Job description

About the Practice

If you have spent the last 10–20 years in corporate consulting, commercial sales, HR operations, or executive advisory, you know the reality: the reward for high performance is usually more meetings, deeper corporate bureaucracy, and an arbitrary salary ceiling.

We partner with experienced, high-agency professionals to launch and operate independent advisory practices distributing tier‑one personal leadership, executive mindset, and commercial sovereignty curriculums. You leverage an established, global enterprise infrastructure rather than spending 18 months building courseware, systems, and content from scratch.

Core Responsibilities

• Conduct direct, 10-to-15-minute qualification calls with inbound professional candidates evaluating career transitions and leadership assets.
• Facilitate candidate evaluations against structured alignment rubrics (evaluating coachability, professional pedigree, and financial readiness).
• Direct qualified clients through digital briefing frameworks and manage the closing and onboarding pipeline.
• Maintain complete autonomy over your calendar, practice development, and client workflow.

Candidate Profile

• Background: 5+ years in management consulting, corporate sales, executive search, L&OD, or business ownership.
• Communication: Direct, composed, and comfortable holding boundaries on qualification calls without resorting to aggressive pitches.
• Mindset: You treat this as an independent enterprise, not a remote job where you wait for tasks to be assigned.

Operating Realities (Read Before Applying)

• Classification: This engagement is structured strictly as an independent consulting contract (1099). There is no guaranteed base salary, hourly draw, or employer-sponsored benefits.
• Operating Overhead: As an independent consultancy, you are responsible for maintaining your own operational setup and self-funding your client-acquisition and business development tools.
• Performance Revenue: Income is derived directly from client transaction values, offering uncapped upside and immediate contract disbursements per completed engagement.
