"Consulting" looks different depending on the area of expertise and firm culture. At CRA, it means...

  • Writing and editing. We work closely with our clients to craft messages that inform communication opportunities for their organization and often draft specific communications (e.g., organization-wide emails, Town Hall talking points) for executive leadership or projects.
  • Directing research and feedback initiatives to understand the current state and advise on next steps to help clients reach their goals.
  • Giving advice and counsel, either through coaching engagements or our work on larger projects.
  • Managing projects and building relationships. In our lean organization, we not only get the work done but also develop client networks and manage our projects every step of the way. We build relationships first and look for opportunities to partner with clients with whom we enjoy working.
  • Working alongside a range of different teams, often at the same time. A CRA Consultant is almost always managing multiple client engagements at the same time, ranging from working alongside teams and to working 1:1 with a particular leader as a coach and advisor.
  • Managing delivery of agreed services and resources for diverse client portfolios with minimal supervision, balancing priorities and maintaining quality standards independently.
  • Contributing to commercial and reputational success through relationship-building, thought leadership, and identifying new opportunities that create value for existing and potential clients.

As a consultant, you will jump right into challenging consulting engagements, including the development of corporate strategy messaging, leadership transitions, and all manner of institutional change. You will receive mentorship in every element of your professional development.
