What you'll do
- Lead requirements discovery across complex, multi-workstream engagements, including facilitated workshops with senior client stakeholders
- Interpret ambiguous or conflicting requirements, identifying the underlying need and guiding clients towards solutions that address it
- Manage scope proactively — identifying scope creep, influencing clients towards pragmatic approaches, and ensuring changes are managed formally
- Act as the primary Rimes consulting point of contact for assigned client workstreams
- Design and own solution approaches for complex client use cases, covering multiple asset classes and data domains
- Lead solution design sessions and client workshops, facilitating effective engagement and clear decision-making
- Proactively identify opportunities to improve client processes and expand the value Rimes delivers beyond the immediate project scope
- Challenge non-standard client approaches confidently and constructively, backed by evidence and comparable engagement experience
- Review and quality-assure solution designs and documentation produced by Solution Consultants on the team
- Own delivery outcomes across assigned workstreams, taking accountability for the quality and timeliness of the team's contribution
- Anticipate and actively manage delivery risks; escalate promptly when senior involvement is required
- Mentor and guide Solution Consultants working alongside you — reviewing outputs, providing constructive feedback, and helping them develop their capability
- Collaborate cross-functionally across Professional Services, Product and Engineering teams as needed to drive delivery
- Lead UAT planning and execution, defining acceptance criteria and managing client engagement through the testing cycle
- Guide clients through technology change, identifying adoption risks and addressing them proactively
- Contribute to the development and improvement of PS best practices, delivery standards, and methodologies
- Provide structured feedback to Product teams on client needs, product gaps, and field observations
- Support change beyond formal project delivery where required, including smaller client change, post-deployment enhancements, defects and transition activity
- Support wider Professional Services and Rimes priorities as required, including internal projects, change initiatives and activities aligned to company and functional OKRs
- Lead adoption of AI-enabled workflows within engagements, identifying where new tooling can accelerate delivery or improve quality
- Contribute to team capability-building by sharing effective AI workflow practices with less experienced colleagues
- Stay actively current with evolving AI capabilities relevant to your product track
What we're looking for
- Deep working knowledge of investment management, asset management, or financial data operations across multiple domains (e.g. equities, fixed income, alternatives, derivatives)
- Strong understanding of data management workflows and technical considerations relevant to the product track
- Demonstrated experience leading client-facing solutioning and delivery on complex, multi-workstream engagements
- Experience mentoring or guiding more junior practitioners in a consulting or delivery environment
- Ability to lead complex solution design and translate it into actionable, well-communicated delivery plans
- Strong stakeholder management — able to influence at project and operational level without formal authority
- Clear communication across operational, project, and senior client audiences — able to calibrate message to audience
- Comfortable managing competing priorities across multiple workstreams independently
- Constructive challenge — advocating for best practices diplomatically while maintaining client relationships
- Accountable for outcomes, not just tasks and takes ownership of what the team delivers
- Self-managing: sets priorities, manages stakeholders, and escalates proactively without being prompted
- A natural informal leader and mentor and invests time in developing the consultants around them
- Brings a strategic perspective and sees what is not being asked as well as what is
- Consistently models the professional standards in the PS Consulting Excellence Framework
Nice to have
- Familiarity with Rimes products or deep experience with comparable data management or benchmarking platforms
