  • Provide thought leadership within the Private Equity practice, shaping new offerings, methodologies, and points of view aligned to evolving PE investor needs. 

  • Oversee engagement delivery and profitability, ensuring high-quality outcomes, strong client satisfaction, and efficient execution across multiple concurrent projects. 

  • Build, mentor, and lead high-performing consulting teams, fostering a culture of excellence, collaboration, and professional development. 

  • Contribute to the development of Kaiser’s intellectual capital, helping to position the firm as a trusted strategic partner to the private equity community. 

Qualifications 

  • 7+ years of strategy consulting experience, with significant exposure to private equity clients and investment-related work (e.g., diligence, value creation, growth strategy). 

  • Demonstrated success originating and managing consulting revenue of $1.5M+ annually within a management consulting or advisory environment. 

  • Established relationships and credibility within the private equity ecosystem (sponsors, operating partners, portfolio leadership). 

  • Strong executive presence with exceptional written and verbal communication skills. 

  • Proven ability to lead teams, manage senior client relationships, and navigate complex stakeholder environments. 

  • Strategic thinker with a strong bias toward practical execution and impact.

Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
