Sr. Consultant, Engagement Manager

IBM • Sandy Springs, GA • 8h ago

Introduction

At IBM, work is more than a job - it's a calling: To build. To design. To code. To consult. To think along with clients and sell. To make markets. To invent. To collaborate. Not just to do something better, but to attempt things you've never thought possible. Are you ready to lead in this new era of technology and solve some of the world's most challenging problems? If so, lets talk.

Your role and responsibilities

The Sr. Consultant, Engagement Management is a billable, client-facing role within our consulting firm. This position requires direct interaction with clients to drive project success while ensuring high-quality delivery. As part of a consulting environment, the Engagement Manager will be responsible for managing client relationships, overseeing project execution, and contributing to revenue through billable [1] work.

You will have the opportunity to build on your proven leadership skills and leverage your interest in inspiring others, building strong relationships, and creating a true followership. You'd be joining a team of passionate, forward thinking engineers and data scientists who are charting a new course. In a collaborative team setting, you'll work closely with others but also operate autonomously with little direction.

Your superior problem solving, analytical, quantitative and conceptual thinking skills and strong interpersonal and communication skills will ensure successful client projects and team performance. You will find a culture rich in collaboration, personal development and one that recognizes and pursues the zest for life.

What we are looking for:

We are looking for people experienced with project, program, and people management skills, typically leading a team of 3 - 5 consultants on projects and will help our clients in the private, public, and social sectors solve some of their most pressing data challenges.

You will work with a range of experts in Hakkoda, from data scientists to architects to software and app designers. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience working with various data models. Strong communication skills and a proven track record for coaching and growing individuals is essential for this role.
