Junior Consultant, Reward and People Advisory
Do you want to make a tangible difference to clients’ talent, reward strategies, and overall employee value proposition?
Do you want to work in a highly successful team with great rewards and flexibility? Then we have a great opportunity for you!
We’re looking for an Associate Consultant to join our growing Talent Advisory practice based in London. This is a hybrid role with the flexibility to work both virtually and from our London office.
Aon is in the business of better decisions
At Aon, we shape decisions for the better to protect and enrich the lives of people around the world. As an organisation, we are united through trust as one inclusive team and we are passionate about helping our colleagues and clients succeed.
The Talent Advisory Team
The Talent Advisory team is part of the wider Talent Solutions practice. We partner with our clients and support them in developing new talent and reward approaches tailored to their particular business and unique operating model and culture. We work with clients on a wide range of topics, and the diversity of our support is a key feature of the work in our team.
We provide valuable advice to companies during some of the most exciting and crucial moments in their growth and evolution—including during carve-outs and M&A scenarios, where we help them to create, align, and integrate talent and reward processes in a way that supports the aspirations of the new business.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What the Day Will Look Like
As a Junior Consultant, some of your key responsibilities will involve:
- Understanding and identifying client needs, including business and reward strategy, complexities of data gathering and handling, data nuances and caveats, and best practices

- Producing deliverables for review by the Project Manager / Senior Consultant
- Directly leading client relationships, for either the overall project or your section of a project
- Supporting colleagues in creating, exploiting and growing the reward consulting business and a good grasp of how this work can be leveraged to other areas of the firm
- Managing day-to-day operations and project tasks, either for entire projects or specific sections of them
- Completing all time recording and expenses on time
- Ensuring overall project or your project responsibilities are completed within agreed budgets and timelines
- Staying aware of changes to reward practice and legislation in the market and considering how current Aon products could be enhanced or marketed to take advantage of these changes
- Considering opportunities to introduce standardization to current products or service lines for improving cost efficiencies

Our main service areas focus on:
- Total reward strategies
- Employee value proposition design (EVP)
