Role Overview

One of our clients is partnering with a leading AI research lab to engage experienced management consulting professionals on a project basis.

This opportunity is ideal for professionals who can work independently, think in structured frameworks, and collaborate asynchronously in a deliverables-driven environment.

• Review, edit, and benchmark AI-generated outputs such as market analyses, strategic recommendations, operating models, and executive summaries.
• Create high-quality reference examples (e.g., issue trees, analytical models, slide outlines) that reflect professional consulting standards.
• Identify logical gaps, unsupported assumptions, and weak reasoning in AI outputs; document failure patterns and improvement guidance.
• Collaborate asynchronously with researchers and fellow contributors using structured documentation and written feedback.

Ideal Qualifications

• 2+ years of experience at a top-tier management consulting firm or reputable boutique consultancy.
• Strong understanding of hypothesis-driven problem solving and executive-level synthesis.
• Advanced skills in PowerPoint and Excel.
• Experience with market sizing, financial/operating analysis, and qualitative research.
• Excellent written communication and structured thinking skills.
• Ability to manage time effectively and meet deadlines in a remote setting.

Role Details

• Expected commitment: 10+ hours per week.
• Deliverables-driven structure with defined quality standards.
• Fully remote and flexible scheduling.
• Ongoing support available for best practices and clarifications.

Application Process

• Submit a brief resume or LinkedIn profile outlining your consulting background and areas of expertise.
• Complete a short skills questionnaire.
• A time-boxed exercise may be used to assess fit.
• Selected candidates will be contacted with next steps and additional project details.
• All qualified applicants will be considered without regard to legally protected characteristics. Reasonable accommodations are available upon request.

• Fully remote work on a flexible schedule.
