** Role Description
** At Wood Mackenzie, our competitive advantage lies in the depth and analytical rigor of our market‐leading research, and in the combined expertise of our dedicated consultants who specialize in energy and natural resources. As a Managing Consultant on the Power Market Modelling and Analysis team within the Americas Power & Renewables Consulting team, you will play a key role in our growing consulting practice leading the management and delivery of a wide range of commercial, transaction and strategic consulting projects.

You will be a front-line leader involved in all aspects of the consulting process, from shaping the opportunity, performing the analysis, managing the project, and working closely with clients and Wood Mackenzie experts to develop insights to support critical client commercial and strategic decisions.

The Managing Consultant will be instrumental in developing the power market analytics for the North American power markets, running fundamental production cost models to generate regional, zonal and nodal power price forecasts, building scenario analysis, and supporting strategy, commercial advisory and portfolio/asset due diligence engagements. The role combines strong modelling execution with well-organized, fully documented deliverables and growing client responsibility.

This role requires strong execution and workstream management to deliver client mandates, with active coaching of Consultants and Senior Consultants. The Managing Consultant is expected to work as part of a project team under the guidance of Principal Consultants and Directors and forms a critical part of the project delivery team at Wood Mackenzie while increasing visibility with clients.

This role requires a high level of creative thinking, analytical and problem-solving abilities, and the application of detailed North American power market knowledge and experience to a broad range of consulting projects and client situations. These capabilities must be accompanied by a strong command of oral and written communication skills in both internal as well as external and client-facing environments. Additionally, outstanding team and project management capabilities, in a consulting context, are required for the purpose of this role.
