Job description

THE TEAM YOU WILL BE JOINING

  • Consultant with AccruePartners! Our client is a multi-entity advisory services organization refining its target operating model (TOM) and seeking clarity within the "Associate" population.
  • Legacy titles and mixed responsibilities have created inconsistent leveling, career paths, and compensation alignment-particularly between administrative / client service roles and advisor-track roles.
  • Leadership is prioritizing a practical, sprint-based approach that produces clear, market-aligned job architecture with minimal meeting overhead.

WHAT WE OFFER YOU

  • High-impact, executive-visible engagement to define job families, levels, and career paths for the Associate population
  • AccruePartners delivery support for rapid onboarding, cadence, and stakeholder alignment
  • Opportunity to establish a scalable architecture and governance model that can extend to additional roles and geographies
  • Phased roadmap tied to TOM milestones; focus on outcomes over prolonged process

    • WHERE IT IS LOCATED

    Remote (U.S.) with limited, planned on-site working sessions as needed.

    WHAT YOU WILL DO

  • Role Inventory & Discovery : Catalog current Associate titles, responsibilities, and variations; conduct targeted interviews; assess scope / complexity, overlaps, and gaps.
  • Job Families & Tracks : Design clear job families and dual tracks (e.g., Advisor vs. Administrative / Client Service), with sub-families where needed; define purpose and boundaries for each role.
  • Leveling Framework : Create a leveling model (e.g., Associate I / II, Senior, Lead) with calibrated criteria-scope, autonomy, decision rights, complexity, impact-and behavioral / technical competencies.
  • Career Pathing : Build transparent progression ladders and cross-track pathways; define readiness indicators, development experiences, and example transitions between roles.
  • Compensation Alignment : Partner with Total Rewards to map roles / levels to market data, propose pay bands and differentials, and address internal equity considerations.
  • Job Profiles & Toolkits : Produce standardized job profiles (accountabilities, qualifications, KPIs) and manager / employee quick guides; provide templates for future roles.
  • Governance & Change : Stand up a lightweight governance model (RACI, ownership metadata, refresh cadence, change control) and a communications / adoption plan.
  • TOM Sequencing & Roadmap : Align deliverables and timing with TOM milestones; define gating criteria, pilot scope, and a phased rollout to meet year-end goals.

    • HOW YOU ARE QUALIFIED

  • 8-10+ years building job architecture / leveling frameworks, competencies, and career paths in complex, multi-site organizations (professional services or advisory environments a plus)
  • Demonstrated experience aligning roles to market data and compensation structures while maintaining internal equity
  • Skilled facilitator with HR leadership and business stakeholders; able to run efficient working sessions and drive decisions
  • Exceptional writing and documentation skills; converts complexity into clear, employee-facing materials
  • Proficiency with HRIS / people systems and market data tools (e.g., Workday / UKG / SuccessFactors; Mercer / Radford or similar), plus strong Excel / PowerPoint
