Job description

Consultant, Business Transformation Consulting

About Our Firm:

Granite Solutions Groupe provides financial services decision makers with people and solutions that deliver. Our clients count on us to deliver the right talent at the right time to achieve critical business results. We leverage our industry knowledge and passion for client priorities to deliver human capital solutions.

GSG was founded in 1998 as a consulting firm delivering project management and technology solutions for the financial services industry. GSG now has a global presence, with team members deployed across the U.S. at Fortune 1000 companies and high-performing Fintech firms.

High-caliber consultants are the face of GSG at our client organizations and offices. We value the deep relationships we have with our consultants that enable us to place them in roles where their skills will have an immediate impact. The GSG consulting team is comprised of diverse, experienced, driven, and dynamic contributors who excel at getting things done.

About the Opportunity:

GSG is seeking a highly skilled Banking Integration Consultant to join our consulting team. This consultant will serve as a hands-on integration advisor supporting a large-scale banking transformation initiative across Retail and Product workstreams, with a focus on target operating model design, core conversion readiness, process optimization, and cost synergy identification.

This individual will perform detailed analysis, document current and future-state processes, identify integration risks and opportunities, and develop actionable recommendations to help achieve the $62MM cost savings target.

Responsibilities:

• Lead detailed analysis of Retail Banking functions, including branch strategy, branch operations, staffing models, and training requirements.
• Support Product workstreams, including deposits, small business, credit cards, and mortgages, to identify operating model, process, and organizational synergies.
• Assess impacts of core conversion and integration decisions on customer experience, operational processes, staffing, controls, training, and product delivery.
• Document current-state and future-state processes, identify gaps, and develop implementation recommendations.
• Quantify savings opportunities and develop low-, medium-, and high-risk options, including associated benefits, trade-offs, dependencies, and execution risks.
• Partner with business leaders to validate assumptions, identify decision points, and drive issue resolution.
• Track risks, actions, and benefits realization, ensuring recommendations are actionable and aligned with integration objectives.

Preferred Experience & Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Finance, Economics, Management, or a related field.
• Experience supporting bank mergers, acquisitions, or financial services integration initiatives, ideally from the acquiring bank or internal business side.
• Strong Retail or Commercial Banking experience within a highly regulated financial services environment.
• Hands-on experience with core banking conversion or large-scale banking transformation programs.
• Experience developing current-state and future-state operating models across people, process, technology, and operations.
• Experience with business process mapping, gap analysis, product/process rationalization, and operational readiness.
• Ability to work independently with limited direction and adapt quickly as integration priorities and requirements evolve.
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to facilitate working sessions, navigate complex conversations, ask the right questions, and make practical recommendations.
• Consulting experience is preferred, but candidates should demonstrate hands-on execution experience rather than purely high-level strategy work.
• Experience with retail banking products such as deposits, debit/credit cards, mortgages, and small business banking is preferred.

Employee Benefits:

GSG is excited to offer its consultants a robust option of benefits which include comprehensive medical, dental, vision and prescription coverage. You will receive company-paid life insurance. In addition, we hope you will take advantage of eligible commuter benefits-like paying for work-related public transit and parking with pre-tax dollars. Save for your retirement with pre-tax contributions that go directly into your 401K. We also care about your pets with several options for pet insurance, discount card and prescriptions.

GSG’s Commitment to Diversity:

As a diverse-owned business, GSG is committed to creating a diverse workforce, and we are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status.
