ABOUT THE ROLE
Companies that were born in the last 20 years define and deliver value in fundamentally different ways those founded in the decades prior. For the vast majority of historically successful enterprises, the key challenge they now face is how they might create uncommon growth and thrive under the new market, customer and employee demands of the 21st Century.
Our Senior Engagement Managers are responsible for playing both key commercial, client service and firm development roles. They help both to win new clients and to grow our relationships with existing clients. They provide leadership to the teams and younger tenured consultants and they take an active role in firm initiatives. This individual will be an inspirational leader to clients, to other Prophet consultants, and to industry leaders more broadly.
