The Director retains ownership of final recommendations, executive communication, and strategic narrative.

• 5+ years of experience in business analysis, management consulting, internal consulting, business transformation, operational excellence, or strategy and operations.

• Strong analytical and structured problem-solving skills, including experience working with incomplete or conflicting information.

• Demonstrated ability to build business cases, analyze processes, create process maps, and develop professional presentations with limited rework.

• Advanced proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets and PowerPoint or Google Slides; familiarity with process-mapping tools and the ability to learn new business systems quickly.

• Previous experience with a consulting firm or an internal transformation team is strongly preferred.

• Experience with financial services, technology implementation, automation, or interconnected business systems is a plus.

• Fully remote, part-time engagement for professionals based in Latin America.
