As a Senior Consultant (m/f/d) Data & AI Strategy
, you will sit at the center of this mission. You won’t just deliver static slides; you will bridge the gap between technical possibilities and business imperatives, guiding clients from a focused short-term engagement with Mittelstand manufacturers to multi-phase AI transformations with enterprises. In this role, you will take ownership of cross-functional work streams, drive data-driven decision-making, and actively shape the digital future of our clients.

• Client advisory & strategy: Work closely with (international) clients to understand their business needs and translate them into data-driven recommendations that support strategic decision-making and business transformation.
• Data & analysis: Collect, synthesise and iterate data to create actionable insights.

Familiarity with SQL or Python remains a plus, but the ability to leverage AI tools to accelerate analysis and delivery is what we value most.
• Project delivery: Take ownership of project work streams and ensure high-quality, timely delivery in alignment with overall project goals. Work collaboratively within interdisciplinary teams across consulting, data, and tech functions.

We are looking for driven, capable talents who bring strong motivation and curiosity for new challenges.

• Experience: You have at least 2–3 years of experience in management consulting, technology consulting, or in-house corporate strategy roles, with a proven track record of participating in data/AI strategy, cloud transformation, or applied AI/Machine Learning projects.
• Education: A completed university degree (Bachelor’s or Master’s) in Business Administration, Economics, Computer Science, Business Informatics, Physics, Mathematics, or a comparable quantitative field.
