About This Job
People leadership is the core of this role. Approximately 70% of your focus will be on your team: coaching, developing, and holding a pod of 6+ IT Consultants to a high standard across a fast-paced, multi-client environment. The remaining 30% keeps you close to the technical work, not as an individual contributor, but as the senior voice who can step in, assess, and guide resolution when it matters. This is a role for someone who is energized by making others better. You will manage a team that operates with a high degree of autonomy across different client environments every day. They do not need to be micromanaged. They need a coach who sets clear expectations, removes blockers, and holds the bar.
