JMAN Group is a fast-growing data engineering and data science consultancy. We partner primarily with Private Equity Funds and their portfolio companies to create commercial value through data and artificial intelligence. We also work with growth businesses, large corporates, and multinationals.

Headquartered in London with offices in New York, London, and Chennai, our team of 450+ combines expertise across strategy consulting, data science, and software engineering. Since our founding in 2019 by Anush Newman (CEO) and Leo Valan (CTO), we have scaled rapidly, supported by a minority investment from Baird Capital in 2023.

Position:

You’ll be well‑suited to operating in a humble, fast‑paced, and growing business, where client needs are demanding and delivery standards are high. In this role, you’ll leverage your consulting experience, commercial acumen, end‑to‑end project management skills, and collaborative mindset to deliver impact for clients and help build JMAN as a firm.

• Act as an ambassador of JMAN values and provide mentorship to more junior members in the team.

Requirements:

• Must be authorized to work in the U.S. without sponsorship now or in the future.
• 1+ years relevant experience, ideally in consulting/professional services, but we’d also be interested if you’ve built strong consulting-style skills in places like investment banking, private equity, or a fast-paced start-up.

• Strong academic background and quantitative ability.
• Confidence with numbers and numerate (e.g. financial modelling, data analysis).
• Commercial acumen and commercially minded.
• Tech-toolkit wise, you’ve probably picked up (and want to grow further) in things like Excel, Tableau, Power Bi, Alteryx, Python, PPT or SQL.
