Manager, EX Advisory Services

Why We Have This Role

Qualtrics is on a mission to eliminate bad experiences. We help companies determine what experiences they want their employees to have, understand the experiences they are actually delivering, and then take action to close the gap. Competition for top talent is fierce, and companies must create and continually evolve an environment where employees are attracted, engaged, growing, and developing. 

Our Advisory Services team partners directly with clients to design, build, and improve programs focused on creating great Employee Experiences. We offer a range of Advisory Services, which provide critical leadership and design innovation to clients looking to make big improvements to their EX program. 

The ideal Employee Experience advisory leader will have deep experience designing and building large-scale EX or OD programs within global organizations.
