Conduct proactive risk assessments and develop mitigation strategies to ensure project continuity.

Client Relationship & Business Development

Act as the primary point of contact for C-suite and executive stakeholders (CIO, CEO, COO).
Lead "farming" efforts to expand existing client accounts and "hunting" efforts to win new business.
Craft compelling engagement strategies and communication plans that align stakeholders across all levels of an organization.

Team Development & Leadership

Mastery of project management (PMP, Agile/Scrum) and/or change management frameworks (Prosci ADKAR, Kotter’s 8-Step).
Deep experience in Energy, Oil & Gas, EPC, or Private Equity is highly preferred.
Ability to translate data into actionable insights; experience with AI readiness or digital transformation is a plus.

Skills & Attributes

Ability to use data-driven insights to illuminate the path forward.
Lead and shape proposal strategy, including solution design, pricing approach, and value positioning aligned to client needs and firm capabilities.
Drive business development efforts by cultivating client relationships, identifying new opportunities, and selling follow-on and expanded engagements.
Stellar interpersonal skills with the ability to captivate and inspire audiences of all sizes.
A leadership style focused on supporting teams and leading by example.
