Senior Managing Partner, Consulting — Gartner
At Gartner, we guide the leaders who shape the world, equipping them with indispensable insights, advice, and tools to achieve mission-critical priorities.
Gartner Consulting is where that insight becomes action, helping the world’s most influential enterprises and public-sector leaders turn complexity into competitive advantage.
As a Senior Managing Partner in Gartner Consulting North America, you will advise the country’s most influential organizations on the decisions that will define their next decade.
The Opportunity
As a Senior Managing Partner, you operate at the intersection of strategy, technology, and executive leadership. You are a trusted advisor to CIOs, CEOs, and senior government leaders—helping them navigate disruption, make high-stakes decisions, and turn technology into a driver of growth, resilience, and transformation.
You will own and expand a portfolio of Gartner’s most important clients, bringing the full force of Gartner’s unmatched insights, benchmarking, and global expertise to their most mission-critical challenges.
Why This Role Matters in North America
North America’s enterprises face a distinctive set of pressures:
- Modernizing deeply entrenched legacy environments without disrupting operations
- Balancing global digital acceleration with local compliance, risk management, and governance
- Turning data, AI, and cloud investments into measurable value—not pilots
- Managing ecosystem complexity across vendors, integrators, and internal stakeholders
- Optimizing cost while maintaining quality, security, and brand trust
Gartner Consulting helps leaders navigate this complexity with evidence-based decisions, benchmarks, and pragmatic execution.
What You’ll Do
- Advise at the highest level. Partner with senior executives to define technology strategies that directly enable business outcomes—growth, efficiency, innovation, and risk mitigation.
- Turn insight into execution. Lead hands-on consulting engagements grounded in Gartner insights, helping clients move from “what should we do?” to “how do we make this real?”
- Drive measurable value. Help organizations modernize platforms, rationalize applications, migrate to cloud, unlock data and analytics, manage cyber risk, and optimize cost and sourcing.
- Expand account portfolio and drive revenue growth through strategic relationship development and consistently identifying and closing new opportunities.
- Lead exceptional teams. Inspire, coach, and develop high-performing consultants who thrive on solving complex problems.
Where You’ll Make Impact
Your client work will span some of the most critical priorities facing enterprises today, including:
- Digital Acceleration & Enterprise Transformation
- Cloud Strategy and Operating Models
- Data, Analytics & AI Enablement
- Application and Portfolio Rationalization
- Cybersecurity, Risk & Resilience
- Sourcing, Ecosystem & Vendor Optimization
- Contract, Cost & Value Optimization
- Benchmark-driven decision making
With a particular focus on Federal Civilian (Dept Energy, FAA, Transportation, Department of Health), you will help leaders modernize legacy environments while competing in increasingly digital, data-driven markets.
What Sets You Apart
- A proven background in a well-regarded consulting firm, balancing client delivery and revenue generation.
- Strong foundation in technology problem-solving (architecture, analytics, engineering, or strategy roles).
- Credibility across multiple IT domains—not just one “lane”.
- A track record of leading teams with a strong collaboration mindset, influencing executives, and delivering outcomes—not just recommendations.
- Intellectual curiosity and the confidence to adapt Gartner’s frameworks to each client’s unique situation.
- The stamina and presence to juggle multiple senior-level client priorities without losing focus or quality.
- MBA or advanced degree preferred.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
