Nothing haunts me quite like the job titles corporate actually approves with a straight face.These aren’t April Fool’s jokes. These are real, in-use titles that sound like they were brewed in a cauldron full of buzzwords and espresso shots.
🧛 Chief Happiness Officer — ensuring joy while quietly approving redundancies.
🕸️ Culture Evangelist — preaching “engagement” while the Slack channels decay.
👻 Transformation Ninja — appears in your reorg deck without warning.
🪦 Synergy Architect — building bridges between teams that despise each other.
🧙 Disruption Sherpa — leading execs on a “journey” that loops back to square one.
🕷️ Talent Alchemist — turning hiring freezes into “strategic workforce optimisation.”
🩸 Innovation Catalyst — sparks ideas, then disappears before implementation.
💀 People Scientist — analysing why everyone’s leaving, then running another survey.
🫠 Change Champion — “championing” the same change since 2019.
🎃 Chief Visionary Officer — seeing the future, just not the quarterly forecast.🪆 Experience Curator — rebranding HR events as immersive “employee journeys.”
