You will lead large-scale business transformation and implementation programs across a range of industries and functions, partnering with senior client leaders to translate strategy into execution and deliver measurable, sustainable results.

You will drive a broad portfolio of transformation initiatives, including operational excellence, restructuring and turnaround execution, process optimization, organizational redesign, post-merger integration, digital transformation, and strategic operations improvement efforts.

Working side-by-side with client teams, you will build the capabilities, governance structures, operating models, systems, and processes required to achieve lasting impact. You will lead complex work streams, develop and manage implementation roadmaps, and drive execution through rigorous program management, stakeholder engagement, and change leadership.

You will also coach and develop teams of consultants and client stakeholders, facilitate executive workshops and governance forums, and apply structured problem-solving to support effective decision-making and delivery. In addition, you will establish PMO and performance management mechanisms to track progress, manage risks, and ensure value capture. You will contribute to business development through proposal development and client relationship building, while helping shape the continued growth and evolution of the Delivery Assurance capability across North America.

This role offers the opportunity to work in a highly entrepreneurial and collaborative environment, partnering with leading organizations to address their most critical transformation priorities.

You will be part of McKinsey's global Transformation practice, which helps organizations change their trajectory and achieve their full potential through holistic interventions across performance, capabilities, and organizational health.
