“Your business is our business.” If our Business Management and Operations Team had a slogan, that's what it would be. The fact is, though, that the members of this team are far too busy ensuring our consultants' work is efficient and productive to have the time to come up with slogans. Whether Executive or Management Assistant, Receptionist, Facility Staff member, Team Lead, or Office Manager: Each and every member contributes directly to our consultants' success—and thus to that of our clients.

In cases where you substitute for team members, you'll also take over welcoming and onboarding our new colleagues on their first day. At the same time, you'll ensure that the offboarding process for departing colleagues is handled smoothly and positively, leaving them with a good overall experience.
