organisational Development Consultant to join our diverse and friendly team at UAL. This role sits within our Organisation Development and Staff Development (ODSD) team, supporting the delivery of strategic people and culture priorities.

As OD Consultant, you will work on a wide range of organisational development initiatives with a focus on developing forward-looking people policies, equipping managers with the skills and knowledge required to support their staff, and working collaboratively across the organisation to promote staff engagement. 

This role will be a perfect fit if you enjoy building relationships, providing expert consultancy, and thinking creatively to introduce new and diverse ways of enhancing employee experience and wellbeing. 

About you

The ODSD team is a dynamic environment - we work on a wide range of projects across the entire organisation. As such, we are looking for someone with a proactive approach, with experience in staff engagement, HR policy, wellbeing and, ideally, organisational change. 

You will need to be able to explain complex ideas to a wide audience and, as such, you will excel at and enjoy communicating with a variety of people, whether in person or in writing. 

Our work also relies on a culture of continuous improvement and meaningful consultation with our key stakeholders, meaning you will need strong organisational and digital skills, including the ability to collect, analyse and report on qualitative and quantitative data.

The full list of requirements can be found in the person specification of the Job Description. 

Application process If you have not applied or signed up for job alerts with us before, you will need to create an account. Registration does not take long and will help you to keep track of your application during the recruitment process.

Stages involved in the process: Application, Shortlisting, Interview Panel Q&A, Presentation, Onboarding.

As part of your application, you will need to write a supporting statement in no more than 1,500 words that covers some/all of the competencies that can be found in the person specification. The application form will let you know exactly criteria are being tested.

We advise you to apply early as the application closing date may be brought forward if we receive enough applications. If you have any general questions or require any reasonable adjustments, please get in touch via P

We understand the benefits of using AI in work. However, if you are thinking of using AI to support your application, we ask you to think carefully about what value it adds. AI tools tend to lack the personal touch and authenticity we value in candidates. Therefore, we encourage you to showcase your unique knowledge and skills using your own voice.
