We have an exciting opportunity for a Lead Consultant to provide technical and consulting leadership to drive meaningful impact for public and private sector clients. 

How will you make an impact? 

• Project delivery excellence: Project delivery excellence: Lead end-to-end delivery of analytics and AI projects for healthcare and public health clients, managing multiple workstreams simultaneously. Coordinate cross-functional teams with diverse expertise areas, manage timelines, and ensure quality outcomes delivered on time, on budget, and on scope. 

• Technical and strategic leadership: Design and implement AI solutions including agentic AI, machine learning models for predicting health outcomes and identifying risks, dashboards with AI integration, and data strategies. Translate healthcare challenges into robust analytical frameworks.

• Team contribution: Support Quantium Health leadership and the broader Quantium group in delivering strategic projects and initiatives. 

The superpowers you'll be bringing to the team: 

• Technical proficiency: 5+ years in a technical analytics environment, leading data analytics and data science projects. You ideally bring together healthcare sector knowledge and technical expertise. 

• Technical and consulting capability: Strong understanding of data preparation, analytics concepts, and model development. Advanced capability in either hands-on analytics (Python/R, building models and solutions) or consulting (problem structuring, stakeholder management, translating technical findings into business recommendations). Regardless of path, you're technically literate enough to lead technical teams and make informed decisions about analytical approaches. Experience with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP) is valued as we increasingly deploy solutions in cloud environments. 

• Project delivery: Track record of leading and delivering complex, multi-stakeholder projects from conception to implementation 

• Communication excellence: Excellent communication skills with ability to present technical concepts to clinical, business, and executive audiences, including the ability to create compelling slide decks.

• AI enthusiasm: Genuine passion and interest in AI, with active use of tools like Claude or ChatGPT in your work or personal life. You don't take AI outputs on faith - you verify and validate AI-generated work to ensure accuracy and quality. Comfort working with modern cloud-based analytics infrastructure as we deploy AI and analytics solutions at scale. 

• Commercial acumen and trusted advisor approach: You understand project economics and can identify business development opportunities. Whether you're from consulting or transitioning from industry, you translate technical capabilities into business value and build relationships that lead to sustained client partnerships. You focus on empowering clients rather than creating dependency. 

Remember, you might not tick all the boxes, but don't let that stop you from applying. We're more interested in how you work, your ability to solve problems and think big, and your potential to grow into areas where you're still developing.
