About the role
ADAPTOVATE is a management consulting firm helping organisations stay ahead of change by building the capability to adapt, innovate and lead in dynamic markets.
We work with clients around the world to solve complex business challenges and deliver meaningful transformation, increasingly using AI and emerging technologies to create practical business value.
As a Senior Consultant, you will play a key role in helping clients solve complex business problems, develop and implement practical AI-enabled solutions, and drive the transformation required to make those solutions successful.
You will work directly with senior client stakeholders, lead project workstreams and teams, and help move engagements from problem definition through analysis, solution design, testing, implementation and adoption.
This is not a role where the work stops at strategy or recommendations. We are looking for someone who combines strong consulting capability, a builder mindset, business judgement and client leadership.
You will also contribute to growing ADAPTOVATE by building trusted client relationships, identifying opportunities within existing accounts, and supporting proposals, pitches and new business opportunities.
What will you be doing?
* Partner with senior client leaders to understand strategic priorities, diagnose complex business problems and identify where AI can create meaningful value * Structure ambiguous problems, oversee analysis and translate insights into clear actions and solution priorities * Lead the design, build and testing of AI-enabled solutions, prototypes, workflows and process improvements with client teams * Translate business priorities into practical AI use cases, solution concepts, implementation roadmaps and measurable value opportunities * Guide teams through rapid testing and iteration, using client and user feedback to improve solutions * Help move successful solutions from prototype through implementation, adoption and scaling * Work across business and technical teams to ensure solutions are practical, commercially relevant and fit within the client environment * Lead consulting engagements or major workstreams, with accountability for scope, milestones, risks, stakeholder expectations, quality and outcomes * Facilitate executive discussions, workshops and working sessions to solve problems, align stakeholders and move decisions forward * Translate technical ideas, options and trade-offs into clear business language for senior leaders * Measure whether solutions are creating meaningful business value and help clients adjust where needed * Help clients embed new AI-enabled ways of working, build internal capability and drive broader business transformation * Coach and develop Consultants and Associates, providing clear direction, feedback and support throughout engagements * Build trusted relationships with senior client stakeholders and become a credible advisor across the organisation * Identify opportunities to expand ADAPTOVATE's impact within existing client accounts * Contribute to business development through opportunity shaping, proposals, pitches, client presentations and commercial discussions * Help develop ADAPTOVATE's AI capabilities, offerings, methods and thought leadership
What ADAPTOVATE is looking for?
We are looking for someone who combines strong consulting skills, practical AI and technology experience, a builder mindset and the ability to turn business challenges into measurable outcomes.
You will typically have 8+ years of relevant professional experience, including significant client-facing delivery experience across areas such as:
* Technology or digital consulting * AI, data or product-related roles with strong business and client exposure * Business or technology transformation * Management consulting with strong exposure to AI, technology or solution delivery * Operating model, process improvement or operational transformation

We are not looking for a pure technologist or a traditional strategy consultant who simply uses AI tools.
We are looking for someone who can understand the business problem, lead the build with the client, move solutions into implementation and drive the transformation around them.
What ADAPTOVATE offers?
* Full-time permanent employment * Competitive compensation package, including an annual performance-based bonus * A significant Employee Value Proposition (EVP) budget supporting personal wellbeing, professional development, training or visits to our global offices * A clearly defined career path tailored to individual aspirations and development priorities * Employee Assistance Programme * Employee Referral Programme * Opportunities to work with colleagues and clients across Australia, Singapore, the US, Canada and Europe * The opportunity to help shape how ADAPTOVATE develops and delivers AI-enabled business transformation for clients
At ADAPTOVATE, Senior Consultants are expected to do more than analyse problems and provide recommendations.
You will help clients understand their challenges, lead the analysis, build and test practical solutions, drive implementation and create lasting transformation.
Understand → Analyse → Build → Test → Implement → Transform.
Join ADAPTOVATE and help clients build practical AI solutions and turn them into real business transformation.
