Rutherford International · Remote
Rutherford International welcomes expressions of interest from experienced executives, professional coaches and subject-matter specialists who can help professionals strengthen their performance, develop their judgement and prepare for greater responsibility.
Through the Executive Talent Accelerator, Rutherford matches assessed employees of enterprise clients with development expertise suited to their objectives, behavioural profiles and organisational circumstances.
This posting recruits independent providers of mentoring, coaching and specialist consulting services. It is an Evergreen Expression of Interest, not a current vacancy or a guaranteed assignment.
The Executive Talent Accelerator augments employers’ internal career and leadership development programmes with dedicated mentoring capacity, structured coaching and targeted specialist expertise.
Annual reviews can establish clear development priorities, but managers’ operational responsibilities may leave limited time for consistent guidance, practice and follow-up. Effective mentoring and coaching also require capabilities and interpersonal qualities that differ from those needed to manage performance.
Rutherford provides additional support to help employees act on agreed development objectives, working alongside their employer’s internal programme.
Provide longer-term, holistic guidance grounded in personal experience, career wisdom and relevant leadership responsibilities. Mentors help participants examine career direction, navigate organisational challenges, strengthen judgement and prepare for broader responsibilities.
Effective mentors explain their reasoning, share relevant experience and help participants develop their own judgement.
Provide structured, focused support for short-term skill development and performance improvement. Coaches help participants establish specific objectives, practise new approaches and review progress against agreed outcomes.
Assignments may address communication, delegation, stakeholder relationships, leadership behaviours or readiness for a defined responsibility.
Provide focused expertise addressing a particular functional, technical or business need. Specialists may explain a method, examine a decision, review work or help participants apply unfamiliar knowledge.
The scope, intended contribution and limits of the advice are established for each assignment. Implementation work is agreed separately.
Professionals may offer more than one service. Suitability and engagement scope are considered separately for each role.
A distinguished career or senior title alone does not establish mentoring or coaching capability. We look for evidence that you can listen, explain, challenge appropriately and adapt your approach to another person’s needs.
Rutherford evaluates providers across three complementary areas:
The RutherfordINTEL Assessment informs curator review alongside professional history, qualifications, references and examples of developmental work.
