Manager - Strategy and Technology Management Consultant

About Metis Strategy

Metis Strategy, a management and strategy consulting firm, focused on the intersection of business and technology, continues to grow and is looking for highly motivated individuals to join our team. We are trusted advisors to Fortune 500 and Global 1000 companies, helping them meet their most critical business objectives through tailored engagements and deep professional relationships. We work across industries on topics related to business & digital strategy and navigating organizational change.

We are an entrepreneurial, fast-growing firm headquartered in the Washington, D.C. area with offices in the San Francisco Bay Area and Dallas, Texas. The firm’s presence from coast to coast allows us to serve clients throughout the United States and internationally. In our 20+ year history, we have established a track record of making lasting impacts on organizational performance and helping executives improve business outcomes. In a career with Metis Strategy you will experience high growth as you encounter new challenges with each client engagement; have a high degree of autonomy to craft the direction of your work; and become empowered to work directly with thought-leaders, C-level clients, and other decision-makers.

Responsibilities of a Manager

As senior members of our team, Managers are project leaders, thought leaders, people leaders, and key contributors to the growth and development of the firm.

As a Manager, you will lead small teams in helping analyze organizations’ current capabilities, evaluate opportunities for improvement, and partner with clients to develop and implement a roadmap to achieve their desired future state vision. Specifically, you will leverage the firm’s analytical frameworks and methodologies on various aspects of client engagements, working closely with senior and junior members of the firm to unpack complex situations and develop lasting recommendations for our clients. In particular, you will be responsible for:

• Leading small teams of junior consultants to complete client engagements by overseeing and conducting primary and secondary research and collecting and analyzing data
• Creating a structured synthesis and model based on new and established frameworks and methodologies, including the ability to customize these to clients’ unique needs
• Developing clear and concise client presentations and communicating actionable recommendations to executive clients and their teams
• Providing guidance and structure to Metis Strategy team members and stakeholders in the broader ecosystem, especially in complex, dynamic, and often ambiguous contexts
• Leading by exemplifying firm culture and by identifying professional development opportunities for fellow team members

In addition to core consulting responsibilities, Metis Strategy offers a unique opportunity for Managers to help grow the intellectual, functional, economic, and geographic footprint of a thriving technology and business advisory firm. For example, Managers might:

• Provide entrepreneurial and innovative thoughts about how to solidify, grow, and scale a relationship-driven professional services business
• Help develop new methodologies, frameworks, and other intellectual property
• Contribute to intellectual capital development by turning research and project-based intellectual property into white papers, articles, and other publishable materials
• Become involved in or assume leadership for internal tools and capability development

• Education : Bachelor’s Degree, preferably in the areas of business, finance, technology, or related fields. A graduate degree is not required but is considered a plus if in a relevant field
• People Management : A proven track record of working effectively to successfully manage small teams as well as complex workstreams in fast-paced environments with aggressive timelines
• Location: Located within the Eastern time zone. Day-to-day, we work fully remotely but some clients require us to travel to their offices. We also value time when we can get together as a team and host quarterly in-person offsites to maintain our collaborative culture

What We Look For

• Leadership : A healthy balance of intellectual curiosity, confidence, humility, creativity, and empathy, with the ability to coach junior team members and senior clients
• Relevant Experience: Technology and business acumen with concrete examples of having helped companies solve complex business problems using a combination of people, process, and technology solutions

• C-Level Interactions : Ability to produce polished and compelling analyses and recommendations for C-level initiatives
• Relationship Orientation : Willingness to learn from, and collaborate with, others to build strong relationships with clients and team members
• Motivation : Entrepreneurial grit with an outcome-oriented approach to business and an energetic “roll up your sleeves” mentality
