About Macro Foresight
Macro Foresight is part of Accenture's CEO Advisory business. We work with CEOs and boards on enterprise-wide strategy and reinvention, helping them perform, protect, and grow. Within that, we are the team that anticipates disruption and volatility: we help clients read the external environment—economic, geopolitical, and financial—and build long-term strategies for competitiveness and resilience. Our footprint is global, with hubs in North America, Europe, and Asia.
In the past two years we've helped leaders respond to the highest US tariffs in a century, energy and supply shocks around the Strait of Hormuz, two-speed economies, and the reordering of global trade around industrial policy and AI.
What we do:
The work we deliver for clients' centers on a set of CEO- and board-level offerings:
- Economic and geopolitical impact assessments. AI-accelerated analysis of how macro and geopolitical shifts affect a business, a market, or a major investment.
- Scenario planning and wargaming. AI-enabled planning and table-top wargaming that test a strategy against a range of possible futures.
- Decision intelligence. Enterprise-wide decision support that reaches beyond macro and geopolitics into portfolio strategy, competition, consumer trends, and business performance.
- Strategic foresight and long-range planning. Structured futures assessments and long-range portfolio planning.
- Enterprise resilience assessments. CEO- and board-level diagnostics that measure and strengthen an organization's resilience to shocks.
- Foresight capability enablement. Helping clients build their own capability across people, process, and technology.
Who we are:
We hire for a few different profiles, and many people here bring more than one:
- Economists and geopolitical experts who read the real economy, financial and commodity markets, and the interplay of policy, trade, and security, and apply it to a client's business context.
- Strategists who translate complex analysis into recommendations a leadership team can act on.
- Entrepreneurial people who grow teams and develop those who join after them.
- AI engineers who code, build models, and put large language models and AI agents to work. We're actively hiring for this.
- People who work well with ambiguity, set their own direction, and want to help build new offerings like scenario planning, wargaming, and foresight.
You'll advise companies and boards as AI and economic and geopolitical forces reshape the global business landscape. You will work across industries and functional domains and help shape the executive decisions that move markets.
What you'll be doing
- Deliver client engagements. Own a workstream from the first framing of the question through to the recommendation and stay with it as the client executes.
- Work as part of a team. Deliver on small engagement teams, learn from senior colleagues, and help develop those who join after you.
- Build the analysis behind the advice. Create the models, scenarios, dashboards, and data pipelines that turn raw data into clear answers.
- Put AI to work. Use large language models and AI agents to speed up monitoring, research, and scenario analysis on live projects.
- Help develop our offerings and platform. Work with Accenture's AI engineering teams to turn scenario planning, wargaming, and decision intelligence into productized, AI-enabled services, and to develop our AI Foresight platform.
- Sharpen our thinking between engagements. Alongside the client work, contribute to our monthly macro briefs and thought leadership, with the chance over time to publish under your own name.
- Travel as needed, varies by client and could be up to 80%
Here's what you need:
- Minimum of 3 years of experience delivering strategy, economics, or advisory work in consulting, corporate development, investment, or research. Including:
- A track record of delivering on client work: running a workstream in a team, hitting deadlines, and holding your own with a client.
- The ability to turn analysis into a decision, drawing out what macro and company data mean for a client's business.
- Demonstrated experience using AI tools to redesign and accelerate workflows, improve research and analysis, automate repetitive tasks, and enhance project delivery.
-
A bachelor's degree
What will make you stand out:
- A graduate degree in economics, finance, public policy, international relations, or management (or an MBA), or an advanced quantitative, computational, data science, or engineering background.
- Curiosity about macro and geopolitics, with a strong grasp of how the real economy connects to markets, sectors, and regions
- Experience with our core offerings: scenario planning, economic impact assessments, or foresight.
- AI and engineering depth, with priority given to developing AI-enabled analytical solutions: coding in Python and/or R, building models, dashboards, or data pipelines, and applying LLMs and AI agents to analytical workflows.
- Experience communicating with and advising C-suite or board audiences, or depth in a specific industry or region's political economy.
- Familiarity with tools like Python, R, SQL, Power BI, or Tableau, or econometrics packages such as Stata or EViews.

Strategy Consultant Jobs in New Jersey: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a strategy consultant in New Jersey?
Strategy consulting in New Jersey does not require a state-issued license, so the path centers on education and demonstrated analytical skills. Most employers expect at least a bachelor's degree in business, finance, economics, or engineering, with top-tier firms preferring candidates from MBA programs at Rutgers Business School or nearby institutions. Building a portfolio of case study work and securing internships with New Jersey-based consulting practices or corporate strategy teams accelerates entry into the field.
How much do strategy consultants make in New Jersey?
Strategy consultants in New Jersey earn a median of about $105,820 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $56,820 for the lowest 10% to over $175,670 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire strategy consultants in New Jersey?
Employers hiring strategy consultants in New Jersey right now include ZS Associates, ZS, and Infosys, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. New Jersey's concentration of pharmaceutical headquarters, financial services firms, and large corporate shared-services centers makes it one of the more consistent markets for in-house and external consulting roles on the East Coast.
Which New Jersey cities have the most strategy consultant jobs?
Princeton, Iselin, and Morristown have the most strategy consultant openings in New Jersey. Newark anchors demand through its financial services and professional services sectors, Princeton draws heavily from pharmaceutical and life sciences headquarters concentrated along the Route 1 corridor, and Bergen County benefits from its proximity to New York City headquarters that staff regional consulting functions from northern New Jersey offices.
Are there remote strategy consultant jobs in New Jersey?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 100% of strategy consultant openings tied to New Jersey are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting the desk-based and analytical nature of the work. Roles focused on research, financial modeling, and strategy deck development tend to be the most remote-compatible, while client-facing engagement management typically requires some on-site presence.
How can I get hired as a strategy consultant in New Jersey with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through a corporate strategy analyst or business analyst role at one of New Jersey's large pharmaceutical or financial services headquarters, where rotational programs at companies like Johnson & Johnson and Prudential Financial bring in recent graduates. Consulting firms with New Jersey offices also hire through campus recruiting at Rutgers, Princeton, and NJIT. Building casebook practice, earning a CFA or PMP credential, and targeting operations or project coordinator roles as lateral entry points all strengthen a candidate's profile.
