Join our team of fabulous facilitators

Check out the opportunities on offer below (plus a bit about who we are and the kind of workplace we offer).

Interested? Create and submit a video telling us about yourself and your experience with facilitation using the form below.

About the video:

• Make it snappy please! Three minutes max.

• Upload it to an online platform (e.g. a file sharing app or Youtube) and create a link that allows us to view it.

• Paste your link into the form below.

• High level editing skills or a background in documentary making is NOT a pre-requisite of being a facilitation and engagement consultant. So, if you want to go all out that’s awesome (we love it when people go fancy!), however, we’re more interested in who you are than any special effects you want to use.
