Job Description
Management Consulting is looking for an experienced Product Advisory Consultant to take ownership of the Product Management Consulting charter at a mid level. This is a role for someone who has already operated at scale and is comfortable setting direction rather than simply following one.
The successful candidate will bring approximately 7 years of progressively senior experience, holding MBA, with a demonstrated track record across Process Improvement, Product Management Consulting, Financial Modelling, Problem Structuring, Stakeholder Management. Beyond individual capability, this role expects the person to mentor junior team members and represent the function in cross-departmental discussions.
Reporting relationships will be defined based on the final scope agreed at offer stage, and the role is based out of Hybrid - Pune on a contract arrangement. Compensation is benchmarked at INR 20.4-31.6 LPA, reflecting the seniority and scope of the position.
Success in this role will be measured less by task completion and more by the quality of judgement applied to ambiguous, high-stakes situations within product management consulting.
Performance is reviewed on a structured cycle, with clear criteria for movement into the next band. Cross-functional exposure is built into the role by design, so the person will regularly interact with adjacent teams and leadership. The organisation places a premium on ownership; once a task is assigned, the expectation is to see it through without hand-holding.
Shortlisted applicants will be evaluated on both domain knowledge and practical problem-solving ability. The role alternates between independent deep work and short coordination huddles with stakeholders across functions.
Benefits include health insurance, provident fund contributions, and paid leave in line with company policy. New joiners typically get a short structured onboarding before being handed independent ownership of their first deliverables.
Skip-level conversations with senior leadership are encouraged at least twice a year to discuss career direction. Disagreement on approach is expected and welcomed, provided it's backed by reasoning rather than preference alone. High performers in this role typically move into a broader ownership scope within 18-24 months.
The package is structured with a fixed component, performance bonus, and standard health coverage. Applications without a clear summary of relevant experience are less likely to be shortlisted for the first round.
No two days look identical - some are heavy on execution, others are spent largely in planning and cross-team discussions. Expect a mix of scheduled reviews, ad-hoc troubleshooting, and documentation as the workload shifts through the week. Managers here tend to give context rather than instructions, leaving room for the individual to decide how a task gets done.
Priorities can shift mid-week depending on business needs, so adaptability matters as much as technical depth. The organisation has historically promoted from within for a majority of its senior and lead openings.
Mornings are usually spent on planning and status reviews, while the rest of the day is given over to hands-on delivery and problem-solving. The team follows a flat structure where ideas are evaluated on merit rather than hierarchy, and feedback flows in both directions. Candidates are encouraged to highlight measurable outcomes from previous roles rather than just responsibilities held.
