The Role
You will manage the administrative flow of our advisory engagements. This involves tracking the progress of memoranda from initial reading through to the final signed document. You will organize the internal review schedules for our Milan-based project, ensuring that every piece of analysis is proofed and revised according to our firm's protocols. Much of your day will involve reading internal cases and organizing the logic of our files. You will also coordinate communication between our principals and the client executive offices, maintaining the discretion required for such sensitive work. This is not a role of managing people, but one of managing the discipline and accuracy of the written word.
What You Bring
We are looking for an individual with an exceptional command of written English and a keen eye for logical consistency. This is an entry level position, so we value intellectual maturity and the ability to learn our specific method of analytical writing. We need someone who can follow complex arguments and identify gaps in a narrative. Helpful background for this role includes:
- A university degree in a field that requires rigorous research and writing, such as history, law, philosophy, or economics.
- The ability to work independently in a fully remote setting, staying organized without constant supervision.
- Basic familiarity with project tracking tools and professional correspondence.
- A preference for written communication over verbal meetings.
- Strong attention to detail, particularly in document formatting and version control.
- Discretion and the ability to handle confidential corporate information.
- Willingness to receive and implement direct feedback on writing and logic.
At JHC, we believe that writing is the primary tool for thinking. We do not use slide decks or presentations to communicate our findings. Instead, we produce signed memoranda that provide a permanent record of our counsel. Every document is the responsibility of a single author who has conducted the analysis. As a coordinator, you will support this process by ensuring the author has all necessary internal documents and that the revision cycle is respected. Our approach is slow and thorough, prioritizing the quality of the argument over the speed of delivery. We value the courage to name uncomfortable truths and the intellectual rigor required to trace every claim back to a clear assumption.
Working at JHC Consulting
This is a permanent, full-time position conducted entirely in a remote environment. We provide a competitive salary that is attractive for an entry level role in the advisory sector. Because we are a remote firm, we value clear, written communication in all our internal interactions. You will have the autonomy to manage your schedule as long as the work meets our firm's deadlines. We offer a professional environment where the focus is strictly on the work itself rather than corporate ceremonies or unnecessary meetings. You will be expected to maintain a quiet, professional workspace suitable for deep reading and analysis.
Every piece of work at JHC Consulting carries the signature of the person who created it. This creates a high level of individual accountability and requires a commitment to accuracy. By coordinating these efforts, you play a part in maintaining the integrity of the counsel we provide. We expect our staff to handle every document with the understanding that it may be held on file by a board of directors for many years, serving as a record of critical decision-making. The discipline of the written word is the foundation of everything we do.
