Description
Let’s face it, a company whose mission is human transformation better have some fresh thinking about the employer/employee relationship.
We do. We can’t cram it all in here, but you’ll start noticing it from the first interview.
Even our candidate experience is different. And when you get an offer from us (and accept it), you get way more than a paycheck. You get a personal BetterUp Coach, a development plan, a trained and coached manager, the most amazing team you’ve ever met (yes, each with their own personal BetterUp Coach), and most importantly, work that matters.
This makes for a remarkably focused and fulfilling work experience. Frankly, it’s not for everyone. But for people with fire in their belly, it’s a game-changing, career-defining, soul-lifting move.
Join us and we promise you the most intense and fulfilling years of your career, doing life-changing work in a fun, inventive, soulful culture.
If that sounds exciting—and the job description below feels like a fit—we really should start talking.
We are a hybrid company with a focus on in-person collaboration when necessary. Employees are expected to be available to work from one of our office hubs at least two days per week, or eight days per month. Our Europe hub locations are London, UK and Amsterdam, NL. Please ensure you can realistically commit to this structure before applying.
Transform how the world’s leading companies invest in their people.
At BetterUp, we’re building a new kind of partnership with our customers — one that doesn’t stop at platform adoption. We’re in the business of deep, lasting transformation. That’s where you come in. As a Strategic Advisor, you’ll partner directly with executives at the world’s top companies to shape human capital strategies that matter. You’ll co-create solutions that unlock performance, culture, and growth — and you’ll stay close to the ground as those plans become real. You won't be a passenger in this process; you’ll be the driver of strategic clarity, executive alignment, and long-term outcomes. This is not a back-office, post-sale support role. This is a front-line, high-trust, high-impact leadership seat. If you thrive on building executive relationships, architecting transformation, and making ideas real through people, let’s talk.
