Day Rate - $800 -$1100 (+Expenses) for Consultant & Higher for Manager Level (d.o.e)

This role is not producing strategy reports..... Consultants are on the shop floor, in the warehouse, at the facility - doing the work alongside the management team, not watching from a distance.

We are building a bench of strong, US-based operational consultants (OPEX), who can be deployed quickly onto client engagements across North America. Projects are typically located in the US, with deployment from your home city. All travel, accommodation and per diem are fully covered. This is 5 days a week on-site, driving improvements.

This is a contractor engagement model. Project durations vary — shorter diagnostic assignments of two to three weeks through to longer implementation projects of two to three months. The right person will be comfortable with a fast-on, high-impact style of engagement.

What You'll Be Working On:

• Operational due diligence assessments ahead of PE acquisitions
• Post-close value creation and rapid EBITDA improvement
• Throughput improvement and capacity debottlenecking
• Cost reduction, shift structure optimisation and overhead elimination
• Working capital and inventory rationalisation
• Business consolidation and site integration for roll-up platforms
• Embedding KPI tracking, daily controls and performance routines

Who They're Looking For:

The ideal candidate has two to four years of hands-on operational consulting experience, though strong Manager-level candidates will also be considered. Background from execution-focused consultancies - the kind where you are physically on the shop floor rather than in a conference room is strongly preferred.

Essential Experience

• Track record of delivering measurable operational improvement on-site in industrial environments - factories, warehouses, production facilities
• Experience owning and leading workstreams end-to-end, not just supporting analysis
• Ability to diagnose complex operational problems and translate them into clear, actionable plans
• Strong with data - Excel, operational KPIs, production metrics
• Comfortable working directly with shop floor teams and senior stakeholders alike

The Ideal Mindset:

• You want to see your work implemented and measured, not filed away
• You are comfortable operating in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
• You have a high-ownership mentality - if something isn't working, you fix it
• You enjoy working in industrial settings and aren't precious about getting stuck in
• You're interested in private equity and want to build exposure to that world

This Won't Work If:

• You are not willing to travel Monday to Friday on a full-time basis
• Your consulting experience is purely strategy with no on-the-ground implementation
• Industry only experience - without Consulting
• You have not worked directly in operational environments

If you come from a hands-on operational consultancy and are open to US travel, we'd like to hear from you - even if you're not actively looking. xywuqvp Initial conversations are entirely confidential.
