Managing Partner, IT Strategy Consulting, Insurance

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 turns insight into action, helping enterprises and public‑sector leaders transform complexity into competitive advantage. As a Managing Partner in Gartner Consulting North America, you advise top organizations on long‑term decisions.

The Opportunity

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 use technology to drive growth, resilience, and transformation.

You own and expand a portfolio of Gartner’s most important clients, bringing the full force of Gartner’s insights, benchmarking, and global expertise.

Why This Role Matters in North America

• 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—rather than pilots
• Managing ecosystem complexity across vendors, integrators, and internal stakeholders
• Optimizing cost while maintaining quality, security, and brand trust

What You’ll Do

• Advise at the highest level. Partner with senior executives to define technology strategies that enable business outcomes—growth, efficiency, innovation, and risk mitigation.
• Turn insight into execution. Lead hands‑on consulting engagements grounded in Gartner insights, moving clients 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.

What Sets You Apart

• Strong foundation in technology problem‑solving (architecture, analytics, engineering, or strategy roles)
• Insurance industry subject matter expertise, business capability and process expertise, and expertise in core insurance technology solutions
• Credibility across multiple IT domains—not just one “lane”
• Track record of leading teams with a strong collaboration mindset, influencing executives, and delivering outcomes—not just recommendations
• Intellectual curiosity and confidence to adapt Gartner’s frameworks to each client’s unique situation
• Stamina and presence to juggle multiple senior‑level client priorities without losing focus or quality
• MBA or advanced degree preferred
