These people will bring strong analytical and communication skills to the table and will have ambition to lead project and analytic innovation and successfully develop and manage client deliverables in partnership with our global Supply Chain Consulting team.

You will work closely with your project lead to successfully manage the project schedule.

Depending on the size of the project that you are staffed on, you may have some combination of Consultants and Senior Consultants on the team over which you would play a vital role in mentoring and performing QA / QC on the work that they perform. In some cases (e.g. on smaller projects) you may not have more junior staff below you and so we are looking for someone who can roll up their sleeves and help us get the work done regardless of the scenario. You will have opportunities to develop relationships with our US-based consultants.
