Pax8 is hiring a Strategic Consultant in Zwolle, the Netherlands to work alongside the leaders of our technology partners, uncover what is holding their businesses back and help them move forward with clarity and confidence.
You’ll lead transformational workshops, challenge established thinking and turn complex conversations into practical growth strategies, recommendations and roadmaps. From leadership and culture to sales, operations and long-term strategy, you’ll see the real-world impact of your work on businesses and the people behind them.
You’ll join a close-knit and evolving Academy consultancy team, with the autonomy to shape partner experiences across Europe. As Pax8 continues its AI journey, you’ll combine emerging technology with the things it cannot replace: human curiosity, emotional intelligence and the ability to inspire meaningful change.
🌍 Join a culture built around growth
Learning isn’t something that happens once a year. Curiosity, different perspectives and continuous development are central to how this team works. You’ll be encouraged to explore ideas, deepen your expertise and bring your own perspective to an established but growing consultancy practice.
