We are looking for a self-starter and fast learner. You must be very organized and love teamwork to fit well into our corporate culture.

  • This person must be able to take direction from stakeholders at different levels and produce quality work without detailed oversight.
  • This position will assist and manage workstreams within various client projects, such as operational and opportunity assessments, strategic sourcing, spend assessments, and other procurement and supply chain consulting activities for various consulting and internal projects.
  • Consultants report to a Project Manager for each project.
  • Supply chain and procurement assessments : interviewing, modeling and analytics, report writing.
  • Strategic Sourcing Initiatives : scoping, market and supplier research, RFx (development, management, and evaluation), and negotiations.

  • Undergraduate Degree in Supply Chain Management, Business, Economics, Engineering, Finance, or equivalent from a top-tier school.
