Job description

Lead flexible thinking into practical delivery.

Some consultants love shaping the strategy. Others love making it happen. We’re looking for someone who enjoys both.

Flexiq is looking for a Lead Consultant who can take ownership of client engagements, bring structure to complex problems and turn good thinking into practical outcomes.

You’ll work directly with senior stakeholders, lead projects and workstreams, facilitate workshops and remain hands‑on in creating high-quality deliverables. You’ll also help us strengthen client relationships, develop our consulting capability and contribute to Flexiq’s continued growth.

What you’ll do

• Lead consulting engagements and workstreams from concept through to delivery.
• Build trusted relationships with clients and senior stakeholders.
• Facilitate workshops, governance forums and executive discussions.
• Develop practical strategies, business cases, recommendations and implementation plans.
• Mentor consultants and analysts and help strengthen the way Flexiq delivers.
• Identify opportunities to create more value for clients and grow our relationships.

What you’ll bring

• You’ll ideally have 5+ years' relevant professional experience, including strong client-facing, advisory or consulting experience.
• You’ll be a confident problem solver and communicator who can move comfortably between strategy, stakeholder engagement and hands‑on delivery. Experience across management or engineering consulting, infrastructure, utilities, energy or major projects will be particularly relevant.
• Tertiary qualifications in Engineering, Commerce, Business Management or a similar field.
• Post-graduate qualification or certifications will be highly regarded.

Why Flexiq?

We’re a boutique management consultancy with flexible thinking at the heart of how we work. You’ll get closer to clients, take greater ownership of your work and have the opportunity to help shape both your career and our growing business.

• Lead meaningful client engagements while remaining hands‑on in delivery.
• Work directly with senior decision-makers without layers of consulting hierarchy.
• Take real ownership of outcomes and client relationships.
• Help shape Flexiq, our methods, capability and future growth.
• Mentor talented people without the role initially carrying formal people‑management responsibilities.
• Access full‑time, part‑time or flexible arrangements by agreement.

If you’re looking for a consulting role where you can lead, deliver and help build something, we’d love to hear from you.
