About the role
Associate Principal driving AI strategic advisory engagements and transformation agendas for multiple clients, with path to becoming fractional Chief AI Transformation Officer in a high-growth AI services venture.
Responsibilities
- Drive AI strategic advisory engagements end-to-end. You run point strategic engagements that set a company's transformation agenda or running diligence on an asset
- Support live deals and the selling motion. Work alongside Principals on active pursuits — joining discovery calls, shaping proposals, helping manage relationships — and learn how we scope, price, and position our work.
- Build your network. Through engagements and deal support, build durable relationships with executives and investors.
- Be a high-utility player. As an early-stage company, the work extends beyond any one engagement — you'll jump into adjacent streams like partnership development, thought leadership, or internal tooling and process improvement.
Qualifications
- High ownership, comfort with ambiguity. Engagement windows are tight, and you drive the work forward without waiting to be told what to do.
- Learning agility and analytical horsepower. You ramp quickly on an unfamiliar industry, identify what matters, and form a defensible point of view — turning pattern-matching across engagements into a compounding advantage.
- Crisp communication, written and verbal. You translate technical AI concepts into business language that lands with executives and deal teams.
- Relationship-building instinct. You build rapport with people and are energized, not drained, by client-facing work.
- AI-native. You're genuinely interested in AI and have a working understanding of what generative AI can and can't do.
- Low ego, high resourcefulness. You're both a doer and a strategist.
