• Document the skills requirement of the prospective consulting team, interview prospective team members, and choose and build your team
• Create proposal documents that discuss Crimson's approach to addressing the client's challenge

Manage the Engagement:

• With a Partner, manage the client sponsors and manage their expectations throughout the engagement

• Follow an engagement completion process
• Support the building and management of various aspects of Crimson's infrastructure to ensure the firm's overall success

Initially, for most of our internal positions (found under “Join Our Team”) you’ll work with our firm on a (contract) basis. This enables both you and us to evaluate the fit before either of us makes a mutual long-term commitment.
