The Opportunity

As a Senior Consultant, you operate as the engagement lead for client automation initiatives, accountable for delivering complex programs from strategy through execution. You bring structure, foresight, and accountability to every engagement—owning delivery planning, governance, risk management, and executive stakeholder alignment

You act as the central leader across client and delivery teams, ensuring initiatives move forward with clarity, momentum, and measurable outcomes.

  • Partner closely with solution architects and developers to ensure alignment between requirements, solution design, and delivery outcomes.
  • Manage stakeholder expectations and executive communication, maintaining transparency on progress, risks, and mitigation strategies.

  • Coach and guide consultants, supporting delivery excellence and strengthening consulting capabilities across the team.
  • Lead project planning and execution - defining milestones, managing dependencies, and coordinating across business and technical teams. 
  • Establish project governance frameworks, including communication cadence, reporting, and risk management processes. 
  • Oversee testing and release readiness, ensuring alignment between requirements, solution design, and validation results. 
  • Lead client-facing steering committees and project status meetings, providing clear visibility into progress, risks, and mitigation plans. 
  • Proactively manage client expectations, escalating challenges, and driving resolution to maintain confidence and control.

  • Governance models for automation programs and multi-project initiatives
  • Executive status reports and steering committee updates
  • Risk registers, issue logs, and mitigation strategies
  • Backlog planning and prioritization frameworks
  • Delivery playbooks and structured approaches for automation programs

Desired Business Outcomes 

  • Deliver predictable, high-quality client outcomes across automation initiatives
  • Build trusted client relationships through strong engagement leadership
  • Strengthen Greenlight’s reputation for structured, disciplined delivery
  • Support internal consulting maturity by mentoring and enabling consultants.

  • Experience working in consulting or high-stakes delivery environments, where stakeholder alignment, accountability, and speed all matter
  • A passion for the growth of people, processes, and your development

In this role, you’re not just keeping projects on track; you’re setting the pace, clearing the path, and helping clients realize the potential of intelligent automation. Every project is a new challenge, and you're the leader who makes it all come together. If you’re excited about automation, strategy, and making things happen, we’re excited to meet you.
