360 Writer

Are you an excellent writer who enjoys interviewing people, analyzing complex information and uncovering meaningful insights?
SWIM is recruiting for a unique opportunity with a respected leadership consulting firm. This position combines qualitative research, professional writing and leadership development, producing insightful reports that help senior executives understand their strengths and development opportunities.
Previous 360 assessment experience is not required. We're interested in strong qualitative researchers and analytical writers with transferable experience.

Who – the Company
Our client is an established and growing leadership consulting firm working with organizations across North America to strengthen leadership effectiveness and organizational performance.
Known for its collaborative culture, high-quality work and experienced leadership team, the organization offers a supportive environment with opportunities for learning, professional development and meaningful client engagement.

What – the Role
Reporting to the Director of 360 Assessments, the 360 Writer will conduct confidential interviews, analyze qualitative feedback and produce comprehensive leadership assessment reports.
Each assessment typically runs for 6–8 weeks, involving research, analysis, writing and collaboration with executive coaches and consultants.
Key responsibilities:

• Conduct confidential interviews with executives, managers and professional stakeholders.
• Analyze qualitative feedback to identify themes, behavioural patterns, strengths and development opportunities.
• Produce clear, balanced and insightful reports that translate complex feedback into actionable findings.
• Manage assessment projects from interviews through final report delivery.
• Edit and review reports to maintain exceptional writing standards.
• Collaborate with consultants and fellow writers to improve reporting quality, methodologies and processes.
• Maintain strict confidentiality when handling sensitive information.

This is a research and analytical writing role, not a marketing or content writing position.

Who – the Candidate
We're seeking a curious, analytical and highly articulate professional with exceptional writing skills and a genuine interest in understanding people and leadership behaviours.
The ideal candidate will have:

• 2+ years of experience in qualitative research, professional report writing, research interviewing, assessment reporting or a related field.
• Exceptional writing, editing and proofreading skills.
• Experience conducting interviews and synthesizing qualitative information into meaningful insights.
• Strong analytical thinking and an understanding of thematic analysis or other qualitative research methods.
• Confidence engaging with senior professionals and asking thoughtful questions.
• Excellent organization, attention to detail and ability to manage multiple deadlines.
• Strong interpersonal skills, sound judgment and ability to work independently.

A degree in psychology, sociology, social sciences, organizational psychology, communications or a related field is preferred. A research-focused master's degree is an asset.
Experience in organizational research, behavioural research, leadership development or consulting is beneficial, but previous 360 assessment experience is not essential.
