About McChrystal Group:

McChrystal Group is a leadership and management consulting firm that partners with executive teams to solve their most complex performance and coordination challenges. Founded in 2011 by General (Ret.) Stanley McChrystal, we help organizations operate with the speed, alignment, and cohesion required to succeed in dynamic environments.

Our work is rooted in the Team of Teams® framework—a leadership system developed from General McChrystal’s transformation of the Joint Special Operations Command. We believe that enduring performance depends not just on strategy, but on how effectively leaders, teams, and systems work together under pressure.

McChrystal Group consultants work on small, high-impact teams tackling challenges that matter. You’ll work shoulder to shoulder with senior executives, world-class advisors, and teammates who take pride in the quality, integrity, and purpose of their work. The pace is demanding, the problems are complex, and the impact is tangible. People join McChrystal Group because they want to grow as leaders and do work that makes a difference.

Role Overview:

The Associate is an integral member of McChrystal Group’s Implementation Practice, the team that partners with senior executives through longer-term, transformational engagements that blend leadership advisory, process improvement, and the design of systems that enable coordinated performance at scale.

Implementation teams help clients translate strategy into action by building the capabilities and operating rhythms that sustain results long after our engagement ends.

As an Associate, you will support complex client engagements from diagnosis through execution, contributing to discrete workstreams while learning the fundamentals of consulting, implementation, and client service. You’ll work closely with more seasoned consultants in small, cross-functional teams - developing analyses, preparing client-ready materials, supporting workshops, and helping translate executive intent into practical action. Associates are expected to take initiative, learn quickly, and consistently deliver high-quality, structured work in a fast-paced environment. Through close mentorship, frequent feedback, and direct exposure to senior client leaders and McChrystal Group’s experienced practitioners, Associates build the analytical, communication, and execution skills required to grow into more senior client-facing roles.

Our work blends consulting discipline with operational execution. An Associate may support a Fortune 100 client undergoing a leadership and operating model transformation, or contribute to a public-sector engagement focused on improving coordination and delivery across a complex stakeholder environment. Every project is hands-on, team-based, and focused on measurable impact.
