  • Intersect with various functions including sales, legal, finance, and delivery to act as a strategic advisor to help optimize deal flow along with sales and contracting cycles, working most closely with the Business and legal.
  • Provide authoritative guidance to align business arrangements with firm policies and risk tolerances.
  • Drive initiatives related to risk and quality for the Operate engagement model, including developing best practices for :

  • Strategy and guidance around complex hybrid services engagements with third party technologies and subcontractors involved
  • Identification and facilitation of resolution of Independence issues
  • Commercial / financial issues and implications associated with certain Operate constructs (e.g., complex invoicing methodologies; investments, rebates, and "sticky deal constructs")
  • Mitigate delivery quality risks during proposal development, during contracting, at engagement startup, and throughout service delivery for Operate engagements.
  • Ongoing and Post-Execution Risk Management and Contracting Support : Assist with ongoing contracting, risk management, and mitigation support for ongoing contracting requirements - SOWs, Change Orders, amendments, and renewals.
  • Facilitate continued compliance with contractually required policies and processes, non-standard obligations and restrictions, and with the firms internal policies.
  • Provide coaching, guidance, and mitigation suggestions through the engagement lifecycle to Business leaders on critical risk and quality issues.
  • Knowledge Management and Training Support :

  • Drive creation of reusable artifacts and templates, including checklists, modular contract language, and recommended internal processes related to Operate-specific services.
  • Support strategic initiatives pertaining to development / updating of processes, tools, and templates to improve overall risk management and contracting practices and to help drive adoption of such processes, tools, and templates.
  • A successful candidate will possess these skills :

  • Experience in writing and reviewing scope of work documents, with a focus on incorporating actionable and measurable guidance to address specific risks around delivery execution
  • Proven willingness to listen and learn, and a consistent record of driving results and making and explaining appropriate decisions (even when this leads to tough business discussions)
  • Strong understanding of professional services contracting lifecycle, with an emphasis on technology services
  • Proven track record influencing diverse sets of stakeholders and driving common outcomes, with a strong understanding of commercial contracting processes, including terms and conditions
  • Outstanding verbal / written communication, collaboration, interpersonal, and negotiation skills to lead an environment driven by customer service and teamwork

  • Diverse network, with knowledge of cross-industry and cross-portfolio issues that impact QRM
  • Ability to bring fresh ideas and thinking to help QRM serve the changing needs of Consulting Services
