Job description

As a Talent Partner at Stanley Benson, you are part of the Consultant Relations domain. In this role, you are responsible for building and maintaining relationships with independent engineering consultants and facilitating the matching process on the consultant side, within a strict intermediary framework.

The Talent Partner works together with account managers within the sales domain, who are exclusively responsible for client contact, intake, and commercial proposals directed at clients. From sales, you receive a clearly defined expertise requirement, without involvement in client intake, project definition, or qualification.

Based on this information, you engage with independent consultants to discuss and map out availability, expertise, and collaboration terms. You explore the extent to which profiles align with the provided expertise requirement and compile relevant profile information and potential options for feedback to the account manager, who is responsible for further communication and commercial proposals to the client.

The Talent Partner does not engage in commercial conversations with clients, does not facilitate direct introductions, and is not involved in negotiations, pricing, or contract formation. You do not exert authority over consultants or interfere in the substantive execution of assignments. Your role remains intermediary, relational, and facilitative at all times.

During ongoing collaborations, you act as a point of contact on the consultant side for relational or process-related signals, without operational, substantive, or hierarchical interference. You monitor the progress of the collaboration from a neutral position and contribute to transparent and sustainable partnerships between autonomous parties.

In addition to these core activities, you also contribute, as a supportive secondary activity, to the proactive expansion and internal structuring of the consultant network. This includes market exploration and database management, aimed at improving the quality, discoverability, and relevance of the network.

Als Talent Partner bij Stanley Benson opereer je binnen het domein Consultantrelaties. Je bouwt duurzame professionele relaties uit met zelfstandige engineering-consultants en bewaakt het intermediaire karakter van onze samenwerkingen.

Je werkt nauw samen met Account Managers, die exclusief instaan voor klantcontact, intake en commerciële trajecten. Vanuit het verkoopdomein ontvang je een duidelijk gedefinieerde expertisebehoefte.

Op basis daarvan ga je in gesprek met autonome engineering-professionals om expertise, beschikbaarheid en samenwerkingsvoorwaarden te verkennen. Je analyseert in welke mate profielen aansluiten bij de voorgelegde behoefte en bundelt relevante informatie ter terugkoppeling aan de Account Manager, die verdere communicatie en commerciële opvolging verzorgt.

Je rol blijft strikt intermediair.
Je voert geen commerciële gesprekken met opdrachtgevers, bent niet betrokken bij onderhandelingen of contractvorming en oefent geen gezag uit over consultants. Evenmin meng je je in de inhoudelijke uitvoering van opdrachten.

Tijdens lopende samenwerkingen fungeer je als relationeel aanspreekpunt aan consultantzijde. Je bewaakt het proces vanuit een neutrale positie en draagt bij aan transparante en duurzame samenwerkingen tussen autonome partijen.

Daarnaast ondersteun je de uitbouw en structurering van het consultantennetwerk via marktverkenning en databankbeheer, met oog voor kwaliteit en actualiteit.
