About this opportunity
Addicus lists this Managing Director opportunity in oxford, Mississippi. Review the employer’s description below for duties, qualifications and application requirements.
Job description
The Managing Director (MD) is the front-line owner of the client relationship and the growth engine of Addicus Consulting Group. Unlike a traditional director who oversees delivery from behind the scenes, the MD is personally in front of the client — landing new business, setting the strategic course of each engagement, and owning the outcome when something goes wrong. The MD sells the work and drives the team to deliver it, turning first-phase engagements into long-term, expanding relationships built on trust.
This is a seat defined by ownership. The MD carries the P&L for their book of clients, travels to become each client’s confidant and trusted advisor, and is ultimately accountable for the quality of the work product their team produces. Standing up the MD model also takes institutional knowledge off any single person’s desk: the MD builds and develops the Relationship Managers beneath them so expertise, and the client relationship itself, can scale.
The Results This Seat Owns
What You Will Own: Client Relationship & Trust
Relationship Ownership — own each client relationship endtoend and become the person the client calls first when something matters.
Client Presence & Travel — travel to see clients in person; being in front of the client is core to the job, not an occasional exception.
Strategic CourseSetting — set the strategy, cadence, timelines, and deliverables of every engagement, aligned to the client’s actual objectives.
Issue Ownership — when something is not right, own it personally with the client and drive the resolution rather than escalating it away.
New Business & Growth
Landing New Clients — bring in and land new clients; run prospect meetings and sales trips and convert Phase I engagements into full relationships.
Reselling & Expansion — resell and expand work when a client gets nervous or an outside advisor gets in the way; continually surface new opportunities within each client’s wealth enterprise.
Pipeline Partnership — work with Business Development to keep a qualified pipeline moving and to assign the Relationship Manager for the final sales meeting.
Revenue Ownership — own the P&L for your book; drive revenue and retention and forecast performance with firm leadership.
Engagement Leadership & Handoff
Scope Definition — define the scope of work and hand it to Business Development for drafting; provide direction during prekickoff prep.
Kickoff & Direction — attend the kickoff call and set the initial timeline and strategy; meet with the RM to revise and approve the plan, including whether outside resources are needed.
WorkProduct Accountability — remain ultimately accountable for the success and quality of the work product; review final deliverables for alignment to client goals.
Building the Bench — grow and develop Relationship Managers so the model scales beyond any one person — teach the next person so expertise no longer runs through a single individual.
