Director, Corporate Communications- Workplace Advisory

Work from home Full-time role Hiring

Edelman is a voice synonymous with trust, reimagining a future where the currency of communication is action. Our culture thrives on three promises: boldness is possibility, empathy is progress, and curiosity is momentum.

At Edelman, we understand diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) transform our colleagues, our company, our clients, and our communities. We are in relentless pursuit of an equitable and inspiring workplace that is respectful of all, reflects and represents the world in which we live, and fosters trust, collaboration and belonging.

The Role :

At Edelman, we’re passionate about helping our clients create workspaces that spark culture, drive business performance, and bring purpose to life. We’re seeking a Director, Workplace Advisory to join our dynamic team in Abu Dhabi.

This is a unique opportunity to shape how some of the world’s most innovative organisations think about the future of work, space and employee experience through data-led insights, strategic advisory, and storytelling that resonates.

What you'll do?

  • Lead workplace transformation projects for clients across the region—from discovery to strategy, storytelling to activation.
  • Partner with client stakeholders (HR, Real Estate, Facilities, Comms, and C-Suite) to align workplace strategy with organisational goals.
  • Facilitate workshops and use qualitative and quantitative insights to shape tailored advisory recommendations.
  • Develop compelling narratives, playbooks, and communications to support change journeys.
  • Translate technical workplace data (e.g., utilisation, engagement surveys, hybrid models) into business impact stories.
  • Contribute to team growth by mentoring junior talent, supporting business development, and building thought leadership content.
  • Collaborate closely with local and global colleagues across strategy, brand, design, and experience disciplines.
  • What we’re looking for

  • 10+ years of experience in workplace strategy, organisational design, internal communications, or related consulting.
  • A strategic mindset with the ability to translate complex challenges into simple, actionable insights.
  • Experience navigating corporate environments and engaging senior stakeholders.
  • Strong storytelling, facilitation, and writing skills—with a focus on clarity and impact.
  • A passion for workplace trends, the future of work, and helping organisations thrive through people-first spaces.
  • Experience working in the Middle East is strongly preferred; Arabic language skills are a plus.
  • Why Edelman?

  • We are a global team of strategists, creators, analysts, and advisors united by a shared purpose: to help our clients earn trust and make meaningful impact. At Edelman, you’ll find a culture that values curiosity, creativity, collaboration, and continuous growth. We support one another, celebrate progress, and strive to reflect the diverse world we serve.
  • We’re committed to building a truly inclusive workplace—diverse in background, lived experience, and perspective. We believe DEIB is everyone’s responsibility, and we expect all Edelman colleagues to act with empathy, embrace diverse cultures, and practice conscious inclusion and continuous learning.
  • Additional Information

    We are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your experience doesn’t perfectly align with every qualification, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
