Is this the kind of work you want to be part of?
People come to Sladen because they care about the quality of the work - and the way it's done.
We work with complexity, pressure and real-world constraints. That means we're thoughtful about who we work with, how we collaborate, and the standards we hold ourselves to.
This page is for people who are curious about contributing to our work - whether as facilitators, strategic collaborators or in other ways - and who recognise themselves in how we approach the work.
We're intentionally small and globally connected - able to scale without losing the human connection that matters.
Working with Sladen isn't about delivering scripts or rolling out standard programmes.
It's about showing up differently - with intention, care and the willingness to stay with complexity. These are the principles that shape how we collaborate.
Honesty, attention and curiosity
Starting any work with openness - not assumptions.
Genuine partnership
Working with clients inside real constraints, not around them.
Humanity under pressure
Keeping humanity visible when work becomes complex or high-stakes.
Sustainable by design
Designing for lasting change - not short-term wins.
A trusted global community
Much of our work is delivered through a trusted global network of associates and collaborators - facilitators, coaches, designers and thinkers whose professional experience is informed by varied paths and perspectives.
People we work with share strong facilitation capability, lived experience in complex environments, inclusive practice, comfort working without scripts, and respect for difference.
We don't operate an open associate pool. We build relationships carefully and over time.
Open roles and collaborations
From time to time, we look to grow our core team or bring in additional expertise. When opportunities are live, you'll find them here.
If there's nothing listed, that simply means we're not actively recruiting right now - not that we're closed to future conversations.
Curious about working with us?
If our way of working resonates with you, you're welcome to introduce yourself.
We're intentional about when and how we grow, so there won't always be immediate opportunities. When there's a strong alignment, we'll be in touch.
Before you share anything
This form is a way to start a conversation - not a formal application process. We use it to understand how you work and what you're interested in contributing. There's no expectation to have everything worked out.
Start with a conversation instead.
Whether you're exploring possibilities or just curious about how we work, we'd love to hear from you.
