Who you are:
After nearly 100 years, we know this business is fundamentally about making connections—between facts, figures, insights, strategies, tools, technologies, and above all, people. That’s why we look for collaborative, insightful, and inquisitive problem-solvers who don’t accept the first thing in front of them and who are always unapologetically themselves.
We want to hear from you if you have:
- An MBA (preferred) and 10+ years of professional experience
- Relevant management consulting experience with strong market traction at the Principal level
- Experience working with clients in Healthcare, with experience across the provider landscape
- Expertise in Health System Operations and clinical workflows
- Experience supporting Fortune 500 clients through long-term engagements
- Proven experience managing proposal development, participating in client pitches, and driving business development within existing and new accounts
- A passion for leading teams and mentoring colleagues
- Demonstrated ability to independently manage multiple major workstreams within business design engagements
- Exceptional consulting skills (presentation, communication, analytics, problem solving, leadership, presence)
- A willingness to travel as required
What we can offer you:
Every day, our people work to be the difference for our clients, our communities, and our colleagues. Helping them make an impact, they are sustained by a competitive remuneration package plus comprehensive benefits and perks, including but not limited to:
- Generous retirement/pension savings contributions
- Comprehensive medical insurance for employees and immediate family
- Gym membership discounts
- Non-partner equity-based awards (for consulting managers and above)
- Structured and on-the-job learning and development opportunities
