• Contribute to client‑facing deliverables including process documentation, solution design documents, and training materials.
• Own project planning and delivery tracking for engagements, including scope management, stakeholder updates, and risk escalation.

Leadership

• Manage and coordinate a team of model builders across project workstreams, assigning tasks, reviewing deliverables, and ensuring on‑time, on‑quality execution.
• Support consultants on their career goals, provide coaching on desired behaviors, and share technical knowledge and best practices.
• Shape the team’s mindset, building a human‑centric performance culture, communications, and client‑facing skills.

Company Growth

• Develop reusable technology assets, proof‑of‑concept models, best‑practice frameworks, and delivery accelerators.
• Contribute to proposals, RFP responses, and pre‑sales activities.
• Stay current on industry trends in EPM, data engineering, AI/ML applications in planning, and SaaS platform developments.
• Maintain relevant platform certifications (Pigment, Anaplan, or Varicent).
• Lead internal knowledge‑sharing, define model‑building standards, and actively mentor and develop junior consultants and model builders.

What We're Looking For

Required

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, Finance, Business Administration, or a related field.
• 4+ years of experience in technology consulting, systems implementation, or enterprise software delivery working on EPM tools.
• Deep hands‑on expertise in at least one EPM or planning platform (Pigment, Anaplan, Varicent, SAP BPC, Oracle PBCS, or similar), with a track record of delivering end‑to‑end implementations.
• Solid understanding of business processes in one or more of: sales planning, incentive compensation, financial planning, or data management.
• Experience working within Agile / Scrum delivery methodologies.
• Strong analytical thinking and structured problem‑solving ability.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English, with the confidence to engage directly with international clients.

Preferred

• Familiarity with SQL, Python, or other scripting/programming languages.
• Experience with data integration tools or ETL processes.
• Prior work with global clients or cross‑regional project teams.

Benefits

• Competitive salary—benchmarked to top‑tier consulting firms hiring in India.

• Remote‑first / hybrid flexibility—work from where you’re most productive.
• Collaborative, low‑hierarchy team—your ideas and contributions matter regardless of title.
• Five core values: Agile Thinking, Cultivation of Diversity, Grounded Humility, Inherent Curiosity, and Proactive Engagement.
