What You Bring to the Table:

When you join Torq, you're a consultant first. That means bringing structure to ambiguity, building trust with clients, and helping teams move from strategy to execution. At the Principal Consultant level, we expect you to do that at a broader scale, with stronger leadership, sharper judgment, and greater accountability for client and team outcomes.

You do not need to be the deepest technical expert in the room, but you should be able to understand business and technology tradeoffs, guide conversations across disciplines, and help clients make practical decisions. You should also be comfortable leading teams, managing senior stakeholders, and shaping work in a way that creates lasting value.

• Strong team orientation, including a willingness to coach others, share knowledge, and contribute to a positive team environment.
• Ability to adapt when priorities change, timelines shift, stakeholder expectations evolve, or client needs become more complex.
• Sound judgment when making decisions, escalating issues, resolving conflicts, and balancing client needs, team dynamics, delivery risks, and Torq's standards.
• Ability to create trust with clients and teammates through reliability, professionalism, candor, and follow-through.
• Ability to model strong consulting behaviors and help others understand what good looks like.

Business Development and Relationship Growth

Principal Consultants at Torq are not expected to be salespeople first. But they are expected to build trusted client relationships, recognize where Torq can add value, and help turn strong delivery into future opportunity.

For a Principal Consultant, we especially value people who can create clarity at the engagement level, lead teams through ambiguity, build trust with senior client stakeholders, and help Torq expand its impact through strong delivery and thoughtful relationship-building.
