Job Description

About the job

We continually look for people who want to create remarkable careers and grow their leadership skills. If that's you, please apply for consideration for future projects.

Our consultant positions are project-based. Our projects can be anywhere in the United States and last between 2-26 weeks. You must be available to travel Sundays through Fridays.

As an Operations Management Consultant with The Powers Company, you will work in a diverse variety of industries with high demand in manufacturing, food processing, warehousing, and manufacturing support functions (Maintenance, Planning & Scheduling, Quality). You will be tasked with equipping managers and supervisors with the tools, controls, and, most importantly, the behaviors required to manage operations to full capacity. You must be a 'roll-up your sleeves' and disciplined individual, with self-initiative and natural curiosity for learning.

You must enjoy working shoulder-to-shoulder with others to drive behaviors on the front line of an organization focused on barrier removal, leadership development, and employee engagement to optimize performance. You will lead, coach, and develop members of a client organization through a change management process developing a clear understanding of their processes, barrier identification and training on repeatable problem-solving skills for substantial improvements and measurable results. The position challenge is to accomplish results through the clients' leadership team with no formal control or direct authority.

Your ability to be an active and effective problem-solver, communicator, and develop trust and respect with tactful honesty is a necessity.

As a Consultant, you will have a Project Manager providing direction, support and TPC process training daily through this process. A willingness to learn and take direction is a must, balanced with your ability to bring your personal positive experiences and knowledge to the forefront. The Consultant position requires having the confidence and ability to execute an aggressive, results-focused schedule through 'engineering' of the client. Your interpersonal skills of gaining partnerships, buy-in, and ownership by others will be critical to the clients, The Powers Company and your personal success.
