What's the role?

The Managing Director will report to the principal, serve as a senior client-facing executive, and build the people, processes, and go-to-market strategy needed to scale these practices.

        • People Leadership

          • Recruit, mentor, and develop consultants, managers, and directors within the practice areas.

          • Build and manage a resourcing plan to balance utilization, career development, and delivery quality.

          • Foster a collaborative, high-performance culture and support staff certification and professional growth.

          • Cross-Functional Collaboration

            • Partner with other practice leads, sales, marketing, and program management operations to align messaging, resourcing, and delivery capacity.
