Consulting Director- New York

Role Summary

The Consulting Director operates as the ultimate Solution Owner and Engagement Lead for a portfolio of data and AI projects. Positioned between our commercial teams (Account Executives/Client Partners) and technical delivery teams, you will take high-level customer opportunities and shape them into concrete, executable project plans.

This role is ideal for a strong program leader who thrives in the data/AI space—acting as "the most technical person of the non-technical team, and the least technical person of the technical team." You will supervise the Delivery Managers running day-to-day operations, ensuring that the initial strategic vision is successfully executed to drive client value and secure recurring revenue.

Key Responsibilities

1. Solutioning & Scoping (Pre-Sales Adjacent)

  • Translate Opportunity to Execution: Partner with Client Partners and Technologists to take defined technical solutions and build concrete project plans, proposals, and execution roadmaps.

  • Bridge the Strategy Gap: Successfully translate high-level business objectives into structured, multi-workstream data engineering and AI initiatives.

2. Delivery Supervision & Program Governance

  • Team Supervision: Directly manage and mentor a team of Delivery Managers who handle day-to-day project management and client communication.

  • Full SDLC Oversight: Oversee multiple complex workstreams across the data lifecycle (e.g., data warehouse migrations, platform modernizations, agentic AI/LLM implementations).

  • Escalation & Health: Serve as the ultimate escalation point for delivery hurdles, managing overall engagement health, risk mitigation, and executive client satisfaction.

3. Financial & Revenue Accountability

  • Revenue Realization: Own the health of project delivery to directly hit portfolio revenue targets (realized revenue based on successful delivery milestones).

Candidate Profile

Experience & Expertise

  • Tenure: 8–10+ years of experience in technical program management, professional services, or IT consulting delivery leadership.

  • Technical Breadth: Strong foundational knowledge of data pipelines, modern data platforms (e.g., Databricks, Snowflake), and emerging AI landscapes (LLMs, multi-flow agents). Hands-on coding is not required, but technical fluency is mandatory.

  • Methodology: Proven track record managing large-scale, full software development life cycle (SDLC) programs.

  • Industry Focus: Financial Services experience is highly preferred, though top-tier enterprise program experience in other fast-paced sectors will be considered.

Leadership Traits

  • The "Translator": Ability to confidently discuss project execution metrics with delivery teams and high-level strategy with client executives.

  • High Ownership: Comfortable navigating ambiguous project states and turning chaos into structured execution plans.

  • Team Scaler: Passionate about growing and structuring internal delivery capabilities as Indicium expands.

The anticipated base salary range for this role is $195,000 - $250,000. In addition to base pay, this position may be eligible for an annual discretionary bonus. An individual's final salary offer will be determined based on a variety of factors, including geographic location, experience, specialized skills, and qualifications. This compensation range is subject to updates or modifications at the company’s discretion
