About Us

Korn Ferry is a global organizational consulting firm. We help clients synchronize strategy and talent to drive superior performance. We work with organizations to design their structures, roles, and responsibilities. We help them hire the right people to bring their strategy to life. And we advise them on how to reward, develop, and motivate their people.

Our 8,600 colleagues serve clients in more than 50 countries. We offer five core solutions:

  • Organizational Strategy
  • Assessment and Succession
  • Talent Acquisition
  • Leadership Development
  • Rewards and Benefits

The Role

Organizations create value by doing work. It is therefore essential for any organization that wants to maximize its value to be able to understand, measure and analyze the work it is doing.

We are looking for consultants to join us and help organizations to structure and optimize work. We have deep expertise here and own the Korn Ferry Hay Method for job evaluation. The widest used method in the world. Although around for >70 years, the functional area is part of the biggest revolution witnessed so far.

As part of Korn Ferry’s digital transformation agenda, all of our IP has been integrated into a digital platform called Talent Hub. Work & Career Architecture has its own module within, called KF Architect.

Digitization in this respect created a dramatic change in scope, nature and approach of our job framework and job evaluation assignments with clients. Core characteristics for ‘the new world’ are more digital, more integrated with e.g. talent management, more automated.

As a result, the work of our consultants changes rapidly from somewhat more single-focus and transactional towards building & delivering integrated, tech-based solutions. Hence the name ‘Work and Career Architecture Consultant’.
