Intermediate Management Consultant

Elevate is a business management consulting firm. This means we help our clients solve problems. We provide a wide range of services including planning, organizational transformation, change management, stakeholder engagement, procurement and more. We work on both small short-term projects and large multi-year complex projects. We are dedicated to understanding the true needs of our clients and working with them to identify optimum solutions tailored to address those needs.

You need a passion for service to work here. Our greatest joy is seeing others succeed. We take pride in providing quality work and we have a lot of fun doing it. This is a place for people who are committed to providing the best results; perfectionists; and people who are energized by challenges. If you think being a consultant is all about going to meetings and telling people what you think they should do, then you won’t fit in here. Consulting is hard and challenging work. We produce and deliver a significant amount for our clients. They expect a lot from us, and we demand a lot from our team members. We are a small firm, so every team member is expected to be actively engaged on leading or supporting projects – from project management to facilitation to the creation of deliverables, and everything in between. And we love it!

A client brings you a challenge. The information is incomplete, people have different perspectives, and the deadline is already in the calendar. You can bring structure to that situation, work through the evidence and help move things forward.

At Elevate Consulting, you’ll work on defined projects and workstreams, support larger engagements, and develop practical solutions for public- and private-sector clients. Your work may include organizational planning, change management, stakeholder engagement, facilitation and business improvement.

You’ll have room to exercise your judgement, with experienced colleagues to challenge your thinking and support delivery. You’ll also be hands-on. Research, analysis, writing and revisions are part of the job.

• Work with fellow consultants and clients to clarify the problem, define outcomes and establish a practical approach.
• Manage project activities, timelines and deliverables, raising risks early.
• Develop reports, recommendations, presentations, change plans and other client materials.
• Support the design and facilitation of interviews, workshops and stakeholder discussions.
• Turn research and engagement findings into clear recommendations.
• Coordinate contributions from colleagues and review work for quality and consistency.
• Support business development through client relationships and responses to requests for proposals.

• Experience working on defined projects or workstreams and delivering work for clients or internal decision-makers.
• Applied experience in change management, planning, facilitation and project management.
• Examples of developing substantial written deliverables, recommendations or presentations.
• Experience working with stakeholders who have different priorities and perspectives.
• Strong working knowledge of Microsoft 365.
• Education or professional development relevant to the work you’ve delivered.

Experience in public-sector consulting, procurement, evaluation, service design or digital transformation would be an asset. Show us where you have depth and what you contributed.

We’ll explore how you frame a problem, test assumptions and make recommendations when the answer is unclear. We’ll want examples of managing client expectations, responding to difficult feedback and knowing when to ask for support.

We’ll also pay attention to how you listen, explain your thinking and take responsibility for the quality of your work. Thoughtful use of AI is welcome, with clear accountability for accuracy, confidentiality and professional judgement.

We’re a small business management consulting firm that helps organizations solve problems and put solutions into practice. You’ll contribute across the project lifecycle and see how your work affects client decisions.

We care about service, thoughtful work and following through. We also enjoy working together. Our total rewards package includes a competitive base salary, comprehensive extended health benefits, a Health Spending Account and a flexible, hybrid work model.
