Early Careers Facilitator

We are Wiser, an award-winning Employer Branding & Early Talent agency. We build employer brands to guide the best in the biz into their dream career with our clients.

We’re a home for people who think big and expect more; where creative and recruitment meet to change the way people think about work — not to mention having the only rainforest in Farringdon.

Our creatives use design, product, film, strategy and marketing to capture what makes companies great and showcase it in the market. Our recruitment teams introduce the right people at the beginning of their career to set these companies apart.

We believe that people will do their best work when they're in a space that enables it. And that's what we've shaped at Wiser — a culture where everyone can be real and back themselves, surrounded by high performers who take ownership of their career and make moves, no matter what their background.

THE ROLE:

• Facilitating hybrid (majority in-person) behavioural skills programmes (e.g., self-awareness, resilience, managing up) for our clients’ Early Careers cohorts that Ignore The Ordinary and create the conditions for inclusive, psychologically safe learning environments where people can stretch and grow.
  
• Creating and refining outstanding workshop designs that inspire, educate, and develop Early Talent to Change The Way They Think About Work (and themselves) through an experiential learning and coaching-first approach.
  
• Building trusted advisory relationships with Early Careers and Learning and Development senior stakeholders to consult on programme strategies that create tangible ROI.
  
• Overseeing the full delivery cycle of training days—from research and preparation, to execution, attendee feedback analysis, and impact reporting on pre/post self-assessments.
  
• Acting as a strategic thought partner to the Development Lead to level-up and continuously improve our service lines, evolving them in line with the latest industry research, trends, and innovations for evidence-based practice.
  
• Working alongside and occasionally supporting the Attraction and Recruitment teams to become a cross-functional Early Talent expert and ensure joined-up experiences for our clients.

MINDSET AND VAUES:

You’ll thrive in this role if you:

• Are energised by developing others, and find joy in helping people uncover what they're capable of themselves and through their peers.
  
• Combine creativity with rigour — designing learning experiences that are bold, human and backed by evidence.
  
• Embrace feedback, reflection and iteration as a core part of your process, both for yourself and your work.
  
• Are commercially aware, understanding how to balance impact, experience and ROI in everything you deliver.
  
• Enjoy a balance of working independently and with others depending on the nature of the project.

SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

We’re open to a range of backgrounds, but here’s what we’re looking for:

• Proven experience designing and facilitating behavioural skills workshops, ideally for Early Careers audiences.
  
• Confident in leading in-person sessions , with a strong presence and ability to build rapport quickly with groups.
  
• Strong understanding of learning theory , experiential learning methods and/or coaching principles.
  
• Comfortable working with data — analysing learner feedback and behaviour change metrics to tell a story and drive improvement.
  
• Ability to consult with senior stakeholders , advise on programme design, and manage expectations.
  
• Skilled at juggling multiple workstreams — planning ahead and staying cool under pressure.
  
• Experience in an agency or fast-paced environment is a plus, but not essential.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE IN 6-12 MONTHS:

• You’ve built strong relationships with 2–3 of our key clients, earning their trust as a go-to L&D partner.
  

• You’ve confidently facilitated multiple learning experiences that learners rate highly and that clients see business impact from.
  

• You’ve enhanced or co-created at least one new element of our Early Talent offer (e.g. a new module, a content refresh, or an improved reporting model).
  

• You’re seen by the team as someone who brings energy, insight and challenge — someone who helps us level up.
  

• You’ve found ways to connect our L&D work to our broader Early Talent ecosystem — supporting Recruitment or Attraction where helpful.
