Board Intelligence is a technology and advisory firm on a mission to make boards more effective, and through them, build better businesses and benefit society.
Over twenty years we have established ourselves as the market leader in governance and board effectiveness, trusted by more than 80,000 directors, executives, and governance professionals globally, including across the Fortune 500, FTSE 100, and OMX 30. That trust has been earned through depth of insight, rigorous advisory work, and a track record that newer entrants simply cannot replicate.
We have invested in applied AI since 2020, well ahead of the market, and that early conviction has paid off. Our AI-powered platform and smart board advisor give us a competitive advantage that is widening, not narrowing. In 2024, K1 Investment Management, the leading B2B Enterprise SaaS investor, backed us to accelerate that position further. We are now growing fast, with a proven commercial model spanning both mid-market and enterprise, and a product suite that has become a necessary addition in high-stakes board environments.
The people joining us now will shape how we scale. We are deliberate about how we do that. Our founders and leadership team are deeply invested in keeping the culture that got us here: thoughtful, high calibre, and genuinely human. Ambition and balance are not in competition at Board Intelligence.
If you want to work at the intersection of AI and governance, on problems that matter at the highest level, this is a strong place to be.
Our Mission
We unleash the potential of organisations through the science of board effectiveness, building better businesses and benefitting society.
Role Overview
Board Intelligence is a high-growth SaaS and advisory business. As we expand our advisory services, we are seeking a Consulting Manager with 3-5 years’ experience within a Big 4 or similar boutique strategy or management consulting firm. This is an opportunity to take ownership of the delivery of high-impact, project-based advisory work focused on helping boards, executive teams and organisations improve strategic decision-making, organisational performance and governance. You will work directly with c-suite clients, shaping solutions, building strong relationships and developing your profile as a trusted advisor.
Unlike traditional consulting environments, you’ll be part of a fast-paced, entrepreneurial team where innovation is encouraged, and your insights will help shape our advisory offerings. You’ll contribute across Board Intelligence’s full advisory portfolio—including strategic advisory, board effectiveness, governance and executive advisory engagements—while collaborating closely with our Product and Technology teams to weave advisory expertise into our SaaS and AI solutions, driving meaningful impact for our clients.
