About the role
As a Senior Consulting Manager, Investment & Client Data and Information Delivery, you will make an impact by providing strategic and operational leadership across investment data, client reporting, and information-delivery capabilities for a leading asset management client.
You will own the end-to-end delivery of timely, accurate, controlled, and client-ready investment information while advancing data governance, operating-model improvements, reporting scalability, and platform modernization. You will collaborate with Investments, Client Service, Operations, Data, Technology, Risk, Compliance, Legal, and external service providers to improve data quality, strengthen controls, and enhance the overall client experience.
In this role, you will
- Lead the strategy, operating model, and day-to-day delivery of investment data, client reporting, and information services across institutional and intermediary channels, ensuring deliverables meet contractual, regulatory, quality, and timeliness requirements.
- Oversee the sourcing, validation, enrichment, governance, and distribution of securities, holdings, transactions, benchmarks, performance, attribution, exposures, portfolio accounting, and client data.
- Partner with business and technology leaders to define future-state data and reporting architecture, business requirements, implementation priorities, and transformation roadmaps involving data platforms, reporting tools, workflow automation, self-service capabilities, and client portals.
- Strengthen enterprise data governance by establishing clear data ownership, lineage, metadata, data-quality rules, reconciliations, approval standards, service-level agreements, issue-management practices, capacity plans, and management metrics.
- Lead multidisciplinary teams and strategic vendors, manage complex delivery issues and escalations, drive root-cause analysis and sustainable improvements, and provide executive reporting on service performance, risks, incidents, demand, and transformation progress.
Work model
We believe hybrid work is the way forward as we strive to provide flexibility wherever possible. Based on this role’s business requirements, this is a hybrid position requiring 3-4 days per week in the office in Needham, Massachusetts. Regardless of your working arrangement, we are here to support a healthy work-life balance through our various wellbeing programs.
The working arrangements for this role are accurate as of the date of posting. They may change based on the project you are engaged in, as well as business and client requirements. Rest assured, we will always be clear about role expectations.
What you must have to be considered
- 12-15 years of progressive experience in investment data, client reporting, information delivery, investment operations, or related asset management functions, including significant experience leading teams and enterprise-scale transformation programs.
- Deep understanding of asset management data and processes, including securities, holdings, transactions, benchmarks, performance, attribution, exposures, portfolio accounting, and institutional or intermediary client reporting.
- Demonstrated experience owning end-to-end information-delivery services with rigorous expectations for accuracy, timeliness, data quality, governance, operational risk, controls, and regulatory compliance.
- Proven ability to lead data and reporting transformation initiatives from strategy and requirements through implementation, adoption, and operational stabilization.
- Strong executive communication, stakeholder management, negotiation, problem-solving, and decision-making skills, with a bachelor’s degree in finance, Economics, Business, Information Systems, Data Management, or a related discipline, or equivalent professional experience.
These will help you succeed
- Experience with enterprise investment-data platforms, data warehouses or data lakes, portfolio accounting systems, performance and attribution platforms, CRM solutions, client-reporting technologies, and vendor-based data services.
- Working knowledge of SQL, data analytics and visualization, APIs, cloud data platforms, workflow tools, automation, and Agile delivery practices.
- Experience managing third-party market or reference data providers, reporting vendors, outsourced service partners, and associated service, risk, and performance reviews.
- Knowledge of regulatory, privacy, books-and-records, data retention, and operational-risk requirements affecting investment and client information.
- An MBA, CFA, CIPM, or relevant data-management, Agile, or project-management certification.

Tips for Your Director of Consulting Delivery Job Search
Quantify delivery outcomes on your resume
Hiring managers for this role want to see portfolio scale, not just titles. List the number of concurrent engagements you managed, client retention outcomes, and revenue delivered. Vague phrases like 'led consulting projects' get filtered out quickly.
Show methodology and framework fluency
Firms screen for familiarity with delivery frameworks like agile, waterfall, or SAFe. Name the specific methodologies you've used to run engagements, and tie each to a business result. Generic 'project management experience' undersells your fit.
Target postings by practice area, not just title
Many firms post this role under a practice name, like 'Digital Delivery Director' or 'Managed Services Delivery Lead.' Searching the exact title alone misses a large portion of relevant openings. Vary your search terms to surface all matching roles.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists director of consulting delivery openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare a client escalation story for interviews
Interviewers at this level almost always ask how you handled a delivery crisis or a dissatisfied client. Have one clear example ready that shows how you diagnosed the problem, re-aligned stakeholders, and recovered the engagement without losing the client.
Negotiate scope alongside compensation
When you receive an offer, clarify what your delivery portfolio will look like on day one, including team size, existing client commitments, and open escalations. Inheriting an understaffed or troubled delivery book changes the value of the role significantly.
