This role applies structured consulting methodologies-such as Lean Six Sigma, operational diagnostics, and problem solving frameworks-to evaluate client processes, surface inefficiencies, and recommend actionable solutions.

• Analyze client operations across commercial, public sector, and higher-education environments, including community colleges subject to state and federal reporting requirements (e.g., funding models, accountability metrics, enrollment reporting, compliance deliverables)
• Assess current-state reporting processes (e.g., student data, course outcomes, credential tracking, funding eligibility), identifying gaps, inefficiencies, and improvement opportunities
• Work with data extracted from systems such as Ellucian Colleague, including understanding of tables, data structures, workflows, integration points, and reporting constraints
• Use BI tools such as Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, or similar to build insights that support regulatory reporting, operational performance evaluation, and student-success analytics
• Support problem-solving sessions and prepare structured analyses to answer priority client questions
• Develop high-quality client-ready deliverables including presentations, process maps, operating models, insights summaries, and recommendations
• Manage multiple workstreams and tasks with attention to timelines, quality expectations, and budget considerations
• Communicate progress, issues, and insights to senior team members through timely, clear updates
• Build strong working relationships with client personnel at appropriate levels and demonstrate professionalism in all interactions
• Exhibit ownership, initiative, and follow-through, driving tasks to completion with limited supervision
• Maintain awareness of engagement risks, deliverable quality, and client expectations
• Adhere to firm policies, professional ethics, and consulting best practices
• Perform other duties as assigned

To be successful in this role, the following qualifications are required:

• Bachelor's degree in business, economics, engineering, data analytics, operations management, or a related field
• 0-2 years of experience in management consulting, operations analysis, or similar project-based work
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to structure ambiguous problems and interpret both qualitative and quantitative data
• Experience (preferred) working with junior/community college reporting requirements-including enrollment reporting, funding formulas, accountability metrics, or state-mandated submissions
• Familiarity or hands-on experience with Ellucian Colleague (SIS/ERP)-including navigation, data structures, reporting extraction, or operational workflows
• Ability to translate education-sector data and regulatory requirements into dashboards, KPIs, and operational insights using Fabric, Power BI, or related analytics tools
• Proficiency with business intelligence tools (e.g., Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, Tableau) to build dashboards, analyze datasets, and generate insights
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including building executive-level presentations
• Strong interpersonal skills and client service orientation
• Ability to prioritize and manage multiple tasks simultaneously while meeting deadlines
• Demonstrated initiative, ownership, and ability to work both independently and collaboratively
• Prior project work involving community colleges or higher-education institutions, particularly related to operational process improvement, funding optimization, student success reporting, or accreditation support
• Exposure to state-specific reporting frameworks (e.g., Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, HB8 outcome-based funding, IPEDS, or similar frameworks in other states)
• Experience using or supporting SIS/ERP solutions such as Ellucian Colleague, with the ability to interpret data structures and support analytics/data-quality efforts
