Senior Consultant - Senior Manager

Locations: New York & Boston (primary) | Other major US hubs considered Work model: HybridThe Opportunity We're seeing steady demand across Asset & Wealth Management and Alternatives for consultants who want to work on meaningful, front-to-back business transformation — without the bureaucracy and slow progression that often comes with larger consulting environments. These opportunities sit within established, high-growth consulting firms that combine the credibility of working with leading asset managers, private capital firms, and institutional investors, with a more entrepreneurial, hands-on culture. This is not volume hiring. These searches are calibre-led and focused on people who genuinely enjoy delivery, ownership, and client impact. Who This Is ForThis role is well suited to Senior Consultant, Manager, or early Senior Manager level professionals with experience in: Asset Management, Wealth Management, or Alternatives consulting Capital Markets or Investment Operations transformation Business-led change programmes with strong technology and data exposure You don't need a perfectly linear background — strong delivery experience and consulting fundamentals matter more than ticking every box. Typical Focus Areas Current-state assessments and target operating model design Front-to-back process transformation across investment, distribution, or operations Technology-enabled change (platforms, data, vendor solutions — not pure IT) Leading workstreams and managing small teams Client-facing delivery, workshops, and executive-ready outputs Contributing to practice growth, thought leadership, or proposal development (at Manager+ level) Background & Experience Consulting or advisory experience within or closely aligned to Financial Services Exposure to Asset Managers, Alternatives (PE, HF, Private Credit), Pension Funds, or Institutional clients Strong problem-solving, structuring, and communication skills Comfortable working in hybrid environments with client interaction Experience with operating models, process design, data, platforms, or transformation delivery is particularly relevant. Why These Roles AppealLess red tape and more ownership Faster progression for high performers Real exposure to senior clients and firm leadership Entrepreneurial cultures where impact is visible High-quality work without being "just another number"Interested? If you're based in New York or Boston and quietly open to exploring what the market looks like — or would value a comparison versus Big 4 or larger consultancies — I'm happy to have a confidential, exploratory conversation. Profiles outside these locations may also be considered depending on experience and fit.
