Job Description
About the Role
We are seeking experienced HR leaders from technology or tech-adjacent companies in EMEA who are passionate about learning, growth, and community. This role is for individuals dedicated to developing and coaching people in their field, particularly those with experience in high-growth companies and startups.
As a Mento coach, you will build one-on-one partnerships with members to help them set and achieve clear goals, enhance leadership skills, improve communication, solve workplace challenges, and foster happiness, fulfillment, and engagement both at work and in their personal lives.
All Mento coaches, irrespective of prior coaching experience, must complete our ICF-certified coach training program to master Mento’s coaching methodology before working with members. This immersive training is designed for personal and professional growth as a coach, proficiency in the Mento Coaching Methodology, and access to proprietary tools. Graduates earn Continuing Coach Education Units. If you're ready to elevate your coaching skills, deepen your impact, and join a pioneering coaching team, we encourage you to apply.
Your Routine Responsibilities Will Include
- Providing 1:1 coaching to Mento members through virtual sessions using the Mento Platform and Tools.
- Participating in ongoing training sessions to improve coaching abilities and skills.
- Communicating with members via your Mento email or via chat in the Mento App between sessions.
- Being an integral member of the Mento coaching community by sharing coaching tools and insights, helping to enhance our coaching practices and fulfill our mission of empowering people to thrive in jobs they love.
- Acting with kindness, respect, and empathy as an ambassador of the Mento community.
Who You Are
You are…
- A VP+ or C-suite human resources leader with 20+ years of experience managing HR teams and coaching individuals (coaching certification is a plus but not required). You want to transition your people leadership skills into meaningful coaching expertise.
- Passionate about helping people advance in the workplace to build fulfilling careers and lives.
- Self-aware with high emotional intelligence, dedicated to creating a safe space for vulnerability and risk-taking.
- Excited about developing your coaching skills and bringing a growth mindset to this experience, regardless of your current coaching tenure.
- Comfortable navigating a constantly-changing startup environment.
- Able to dedicate a minimum of 12+ hours per month to coaching at Mento for at least the next 24+ months.
Other Details
Mento invites new coaches to join on a rolling basis, depending on client needs. This is a contract position with an hourly rate, plus potential bonuses for engagement and community growth.
You must commit to a minimum of three to five hours per week with Mento. A commitment of at least 24 months is required to build strong member relationships.
This is a fully remote position for candidates located across Europe. We seek experienced senior leaders looking to expand their coaching capabilities in this part-time growth opportunity.
Our Hiring Philosophy
All new Mento coaches must complete and graduate from our ICF-certified coach training program, Mento Coaching 101. This rigorous training prepares coaches for member matching. We hire based on member demand, extending offers only when there is an immediate need to ensure both coach and member success.
Candidates who receive a positive outcome post-interview will either be offered a spot in the next monthly Coaching 101 training or be placed on our coach shortlist for future demand.
