  • Experience: 8+ years leading strategic, customer-facing, or operational projects; at least 2 years working at a top strategy consulting firm, working on initiatives such as value creation, process improvement, M&A / post-merger integration, supply chain or operating model design, or business unit / growth strategy.
  • Analytical Strength: Proven ability to analyze complex data, distill insights, communicate the “so what,” and drive data-informed action.
  • Communication: Comfortable influencing and engaging stakeholders across all levels—from senior executives to frontline teams.
  • Storytelling: Strong presentation and storytelling skills, with the ability to craft both clear, concise individual slides and compelling end-to-end narratives using data
  • Tools: Expert in Microsoft Office suite; familiarity with modern project management and visualization tools (Smartsheet, Asana, Tableau, Power BI, etc.) is a plus.
  • Mindset: Thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment; energized by solving complex problems and driving growth.
