About the Practice
Berkeley Research Group is launching a new Financial Services Operations & Technology practice, with an initial focus on Commercial and Consumer Banking. We help financial institutions improve how they operate by combining deep banking experience with AI-enabled delivery.
This is an opportunity to help build a new practice within an established consulting firm.

Everyone on the team is expected to contribute beyond client delivery by helping recruit top talent, develop new offerings, contribute to thought leadership, and continually improve how we deliver work as the practice grows.
The Roles

We are hiring at two levels:
Associate Director - You own client engagements from proposal through delivery. You build senior client relationships, shape and scope the work, lead delivery teams, and are accountable for client outcomes, engagement success, and growing long-term client relationships. You also help build the practice through business development, recruiting, developing new offerings, mentoring others, and contributing to thought leadership.
Senior Managing Consultant - You lead the delivery of complex engagement workstreams. You work closely with clients, guide consulting teams, develop high-quality deliverables, and translate findings into practical recommendations and implementation roadmaps. You also help build the practice through recruiting, developing new offerings, contributing to thought leadership, and improving how we work.

• Assess current operations, design future-state operating models, and develop practical implementation roadmaps.

• Support technology-enabled transformation, including vendor evaluation, implementation, and business readiness.
• Develop high-quality client deliverables and executive presentations.
• Build trusted client relationships and communicate recommendations to senior stakeholders.
• Collaborate with our AI specialists to incorporate AI-enabled approaches into consulting delivery.
• Contribute to business development and the continued growth of the practice.

At the Associate Director level, you will additionally:
