Job Description

About the role

  • As Manager, Internal Consulting, you’ll serve as the engagement owner for high-priority internal consulting projects. You’ll lead work end-to-end—from scoping and analysis through execution and handover—while mentoring Associates and Analysts who support the work. This is not a formal people-management role. Instead, it’s a project leadership and coaching role. You’ll set direction, delegate effectively, raise the quality bar, and ensure our work is rigorous, practical, and useful to the teams we serve. You’ll think like a management consultant but act like an operator: comfortable moving from frameworks and data to field realities and follow-through.

Who you are

  • You think like a management consultant: you can structure ambiguous problems, use data to drive clarity, and communicate insight simply.
  • You’ve managed end-to-end projects and love setting up engagement teams for success. 
  • You have 3-4 years of experience in management consulting.
  • You’re confident shifting between doing and teaching: building analyses one day and coaching the team the next.
  • You have strong organizational and communication skills; you can synthesize information for any audience.
  • You value curiosity and humility—your success comes from making others better.
  • You’re energized by purpose-driven work and excited by the idea of building systems that feed millions of children.

Project Leadership & Delivery (~65%)

  • Lead or co-lead consulting engagements from problem definition through execution and handover.
  • Design analyses, guide Associates’ work, and synthesize findings into clear recommendations.
  • Manage internal client relationships to ensure work is relevant, actionable, and adopted.
  • Support pilots, innovations, and growth initiatives that accelerate F4E’s impact.

Mentorship & Coaching (~25%)

  • Coach Associates and Analysts on structured problem-solving, analysis, and communication.
  • Review work products and provide timely, actionable feedback.
  • Model high standards for rigor, clarity, and follow-through.

Organizational Insight (~10%)

  • Stay informed on trends in school feeding, social enterprise operations, and organizational design.
  • Contribute ideas and benchmarks that help the Internal Consulting team stay best-in-class.
