This is a hands-on advisory role for a consultant who understands both the business and technical dimensions of AI deployment and can help organizations build the infrastructure, governance, and workflows needed to extract measurable value from AI investments.

  • Define AI governance frameworks including data access policies, model oversight protocols, and risk management standards
  • Identify and prioritize high-ROI AI use cases within finance, accounting, operations, and client service delivery
  • Partner with technology vendors and internal IT to evaluate, select, and configure AI tools appropriate to the client's scale and infrastructure
  • Translate AI strategy into role-level workflow changes and lead cross-functional working sessions to design new operating procedures
  • Build internal AI capability by advising on hiring profiles, team structures, and upskilling programs
  • Establish dashboards and reporting cadences to track AI initiative performance against business outcomes
  • Serve as a thought partner and strategic advisor to senior leadership throughout the engagement

Qualifications:

  • 10+ years of experience in strategy, operations, or management consulting with at least 3 years focused on AI or advanced analytics implementation
  • Demonstrated ability to operationalize AI strategies within finance, accounting, or professional services environments
  • Experience building or advising on AI governance structures and responsible AI policies
  • Strong command of the AI and automation tool landscape relevant to mid-market organizations (workflow automation, GenAI productivity tools, data analytics platforms)
  • Ability to work at both the strategic and operational level, translating executive vision into actionable execution plans
  • Excellent communication and facilitation skills with experience driving alignment across executive teams and functional leaders
