Senior Consultant Corporate Clients / Strategy (m/f/d)

What is it about?

You learned at KPMG, BCG, McKinsey, Bain, or a comparable consultancy how to convince at board level, structure complex transformations, and deliver under pressure.

And you realized: The decks are getting bigger, the hierarchies longer, your impact on the actual decision is getting smaller. Up-or-out, 60-hour weeks for someone else's brand, three approval loops before you're even allowed to speak to the client.

At SC Ventures, we turn this around: You take on your own mandates with established companies of growing complexity and speak directly with management or the board. No pyramid in between. No three partners who need to coordinate beforehand.

What you learned in a Big4/MBB consultancy regarding structure, methodology, and executive communication, you bring to us – and at the same time, you'll be involved in what you build: As soon as your existing clients renew, you'll receive a contractually regulated revenue share. No bonus pool, no politics – your results, your share.

We are not a corporation. We are a fast-growing team that already supports over 100 providers annually in the education sector – mandates ranging from established educational providers with multiple locations to growing medium-sized companies and corporate clients. You will help shape how this area is structured, not just how it is executed.

Responsibilities

What awaits you:

• You will independently manage consulting mandates for companies of growing size and complexity – from approach at management/board level to implementation steering
• You will develop business and operating models for sales and CRM transformation and be responsible for their implementation – not just the slide for it
• You will lead strategy workshops and steering committees at C-level
• Together with management, you will build the methodological foundation for the enterprise segment: offer structure, delivery standards, quality assurance
• You will be a sparring partner for management in the strategic development of SC Ventures in the enterprise segment

Qualifications

What you bring

• Several years of experience (from Senior Consultant level upwards) at a top strategy consultancy (MBB, Big4 Consulting or similar) or comparable in-house strategy function
• Proven experience in direct collaboration with boards/management of companies of relevant scale
• Ability to independently structure and manage complex transformation projects – without tight approval processes
• Executive Presence: You convince at eye level without having to hide behind a big brand
• Entrepreneurial thinking: You want responsibility and participation, not just a salary
• Industry knowledge in the education sector/AZAV is an advantage, but not a must – consulting logic counts more than sector history

Benefits

What you gain from it:

• Revenue share on your existing clients – contractually regulated, no politics
• Direct access to management – you help shape the enterprise segment, not just execute it
• Fast decision-making processes – no three approval loops between you and the client
• No Up-or-out – your value is measured by results, not by politics or tenure
• Attractive fixed salary plus participation model
• Personal training budget and clear perspective towards partner model/team leadership
• Modern workplace in the heart of Hamburg, MacBook & iPhone
• Close collaboration with founders instead of an anonymous corporate structure

Who we are really looking for

You come from top consulting and no longer want to deliver for someone else's brand. You want your own mandates, real participation, and decisions that are truly yours.

If you prefer to build rather than manage, and prefer to build something great with a small team rather than being a small cog in a big team – then you are in the right place.
