Founding Member, Senior Digital Solutions Consultant (Delhi NCR - Hybrid)
About this role
The Digital Solution Consultant helps transform high-value business opportunities into practical, testable Digital & AI solutions. Working at the intersection of business, technology, and user experience, this role partners with practices and corporate teams to understand how work gets done, identify where technology can create meaningful value, and translate promising ideas into pilots that can be tested and validated with real users.
This is not a traditional business analyst, project manager, or technology support role. The Digital Solution Consultant takes ownership of the business side of individual initiatives, from initial discovery and opportunity definition through pilot validation, adoption, and value realization. Working closely with Innovation Engineers and enterprise technology partners, this individual helps rapidly test concepts, gather user feedback, refine solutions, and determine whether an initiative should scale, remain business-led, undergo further iteration, or stop.
This role also offers the unique opportunity to join as a founding member of J.S. Held’s new Digital Innovation Foundry hub in New Delhi. As part of the hub’s initial team, the Digital Solution Consultant will have the opportunity to help shape its culture, ways of working, and approach to identifying and delivering Digital & AI solutions, while building strong partnerships with colleagues and technology teams across the global organization.
As an early member of the Digital Innovation Foundry, this individual will also help establish a repeatable model for identifying, validating, and scaling high-value Digital & AI opportunities across the firm. The role is ideal for someone with a builder mindset, strong business judgment, comfort navigating ambiguity, and the ability to move fluidly between strategic thinking, stakeholder engagement, and hands-on execution.
Key Responsibilities
Business Discovery & Opportunity Shaping
• Partner with practices and corporate functions to understand workflows, pain points, unmet needs, and opportunities to improve how work gets done. • Translate loosely defined ideas into clear problem statements, target users, use cases, expected outcomes, and testable hypotheses. • Conduct workflow discovery through interviews, observation, workshops, document review, and other user-centered research methods. • Assess current processes, tools, information flows, data needs, user behaviors, and constraints before recommending a solution path. • Assess opportunities and provide recommendations to support portfolio prioritization based on business value, user demand, feasibility, readiness, risk, and potential for reuse. • Challenge solution-first thinking and ensure the team is solving a meaningful business problem before committing resources.
