About the Role
Boston Consulting Group (BCG) partners with leaders in business and society to tackle their most important challenges and capture their greatest opportunities. Founded in 1963 as a pioneer in business strategy, BCG today helps clients with total transformation—enabling complex change, fostering growth, building competitive advantage, and driving bottom-line impact. Our diverse, global teams bring deep industry and functional expertise combined with a range of perspectives to spark change. We deliver solutions through leading-edge management consulting, technology and design, corporate and digital ventures, and business purpose. We operate in a uniquely collaborative model across the firm and throughout all levels of client organizations, generating results that allow our clients to thrive.

As a Senior Manager, Sustainability within BCG's Global Internal Sustainability Team, you will lead critical cross-functional sustainability initiatives that fall outside existing pillar structures but are essential to advancing BCG's Net Zero and environmental sustainability ambitions. This is a high-autonomy, hands-on delivery role focused on converting early-stage ideas into tangible, scalable outcomes. You will shape, execute, and deliver priority programs in fast-moving and often ambiguous spaces, evolving your work based on emerging sustainability topics and business needs.

Key areas of responsibility include:
- Program design and delivery: Structure and lead multi-workstream sustainability projects with strategic and operational complexity.
- Cross-functional coordination: Collaborate across pillar leads, regional teams, and senior leadership to ensure alignment, credibility, and momentum.
- Execution oversight: Drive progress through robust workplans, stakeholder engagement, and effective risk and issue management.
- Strategy translation: Identify evolving priorities and translate them into actionable programs, pilots, or internal system improvements.
- Emergent initiative leadership: Lead exploratory efforts in areas such as internal carbon pricing, ESG governance, sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and removals strategy, or internal behavior change campaigns.

Experience
- 8+ years of experience in consulting, strategy, program delivery, or innovation in dynamic, cross-functional settings.
- Proven ability to lead initiatives with high autonomy and deliver outcomes in environments with limited precedent or playbooks.
- Experience working across functions and influencing senior stakeholders in matrixed organizations.

About you
- Strategic operator who thrives in complexity and ambiguity, able to turn emerging ideas into structured programs and measurable results.
- Skilled at driving end-to-end program execution in complex, high-stakes settings.
- Strong relationship builder with the ability to influence without formal authority.
- Excellent at synthesizing insights quickly and translating technical or strategic sustainability topics into operational programs.
- Comfortable managing ambiguity, making tradeoffs, and prioritizing in fluid environments.
- Motivated to contribute to climate action and shape enabling systems within a global firm.

Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree required; Master's degree or equivalent in business, public policy, or related fields preferred.
- Familiarity with sustainability and climate topics is a plus but not a prerequisite; core problem-solving skills and ability to ramp up quickly are more important.
- Exceptional structured thinking, analytical, and communication skills.
