Senior Management Consultant

We are seeking a Senior Management Consultant who embodies a rare balance: the analytical rigour and execution discipline of a hands-on operational doer, combined with the strategic influence to engage, collaborate, build trust, and advise senior leadership.

You will work directly at the intersection of strategy and execution—walking client facilities, conducting root-cause assessments, facilitating cross-functional workshops, and operationalizing change alongside client teams. You will serve as an individual contributor and work-stream lead, taking accountability for end-to-end transformation initiatives from initial diagnostic to sustainable performance realization.

We welcome candidates coming from Operations, Supply Chain, Logistics, Retail, or Private Equity, as well as experienced internal process improvement consultants.

The ideal candidate will possess a collaborative mindset, high emotional intelligence, and a deep commitment to serving clients with integrity and humility. We emphasize influence and comfort engaging with C-suite stakeholders to drive meaningful change. Above all, you value contributing to and thriving within a strong, positive team culture aligned to our firm’s values.

Role Location and Travel: This role requires a hybrid work model, with a minimum of two days per week onsite at our office in Etobicoke, combined with remote work from home. Candidates must be eligible to travel and work under a TN1 Visa, as approximately 20-30% travel across North America is expected as part of this role.

Compensation Package:

• Base salary: $100,000 - $150,000.
• Performance Bonus: An annual bonus with a target range of 20% to 50% of your base salary, based on individual and company performance.
• The final offer will be determined based on the candidate's relevant experience, skills, and qualifications. This is part of our comprehensive rewards program, which also includes health coverage and 4 weeks off, including personal days.
