About the role
The Service Delivery role owns the health of our client engagements after the contract is signed—scope, schedule, staffing, quality, and the client relationship itself. You are the part of the team a client calls when something is going well, and the part of the response when it isn't. This is a hands-on role at a firm without layers. You'll work directly with our delivery leads and consultants, sit in front of client executives, and have real influence over how we staff and run our work. If you want a role where you manage a dashboard and forward status decks, this isn't it.
