You can walk into an ambiguous client situation, ask the right questions, bring structure to the problem, engage the appropriate expertise, and translate that work into a clear recommendation and actionable plan. <br/> You are comfortable discussing risk and resilience with business executives while also working alongside cybersecurity, cloud, AI, compliance, and technical specialists. You do not need to be the deepest technical expert in every domain, but you understand these areas well enough to connect them, challenge assumptions, and help guide clients toward meaningful business outcomes. <br/><br/>Most importantly, you enjoy building. This role provides the opportunity not only to shape and deliver client engagements, but also to help develop the methodologies, offerings, and operating model of a growing enterprise Risk & Resilience advisory practice. <br/><br/>#LI-CL2<br/> 9M2388 2026-83084 9M2388 2026 <br/><br/>Here, our employees don't just have jobs, they're building careers. That's why we offer a comprehensive pay and benefits package that rewards employees for their contributions to our success, supporting all aspects of their well-being at every stage of life. <br/><br/>A qualified applicant's criminal history, if any, will be considered in a manner consistent with applicable laws, including local ordinances. </div>
