Do you have the skills, passion and commitment to transform industries for the better? Think you can bring your A-game every day? If so, join us. We like big thinkers with action on the brain…

Why North Highland? Every choice you make will give you the opportunity to grow. It’s our employee ownership model - with plenty of coaching and personal development opportunities in the mix. For us, training doesn’t have an off switch. You’ll learn new things, both during and beyond traditional working hours. We want people who strive for the next level, then the next.

At North Highland, you’re never a number. Our firm is large enough to scale up, test your mettle and tackle big challenges, but small enough that clients won’t lose your face in a crowd. You’re recognized individually.

  • Articulating a clear vision and purpose for programs, communicating the why for a project to help align stakeholders with a common goal

It’s rooted in our employee ownership model—with plenty of coaching and personal development opportunities to help you forge your own path to the top. Grow through your choices
  • Our firm is large enough to scale up and tackle big client challenges, but small enough that you won’t get lost in the crowd. And that’s something that will never change. We celebrate individuality, collaborate as a team, and put our people first. Always. You're never a number.
  • Not content to stand still? We wouldn’t have it any other way. There’s room to experiment and stretch yourself here, and we encourage you to bring whatever you’ve got to the table.Make your mark.
