About the role
We are looking for a Senior Operations Consultant with experience in operations enhancement and procurement from a consulting background. This position is ideal for a consultant who has integrated AI into client projects and can showcase how AI tools have boosted analysis, decision-making, implementation, or operational outcomes. The ideal candidate should have a background in an established consulting firm that focuses on operations improvement and procurement or strategic sourcing projects. This role is remote with the requirement of easy access to a major airport. Travel typically commences on Sundays or Mondays during active projects, with consultants returning on Thursdays and working remotely on Fridays.
Responsibilities:
- Lead operations and procurement enhancement projects at client sites
- Analyze performance in manufacturing, plant operations, warehouses, supply chain, equipment, and sourcing
- Utilize AI tools to uncover opportunities, speed up analysis, solve operational issues, and aid in implementation
- Create actionable suggestions backed by thorough operational and financial analysis
- Collaborate with client executives and frontline staff to implement improvements
- Oversee project workstreams, deliverables, timelines, and measurable outcomes
Requirements:
- Recent involvement in a well-known operations-focused consulting firm
- Demonstrated experience in procurement or strategic sourcing consulting
- Hands-on experience in enhancing operations within manufacturing, supply chain, plants, warehouses, or distribution settings
- Proven track record of applying AI in consulting projects, operational analysis, or business enhancement initiatives
- Strong analytical, client-facing, and implementation capabilities
- Capability to travel around 80% during active projects
- Experience with corporate-only, GPO, contract, or independent consulting does not satisfy the consulting background required for this role
- Must be legally eligible to work in the US without need for employer sponsorship
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
