Job description

Virtual Talent Retention Consultant Step Into a Role That Keeps People Inspired Ever worked somewhere amazing... but seen great people leave because no one checked in on how they really felt? That’s exactly what we’re here to change. As our Virtual Talent Retention Consultant, you’ll help keep our team happy, connected, and sticking around for the long run. You’re not just answering questions or ticking boxes — you’re making sure people feel valued every single day.

Why This Role Matters

We know remote work has huge perks. But it also has real challenges. It can get lonely. Misunderstandings can build up. Little wins can get lost in the shuffle. That’s where you step in. You’ll spot small cracks before they turn into big gaps. You’ll be the friendly voice checking in, the problem-solver finding fixes, and the motivator keeping morale high.

What a Day Might Look Like

One morning, you might be running a virtual coffee chat with a team member who’s been quieter than usual. By the afternoon, you’re planning an online trivia session to celebrate hitting a big project milestone. In between, you’re listening to feedback, pulling out themes, and brainstorming ways to make work feel smoother for everyone. It’s not about being a cheerleader 24/7. It’s about creating moments where people feel heard and appreciated.

Your Main Focus

• Have ongoing conversations with team members — keeping the connection alive, even when nothing seems wrong.
• Spot early signs of burnout and help find practical solutions.
• Celebrate wins, both big and small.
• Gather honest feedback and turn it into action.
• Work closely with managers so no one slips through the cracks.

Tools & Skills You’ll Lean On

You don’t need a list of fancy qualifications. What matters here is your ability to connect. You’ll be using video calls, instant messages, and good old-fashioned listening. If you’re comfortable chatting with all kinds of personalities and keeping conversations real, you’ll thrive. You should feel confident: Talking openly with people at all levels. Staying calm when someone’s frustrated. Keeping conversations confidential. Finding creative ways to keep people engaged.

Real Examples From Our Team

Last month, one of our team members was struggling with focus. It wasn’t about workload — it was about working in a noisy home environment. After chatting with our consultant, we arranged a flexible schedule so they could work during quieter hours. Problem solved. Stress gone. Or take our weekly "Wins Wednesday." It started small — just a quick group chat sharing something good that happened that week. Now, it’s a full-on video call where we celebrate everything from project launches to someone’s new puppy.

The Kinds of Wins You’ll Create

• Turn a tired Monday into a motivated one.
• Help a new hire feel like part of the family by week two.
• Spot a small issue before it causes someone to quit.
• Make team celebrations part of the culture, not just an afterthought.

How You’ll Work With Us

You’ll be fully remote, but you’ll never feel disconnected. We’ve got Slack for quick chats, Zoom for face-to-face moments, and a shared space where ideas flow freely. You’ll have the freedom to test new engagement ideas — and we’ll back you when you do.

What We Value in This Role

We’re looking for someone who gets that retention isn’t about grand gestures — it’s about the everyday stuff. The quick check-in that makes someone smile. The note that says, Hey, I noticed you nailed that presentation.

You’re a fit if:

• You’re a natural listener.
• You notice details others miss.
• You can lift people up without being over the top.
• You believe a strong team culture can exist anywhere — even fully online.

Challenges You Might Face (and Beat)

Sure, there are days when it feels like you’re putting in effort and not seeing immediate results. Or when someone leaves despite your best work. But here’s the thing: every conversation, every honest exchange, every little moment you create still matters. You’re planting seeds that grow over time.

What Success Looks Like Here

• Low turnover because people want to stay.
• A team that trusts each other and the company.
• Clear feedback loops where concerns get addressed quickly.
• A workplace where people actually enjoy logging in each morning.

The Practical Stuff

Position: Virtual Talent Retention Consultant

Location: Fully Remote

Salary: $65,800 annually

Schedule: Flexible, with core collaboration hours

Tools Provided: Laptop, headset, and any software you need to connect with the team

Your Background (It’s More About People Skills Than Paper)

You might have worked in HR, coaching, or customer success. Or maybe you’ve been the unofficial team morale booster in your past jobs. If you can hold a conversation that makes people feel comfortable opening up — that’s gold. Experience with: Remote team environments Conflict resolution Team engagement activities Collecting and acting on feedback ...will help you hit the ground running.

How We Keep the Energy Up

We’re big believers in small traditions. We send out Friday "High Five" messages where we shout out team wins. We host monthly learning sessions where anyone can teach something new. And yes, we even have virtual escape rooms. It’s all about building moments that make people feel connected, even from miles apart.

A Quick Story About Why This Role Exists

Two years ago, we lost three amazing team members in the same month. All for reasons that could have been avoided — if someone had just noticed the signs. That was our wake‑up call. Since bringing in a dedicated retention consultant, our turnover has dropped dramatically. People stay because they feel valued, understood, and part of something bigger.

What You’ll Love About This Role

• Freedom to be creative with engagement ideas.
• Genuine impact on people’s work lives.
• A team that backs you up.
• The satisfaction of knowing you made someone’s day better.

Ready to Step In?

This isn’t a job for someone who just wants to watch from the sidelines. You’ll be in the thick of it — listening, fixing, celebrating, encouraging. If you believe that keeping great people is just as important as hiring them, then. We’re excited to see how you’ll shape our culture and keep our team thriving.
