We are looking for an experienced management consultant with profound expertise in infrastructure and cloud – spanning public, private, and hybrid cloud architectures, modern datacenter services, and emerging models such as edge computing. You will advise clients on how to architect, source, transform, and optimize their infrastructure and cloud ecosystems, helping them improve performance, resilience, cost efficiency, and agility.

  • Assess providers’ cloud/infrastructure capabilities, operating models, and service architectures using ISG benchmarks, data, and AI-supported insights. 
  • Help clients define future-state cloud and infrastructure operating models, including governance, service integration, and transition planning. 
  • Facilitate workshops on cloud strategy, infrastructure modernization, edge adoption, and service design for senior stakeholders. 
  • Coach junior consultants and ensure quality across deliverables and analyses. 
  • Contribute to proposals, thought leadership, and the development of ISG’s cloud and infrastructure sourcing methodologies. 
  • Collaborate with international teams across consulting, research, benchmarking, and managed services. 
  
Required Qualifications 
  • 5–8 years of experience in technology consulting, infrastructure/cloud strategy, IT sourcing, vendor management, or adjacent fields. 
  • Strong understanding of infrastructure architectures, cloud models (public/hybrid/private), datacenter services, network services, and edge computing. 
  • Proven experience leading sourcing or transformation initiatives in these domains. 
  • Ability to translate complex technical topics (architecture, security, operating models, migration approaches) into actionable business decisions. 
  • Confident engagement with senior technical and business stakeholders. 
  • Strong analytical, presentation, and communication skills (German and English at C1+). 
  • Hands-on, structured, and comfortable working in agile, cross-functional teams. 
  • Experience mentoring junior consultants is an advantage. 
  
What we offer 
  • High-impact engagements shaping the next generation of cloud and infrastructure ecosystems for major organizations across industries. 
  • Clear development opportunities into Principal and leadership roles.
