WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

We are looking for Principals (m/f/d) to join our team as soon as possible and ideally be based in Berlin.

The role of a Principal encompasses the following:

• Supporting senior management in the strategic and operational development of Value for Good
• Managing and delivering client projects
• Developing new client relationships
• Mentoring consultants

We are looking to fill the following two Principal roles at Value for Good:
1. A “generalist” Principal to join our team and provide all-round leadership on consulting projects across our three practice groups: global development, private sector and local impact. Depending on expertise and passion, Principals can specialise in any of these practice groups.

You would be a great fit for this role if you have:

• Demonstrated passion and commitment to work on societal challenges
• Altogether minimum of 6 years of work experience, including:
• 3+ years of top-tier strategy consulting
• Extensive project leadership experience working on societal challenges with reputable organisations
• Very strong track record in managing projects and teams
• Keen interest to foster the development of junior colleagues via training and coaching
• Strong motivation to actively contribute to Value for Good’s growth and business development
• Curiosity, eagerness to learn, and passion to contribute to a strong team culture
• Fluency in English is a must. German and French language skills are considered an asset

1. A Principal focused on our Human Development Accelerator (HDX) engagement for at least 1 year (thereafter you could “roll off” the project to support other projects across our practice groups). HDX is a partnership between the European Commission (EC), the European Investment Bank (EIB) and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) to provide more than €1 billion of guarantees and grants for enabling innovation and improving access to healthcare in low- and middle-income countries. Value for Good (VfG), from the outset, has supported this partnership by setting up the HDX Hub which is a dedicated team sitting within the EIB who are tasked with identifying and executing a pipeline of over €1billion of deals. VfG has also been acting as the secretariat to provide governance and operational support and ensure the partnership is able to effectively deliver on their ambitious targets.
