Alvarez & Marsal, a premier professional services firm with more than 13,000 professionals globally, is seeking an enthusiastic, self-motivated knowledge management professional to join our growing KM Services team. As part of A&M's Global AI and Knowledge Organization, KM Services is at the center of an exciting firm-wide transformation in how A&M works and derives value from its intellectual property. The team is focused on building a mature knowledge management practice, including strengthening relationships with business stakeholders;

breaking down siloes; and improving how consulting teams capture, organize, share, and find critical knowledge. In addition to supporting people-to-people and people-to-content use cases, the team has a critical role in building the data and information layer needed to power business-relevant AI agents and tools.

The successful candidate will own the KM relationship for a portfolio of North American business units, partnering closely with those businesses to improve their existing KM processes, understand their evolving needs, and connect them to the global KM strategy and toolkit. This is a high-visibility role for someone who wants to help business units get more value from their knowledge while also contributing directly to global KM and AI initiatives.

The role will report to the North American KM Services Director.

Contribute to Global KM Strategy and Initiatives

• Partner with KM colleagues to design and build global capabilities and tools (e.g., expert profiles, conversational knowledge search, agentic knowledge capture) and help extend them to new areas of the business.

• Support KM team members on initiatives both within and beyond the immediate region, contributing to a cohesive global KM capability.

• Share knowledge of processes, approaches, methods, and tools/platforms with team colleagues so the team can leverage its collective experience across the globe.
