Manager Consultant - Data Projects

Lead the business. Deliver the change.

At Propelling Tech we don't start with technology. We start with how our clients' businesses really work, then lead the teams that design and build the data, AI and agentic solutions that change it. As a Manager Consultant you will own client relationships and engagement delivery, bridging executive sponsors and technical teams, and you will be accountable for solutions reaching production with measurable results.

About Propelling Tech

Propelling Tech is an AI, data and consulting firm serving enterprise clients across the US, Europe and the Middle East. We combine deep business understanding with hands-on engineering, using our own accelerators, frameworks and AI-powered tools to deliver value faster than traditional consulting.

We work on high-impact problems for some of the world's leading companies, and we measure success by the outcomes our clients see, not by the slides we deliver. Our teams are based in hybrid offices in L'Illa (Barcelona) and Madrid.

The role

You will lead data and AI engagements from discovery to adoption. You will work with client executives to define the business problem, shape the solution with your engineering team, and keep delivery, scope, quality and stakeholder alignment on track. You will coach consultants and engineers, and you will be the person clients trust to turn a complex transformation into a measurable result.

You will not delegate accountability for outcomes. You own the engagement, the relationship and the business impact.

Engagement leadership

Lead end-to-end data and AI projects, from scoping and discovery through delivery, go-live and value tracking.
Own project plans, budgets, risks, dependencies and quality across one or more concurrent engagements.
Define success metrics with the client upfront and report progress against business outcomes, not just milestones.

Client relationships and business engineering

Build trusted relationships with client executives and business stakeholders, and act as their advisor on priorities and trade-offs.
Lead discovery sessions, map processes and data landscapes, and identify where data and AI can create measurable impact.
Translate business strategy into clear solution roadmaps and investment cases that executives can approve.

Team and delivery management

Lead, mentor and develop consultants and engineers, setting clear expectations and building high-performing teams.
Work with the technical leads to ensure architectures, data models and AI solutions are sound, scalable and production-ready.
Drive adoption, change management and handover so solutions are used daily by the business.

Commercial and practice contribution

Support scoping, estimation and proposal development for new opportunities.
Identify expansion opportunities within existing accounts and contribute to reusable assets and accelerators.
Share what works across the team and help shape how Propelling Tech delivers.
