Shape evidence. Influence policy. Create impact.

At IPS Management Consultants, we're not your typical consultancy. As a majority Indigenous-owned, award-winning firm, we partner with government, corporate, and community clients to design and deliver solutions that drive meaningful, lasting change. From shaping policies and evaluating programs to embedding First Nations perspectives in projects across Australia, our work has real impact.

Now, we're looking for a Senior Consultant to bring expertise, innovation, and leadership to our growing team.

The Role

As a Senior Consultant, you'll lead and manage high-impact research, policy and evaluation projects, working closely with clients to deliver actionable insights and positive outcomes. You'll play a key role in mentoring consultants, driving project quality, and supporting business development.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced research and evaluation professional who thrives in a collaborative, fast-paced environment and is passionate about making a difference.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead and deliver complex research and evaluation projects using qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods.
  • Design robust methodologies to address client needs and ensure rigour.
  • Build strong client relationships and deliver tailored solutions.
  • Present findings and recommendations that are clear, actionable and impactful.
  • Engage ethically and respectfully with diverse stakeholders, including First Nations communities.
  • Mentor and support consultants in project delivery and professional growth.
  • Contribute to business development through proposals, pitches and networking.
What You'll Bring
  • Extensive experience leading research and evaluation projects.
  • Proven ability to deliver impactful, timely results.
  • Strong skills in qualitative and quantitative research, including mixed-methods approaches.
  • Exceptional writing, reporting and presentation skills.
  • Ability to build and maintain relationships with diverse clients and stakeholders.
  • High levels of drive, self-motivation and ethical practice.

Desirable

  • Advanced skills in data analysis and visualisation tools.
  • Relevant qualifications in research, evaluation, social sciences, psychology, economics, data science or related fields.
  • Experience working with Indigenous Australians and understanding of First Nations ways of knowing and working.

Why Join IPS?

  • Be part of a majority Indigenous-owned, award-winning consultancy.
  • Deliver projects that create real impact across communities, government and industry.
  • Join a supportive, innovative team that values diversity and inclusion.
  • Enjoy opportunities for professional development and growth.
