[Hiring] Strategy Consultant @Tyton Partners

Role Description

Are you passionate about making an impact on the education sector? Interested in working with companies, non-profits, institutions, and investors across the K-12, postsecondary, and corporate learning markets?

Tyton Partners is the leading strategy consulting and investment banking firm focused exclusively on education and workforce development. We're expanding our bench of project-based consultants. These are typically 4-to-12-week engagements, 20 to 45 hours per week depending on your availability, staffed as client needs arise. We're looking for people with strong consulting foundations who want flexible, rigorous work in a sector where the analysis you do connects directly to real-world outcomes.

As a project-based consultant, you will:

• Help clients understand their market by sizing industries, mapping competitive dynamics, and surfacing growth trends across PreK–12, postsecondary, corporate learning, and workforce markets.
• Build structure around hard questions through framework development, creating the conceptual scaffolding that turns a fuzzy strategic question into something actionable.
• Build narratives that matter through qualitative interviews and original survey research, surfacing stakeholder perspectives and unmet needs.
• Turn analysis into recommendations by synthesizing research, sector data, and financial modeling into clear, prioritized insights.
• Inform investment decisions on diligence engagements, shaping how sophisticated investors evaluate education sector opportunities.

Qualifications

• 2+ years of strategy consulting experience at a top-tier firm.
• Strong analytical and quantitative skills, with comfort building models and synthesizing data from multiple sources.
• The ability to structure and communicate complex ideas clearly in writing, in slide decks, and in rooms with senior stakeholders.
• A self-directed work style with the discipline to produce client-ready output with limited supervision.
• Collaborative instincts, comfortable receiving direction from partners and coaching junior team members.
• Genuine interest in education, workforce, or social impact; direct sector experience is a plus but not a requirement.

Requirements

• Proficiency building client-ready PowerPoint presentations strongly preferred; ThinkCell experience is a plus.
• Proficiency using Excel for market sizing and financial modeling strongly preferred.
• Experience designing and analyzing surveys preferred; Qualtrics familiarity is a plus.
• Exposure to M&A diligence or commercial due diligence work is a plus.
