Manager, Consulting

Motive Power is a dynamic consulting firm specializing in the U.S. utility sector. We partner with leading utilities to deliver high-impact solutions that accelerate corporate sustainability and decarbonization goals.

Our work spans end-to-end project delivery, organizational development, and strategic growth initiatives — combining operational rigor with ESG and energy transition expertise. We help clients enhance efficiency, strengthen execution, and unlock measurable performance improvements through streamlined project management, process optimization, and data-driven decision-making.

By integrating advanced analytics, organizational design, and people-centric change management, we enable utilities to adopt sustainable practices at scale and align transformation efforts with long-term strategic objectives.

At Motive Power, sustainability is not an initiative — it is embedded in how we operate, how we advise, and how we deliver results. We empower organizations to drive operational excellence while making a lasting impact on the energy transition and the communities they serve.

Motive Power is seeking a high-performing Manager to lead strategic client engagements and contribute to firm growth. This role is designed for top-tier consultants ready for expanded responsibility, executive exposure, and accelerated advancement. Managers at Motive Power operate with meaningful ownership — leading engagements, advising senior stakeholders, and contributing to account growth — while partnering closely with firm leadership.

This is a high-visibility role with a clear path toward senior leadership based on performance.

• Lead consulting engagements focused on transformation, performance improvement, and operational strategy
• Advise senior stakeholders and present actionable recommendations
• Define scope, shape solutions, and drive measurable outcomes
• Ensure delivery excellence across quality, timeline, and financial performance

• Identify expansion opportunities within existing accounts
• Support proposal development, solution design, and pricing discussions
• Strengthen executive client relationships that drive repeat business
• Lead and develop consulting teams across multiple work streams
• Mentor consultants and help shape firm capabilities
• Drive accountability and high-performance standards

• 6–10 years of consulting experience (Big 4 or equivalent strongly preferred)
• Demonstrated record of top-tier performance
• Experience leading engagements and managing senior stakeholders
• Strong commercial awareness and understanding of engagement economics
• Executive presence and exceptional communication skills
• Entrepreneurial, growth-oriented mindset

At larger firms, advancement can be linear and highly structured. At Motive Power, performance drives opportunity.

• Broader ownership earlier in their careers
• Direct access to firm leadership
• Exposure to revenue growth and strategic decision-making
• A clear, accelerated path toward senior leadership

We partner with Fortune 500 clients and leading global firms to deliver measurable impact — and we are building the next generation of consulting leaders.
