The Process & AI Consultant is responsible for re-imagining and reinventing Talent Development products, services, and experiences to fundamentally change how employees, managers and leaders work, learn and lead at PropertyGuru.

This role goes beyond efficiency or automation. It exists to:

• Redesign TD offerings as scalable, intuitive “products”, not programs

• Leverage AI, data and experience design to simplify work and decision-making

• Shift leadership and people practices from process-heavy → insight-led → experience-driven

• Improve employee experience while directly enabling stronger business outcomes

The Consultant operates as a strategic design and transformation partner, shaping the future operating model of TD and how People & Culture creates value for the organisation.

As a Guru you will be accountable for:

A. Rethink TD Products & Services (Core Mandate)

• Re-conceptualize TD offerings (e.g. talent reviews, leadership development, IDPs, performance processes, skills frameworks) as end-to-end products with clear user journeys for:

  • Employees

  • Managers

  • Senior Leaders

• Redesign these products to reduce cognitive load, increase adoption, and embed into day-to-day work - not as “HR events”, but as ways of working.

• Identify which legacy TD services should be retired, simplified or radically redesigned.

B. Experience-Led Process & Operating Model Design

• Map employee, manager and leader journeys across key moments that matter (e.g. goal setting, feedback, development planning, talent discussions, leadership transitions).

• Redesign processes to be:

  • Insight-driven (data first, not opinion first)

  • Lightweight and intuitive

  • Embedded into business rhythms

• Define new TD operating principles (what TD owns vs enables vs gets out of the way of).

C. AI-Enabled Transformation of Work & Leadership

• Identify where AI can:

  • Remove low-value work

  • Improve quality of people decisions

  • Personalise learning and development

  • Enable managers to lead better with less effort

• Design AI-enabled concepts such as:

  • Skills-to-learning recommendation flows

  • AI-supported IDP or coaching nudges

  • Decision-support for talent and performance conversations

• Partner with Tech / HR Systems to prototype and pilot AI-enabled solutions.

D. Product Thinking & Rapid Experimentation

• Apply product management and service design thinking to TD initiatives:

  • Define user needs and success metrics

  • Prototype, test, learn, iterate

  • Scale only what demonstrably works

• Run pilots with specific employee or leader segments before groupwide rollout.

• Build feedback loops to continuously evolve TD offerings.

E. Influence, Change & Adoption

• Act as a thought partner to senior leaders on how leadership, performance and talent practices must evolve to support future business needs.

• Translate complex ideas into clear narratives, prototypes and stories that leaders can understand and champion.

• Drive adoption of new TD products through enablement, storytelling and behavioural design - not compliance.

3. Key Stakeholders

• Internal: Talent Development, PX/HRBPs, Internal Comms, HR Systems, Tech/Product teams, XLT & leadership cohorts

• External (as needed): AI/learning solution partners, experience design or innovation vendors

What we are looking for

A. Core Capabilities

• Strong systems thinking - ability to see how talent, performance, learning, leadership and culture connect.

• Product / service design mindset - designing for users, journeys and outcomes, not just processes.

• Comfort working with ambiguity and future-state problems.

B. AI & Digital Fluency

• Practical understanding of AI capabilities in productivity, learning and decision support.

• Ability to translate AI potential into real, usable solutions for managers and leaders (not theoretical use cases).

• Curiosity and experimentation mindset with emerging tools.

C. Change, Influence & Storytelling

• Ability to influence senior leaders without authority.

• Strong storytelling skills - framing problems, future states and solutions in compelling, simple ways.

• Experience driving behavioural and ways-of-working change.

D. Experience (Typical)

• 7-12+ years in roles such as internal consulting, transformation, product management, experience design, people transformation, or innovation.

• Background may come from HR, consulting, product, operations or digital transformation - HR and TD experience preferred.

• Demonstrated experience in redesigning services, products or operating models at scale.

5. Success Measures (What “Good” Looks Like)

• Clear reduction in friction, complexity and manual effort across TD touchpoints.

• Evidence that employees and managers:

  • Find TD tools easier to use

  • Make better people decisions

  • Spend less time navigating processes

• New TD products or services adopted organically (not driven by reminders).

• Tangible links between redesigned TD experiences and:

  • Improved engagement

  • Stronger leadership effectiveness

Our commitment to you:

• Hybrid flexible working that focuses on outcomes over hours.

• Holistic rewards package covering your financial, physical & mental health.

• Multi-directional career development across all levels.

• Inclusive benefits like equal paternity leave, supporting all employees in work-life balance.

At PropertyGuru, you’ll be part of a Top Employers Certified* company that puts people at the heart of everything we do.
