Talent Forge Managing Partner

Execute the Lab-first campaign across the top 50 accounts — founding design partners first — routing each into the motion it's ready for. Build and lead a team of commercial transformation consultants, plus a shared pool of platform engineers. A senior leader — Partner, Managing Director, or equivalent — from a top-tier consulting or human capital practice (McKinsey, Deloitte Human Capital, BCG, or peer), or a commercial leader from Palantir's forward-deployed world. 15+ years, with scars from both selling and delivering transformation. Deep human capital domain authority in workforce strategy, talent, and org transformation — credible enough to advise a Chief People Officer as a peer, and to challenge them when it matters. A proven rainmaker and practice builder: you've originated and grown eight-figure client portfolios, built a practice from a standing start, and developed the team beneath you into partners. Commercially fluent beyond the consulting model — you understand, or are hungry to master, consumption pricing, platform economics, and keeping services in service of software. Equally credible with CHROs and technologists: able to hold a workforce transformation conversation and an AI architecture conversation in the same meeting, with the humility to bring in your AI experts as equals. Experienced leading small, elite teams — transformation consultants, forward-deployed engineers, solution architects — and resistant to the pull of customization creep and hourly-billing habits. A category thinker with executive presence: comfortable in board settings, sharp in writing, able to make a market believe something new. A plus: experience with HR technology or talent intelligence platforms, and with regulated, governance-heavy environments (security, responsible AI, compliance).
