The Mandate

Veronix offers Recon to enterprises and organisations that need to see where manual processes create friction, where artificial intelligence can help, and where operational intelligence can be improved.

The work goes beyond a map of today. It includes advice and support for the future state: how the operation should adapt as technology and workflows advance, and what to change first so the organisation is ready for what comes next.

The consultant leads the engagement end to end: speaking with the people doing the work, auditing the process, analysing the findings, and presenting them back to the client.

The Role

The consultant identifies bottlenecks and time sinks, and maps how the company actually operates. Those operations are then ordered so specific solutions can be named: where artificial intelligence belongs, where it does not, and where operational improvements can be made without it.

From that picture, the consultant prepares a presentation — using the firm's tools and methods — that recommends solutions and delivers the findings to the client.

A typical engagement means sitting on calls with client staff, usually six to eight interviews, sometimes more. Internal documents and systems support the work by turning messy interview material into a clear account of what was found. A questionnaire kit is provided; the consultant still needs the skill to ask the right questions and run the conversation well.

The Work

Each engagement follows a defined process. The tools required for the audit are supplied.

  1. 01

    Discovery

    Confirm the scope of the engagement and which teams to interview.

  2. 02

    Interviews

    Structured sessions with operators, usually over Zoom. Typically six to eight calls, sometimes more.

  3. 03

    Analysis

    Bottlenecks, manual friction, and where AI or systems work can improve operational intelligence.

  4. 04

    Presentation

    Findings delivered to the client using the firm's presentation outline.

  5. 05

    Continuity

    After the presentation, the consultant may stay with the account to open a Vanguard conversation. If the client moves into a build, involvement may be limited to an early touchpoint, or none, depending on the engagement.

The Sequence

Engagements usually run for one to two weeks. The presentation outline and recon methodology are already in place. The consultant follows that process and works with the tools supplied for the engagement.

  • Week one — Discovery and interviews
  • Week two — Analysis and presentation

What You Bring

We look for consulting presence and the ability to run a precise interview. The kit supports the work; judgement still sits with the consultant.

Interview Craft
Comfortable on calls with client staff, and able to ask the questions that reveal how the process actually runs.
Consulting Fluency
Able to hold a technical or operational conversation without turning it into a sales pitch.
Synthesis
Six to eight sessions become a clear picture the client and the firm can act on.
Clarity
Findings read cleanly in the presentation and in any brief that follows.

The Ground

This role is remote. Physical client visits are only required where the engagement expands by request.

Hours
Full-time and part-time roles are available. Full-time work is limited to the United Kingdom and European timezones. Contractor roles are open in selected countries only for experienced consultants. Apply, and we will review the submission.
Compensation
