Engagement Manager

You’re an experienced strategy consulting manager. You love consulting – solving these hard problems. But what kind of projects are you working on? What are you still learning? Will you always be on the road? You want to turn your talent and time to projects that yield a better world, not just increased profits. You want to work in an environment that gives more freedom of expression and with a team that is less hierarchical, more supportive, and more fun. It’s risky, but is there a boutique firm that is right for me?

As an engagement manager, you might be expected to:

• Facilitate meetings with global-level stakeholders to achieve alignment on a strategic vision
• Succinctly pitch and iterate on project goals with key counterparts
• Project manage for complex multi-organization workstreams
• Present and distill complex health data
• Understand data nuances and communicate main messages

This position is Seattle- or Washington, D.C.- based with a flexible WFH policy.

Recruitment process details

1. When you apply, you will be asked to offer details about yourself and your right-to-work in the United States. Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship now or in the future
2. Based on your initial application, you may then be asked to complete a global health consulting case study
3. Based on your initial application and case study, we may then invite you to a first round of interviews with team members who will ask you questions about your experience, motivation in applying, and findings from your case study. We're looking for evidence of your intellectual strengths, creativity, leadership qualities, and ability to work in a team
4. Successful applicants will then normally have a second round of interviews (focused on what you can bring to the team and what you would like to work on) before a decision is made about a potential offer

Please bear with us—everyone working on our recruitment is a project team member, so finding availability for the right interview experience can take time, e.g., team members best placed to meet with you and answer your questions.
