Senior Consultant (Contract)

Hazel Seybert Consulting • Raleigh • 12m ago

We are Hazel Seybert Consulting - A boutique consulting firm dedicated to helping business leaders and their teams transform their business. We intentionally seek opportunities that are too small for big consulting companies and too strategic for staffing agencies.

At HSC, we believe that world-class business consultation must go beyond mere recommendation; it must be executed. Our consultant teams are purposely designed to ensure our clients have the best of both worlds, strategic business consulting AND effective implementation. Our services do not end with just recommendations; our consultants become an extension of the team, roll up their sleeves and work hand-in-hand with clients to execute and implement exceptional products and services.

Frequently we receive client requests for experienced professionals in specific areas of expertise to support short-term engagement projects (1-6 months). We are building an elite pool of individual, independent contractors called "ReWired Pros" to meet these needs in an on-going capacity. If you are interested in a C2C or Project Management opportunity and are comfortable with a flexible schedule (20-40 hours per week), keep reading . . .

There are a few things we look for across all team members and contractors, regardless of role or team. First, we look for contractors who will thrive in a culture where they understand that strong relationships lead to strong results within our team and extend out to our clients and the community. A successful working relationship depends on contractors whose values align with our DNA.

Servant Leadership Style: We are here to serve, rather than to be served.
Strategy and Execution: We plan the party, get it started, keep it going and clean-up afterwards.
Support: We save the day, so our heroes (clients) can save their world!
