Propeller is a people-focused management consulting firm that helps individuals, teams, and organizations thrive in change. Organizations hire us to solve problems, inspire transformation, and drive change. We work with clients to align teams and priorities, clear hurdles, and deliver customized solutions. And in doing so, Propeller helps spark, regain, and accelerate the most impactful and energizing force we know : momentum.

Our clients are generally large and mid-size organizations in the retail, tech, energy and utilities, and public sector industries. These organizations are where we drive the most impact, but we serve all different types of clients. We have teams in Portland, San Francisco, and Denver - and are growing into Dallas and Minneapolis.

While this role primarily focuses on strategy and operations, our consultants may also contribute to a diverse range of projects. We believe in harnessing your unique expertise to elevate every project, even if it diverges from your primary focus. With solid skills in project management, change management, and process improvement, you'll transition between assignments, bringing fresh ideas and strategic thinking to each project.

A wide variety of backgrounds and experiences may be aligned to the work we do.

A real person reads all our applications, and your background and experience will be assessed holistically.

More About This Opportunity

We believe in fairly and equitably compensating our employees for their time, skills, and experience. The base salary for this position ranges from $123,000 to $152,000. Individual salaries are determined by factors such as experience, specific skill sets, marketability to clients, and internal pay equity. While hiring at the top of the range is not typical to allow for future salary growth, our base pay ranges are reviewed and updated annually based on performance. Our compensation plan also includes a generous benefits package.

We believe being physically present with each other and our clients strengthens our relationships, promotes creativity and innovation, and ultimately produces a stronger, more durable result for our clients and ourselves. Propeller consultants typically work in a hybrid model, spending a portion of their week working from their client site, local Propeller office, and home. In some cases, consultants work full-time at their client sites. Exact schedules vary by client engagement. Applicants should currently live in the area where the job is posted or plan to relocate upon hire.

We strive to keep consultants rooted in their local community, minimizing out-of-market travel. This is balanced with an all-firm staffing model and a desire to accommodate growing client demand for in-person work. While some travel may be necessary, it is capped at 25% for this role. We prioritize a tailored approach to travel, taking into consideration individual preferences in project assignments.

The hiring process typically involves four interviews over 46 weeks. However, the timeline for this role may vary depending on our clients' evolving needs. Please note that any offers extended for this position are contingent upon an available project, and as such, start dates may vary. We value transparency throughout the hiring process and will keep you informed of any updates regarding your application or the role's timeline as they arise.
