About SYPartners

SY Partners is a consulting firm that focuses on transformation. Using the tools of strategy and design, we work alongside CEOs, leaders, and their executive teams to design a better future for their organizations particularly in times of great change.

The animating data that drives us is our belief that organizations designed for both humanity and performance create unprecedented impact. We partner with leaders in organizations that have the courage and rigor to pursue both as equally essential and mutually reinforcing.

And we seek to design our own organization in alignment with this idea, as well. SYPartners was founded in 1994. The company is headquartered in New York City with an office in Abu Dhabi, and is a founding member of kyu, a collective of best-in-class creative firms.

The Opportunity

This consultant is the hub of a project seeing and managing the whole system, ensuring that all elements of the program are accounted for and connected, and constantly assessing if the program execution is fully aligned with the overall strategic intent. Partnering closely with other consultants on the strategy, design, and studio teams, the Senior PM orchestrates powerful experiences that help our clients see a new way forward, and insightful plans and tools that help them take action.
