Consultant
Consultants at Matters Graph are typically promoted from the Associate role with a proven two- to three-year track record.
As a Consultant, you will act as a role model for our Associates, helping to coach and mentor new recruits. You will demonstrate more advanced research and analytical skills, and may begin to take on project management roles on smaller projects. You will serve as a trusted “thought partner” to our Managers and Directors. In addition, you may take charge of internal programs and firm-building activities – such as developing enhanced research and analytical capabilities.
For exceptional performers, Matters Graph offers MBA sponsorship to support you in the transition to Manager.

You will begin to develop, author and publish intellectual capital, and build expertise sectors and methodologies. You will also begin to build “trusted advisor” relationships with clients, who will look to you to ensure consistently excellent delivery.
