The role of the Principal is to manage research and analysis in a project-based environment. Assigned to 2-4 project teams at a time, the Principal will be involved in:

• Planning and executing objectives for complex projects involving multiple phases and practices
• Effectively delegating tasks to project team
• Ensuring quality of analysis and research
• Building relationships with multiple client contacts
• Demonstrating facilitation impact with large client groups, often comprised of senior management
• Identifying project extensions and new opportunities with existing client accounts and initiating appropriate follow-up action

Principals are expected to travel to client sites as necessitated by projects. Typical travel is 2-3 days per week on average, with sporadic 4- or 5-day travel weeks.

Our total compensation package for Principals compares favorably with that offered for similar positions at other leading consulting firms. As a small entrepreneurial company, we choose to keep base compensation modest, and emphasize annual bonuses. We provide a full range of benefits, including health and life insurance, as well as a 401K program with annual fund matching according to company profitability.
