Job Description

As a Director in our Work, Rewards and Careers practice, you will collaborate with some of the industry’s top consultants while you develop deep and cutting-edge technical knowledge and skills.

These activities may include supporting local, regional and/or national marketing events, performing industry/topical research and developing intellectual capital, and participating in our firm’s industry and/or topical teams. 

 

Note: Employment-based non-immigrant visa sponsorship and/or assistance is not offered for this specific job opportunity.

While every day and assignment are somewhat different, some of your main responsibilities will include: 

  • Delivering effective, consistent project management for multiple, marquee clients. 
  • Drafting statements of work, project plans and budgets involving multiple workflow streams and client teams. 
  • Serving as the day-to-day project lead, ensuring progress of the team against established objectives, budget, timeline, deliverables and quality standards.

  • Collaborating and contributing to the development, design and implementation of compensation and related programs. 
  • Contributing to the development of new tools and approaches. 
  • Supporting the generation of new business as part of the broader team by: 
  • Assisting with new business development activities. 
  • Participating in discovery discussions with prospects and developing / delivering proposals. 
  • Establishing collaborative relationships with clients to understand their business and issues to better inform our consulting and to expand WTW’s relationship into new service areas. 
  • Contributing to the external visibility of WTW’s brand through intellectual capital generation, drafting articles, and attending and speaking at relevant conferences.
