Prince Harry will become first chief impact officer of BetterUp Inc, a firm that provides employee coaching and mental health assistance.
The move comes about a month after Buckingham Palace announced Harry, Queen Elizabeth’s grandson, and his American wife Meghan had made a final split with the royal family, and would not be returning as working members and would lose their patronages.

Earlier this month, the couple featured on Oprah Winfrey’s television interview, in which Meghan accused Britain’s royal family of racism and Harry claimed they had cut him and his wife off financially.
In his new role at BetterUp, Harry will focus on driving advocacy and awareness for mental fitness, diversify Betterup’s community of coaches and customers through strategic planning, among others, the company said here.
