For more than 25 years, we have partnered with many of the world's largest organisations across consumer goods, retail, healthcare, technology, industrials and professional services. We work with executive teams to solve complex commercial challenges, drive organisational change and deliver measurable business impact.

Our work sits at the intersection of strategy, transformation, organisational effectiveness and negotiation excellence. By combining deep consulting expertise with world-leading negotiation capability, we help organisations improve how critical business decisions are made, influenced and executed.

As our Asian business continues to grow, we are looking for exceptional consultants to join our team. This opportunity is particularly suited to professionals from strategy consulting, management consulting, commercial transformation, organisational consulting, change management or specialist advisory backgrounds who want to apply their consulting skills in a distinctive and highly impactful area.

As a Senior Management Consultant, you will work closely with senior client stakeholders to diagnose business challenges, develop recommendations and deliver transformational consulting engagements that create lasting commercial impact.

You will combine strategic thinking with practical implementation, helping clients improve performance through a combination of commercial strategy, organisational transformation, capability development and negotiation consulting.

• Leading and delivering high-impact consulting engagements for global and regional clients.
• Advising senior leaders and executive stakeholders on complex commercial and organisational challenges.

This is a highly visible role offering significant exposure to C-suite stakeholders, global organisations and complex business transformation programmes. Extensive travel throughout Australia and internationally is an integral part of the role.

What makes this role different?

Unlike many consulting roles, our work does not stop at strategy and recommendations. We partner closely with clients to drive behavioural change, strengthen organisational capability and deliver measurable commercial outcomes.

Negotiation is one of the most under leveraged drivers of business performance. Our consultants help organisations improve how they influence stakeholders, create value, manage complex commercial relationships and execute critical business decisions.

This combination of consulting, transformation and negotiation expertise gives our clients a unique competitive advantage and provides our consultants with exposure to some of the most commercially significant challenges organisations face today.
