Associate Consultant

Reporting To: Founder / Lead Consultant

About the Role

We are building next-generation smart, scalable, and practical solutions for public infrastructure challenges—ranging from river and plastic waste cleaning, urban water drainage, flood mitigation, and sustainable infrastructure, to policy design and government implementation frameworks.

As an Associate Consultant, you will work closely with the founder to research, design, analyse, and structure real-world solutions that governments and public agencies can actually deploy—not just PowerPoint ideas.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys deep problem-solving, uses AI and the internet as leverage, and wants to work at the intersection of engineering, policy, data, and impact.

Key Responsibilities

Assist in designing policies, frameworks, and execution models for:

River and water-body cleaning

Plastic waste collection & processing

Urban drainage & flood management

Smart and sustainable infrastructure systems

Conduct deep research using:

Global case studies

Government tenders, reports, and data

International best practices

AI tools for synthesis, modelling, and insight generation

Perform basic to advanced quantitative analysis, including:

Cost–benefit analysis

Feasibility calculations

Capacity, flow, and efficiency estimates

Impact measurement models

Translate complex problems into clear solution frameworks suitable for:

Government presentations

Policy notes

Implementation proposals

Pilot project documents

Coordinate with implementation agencies, domain experts, and solution providers to validate ideas on-ground.

Continuously identify systemic gaps in governance and infrastructure, and propose practical, implementable fixes.

Required Skills & Qualifications

Strong ability to research intelligently using the internet and AI tools (ChatGPT, data tools, reports, dashboards, etc.)

Excellent analytical and logical thinking

Comfort with numbers, calculations, and structured reasoning

Ability to break down large, messy real-world problems into solvable components

Clear written and verbal communication

Self-driven, curious, and impact-oriented mindset

Preferred Background (Not Mandatory)

Engineering (Civil / Environmental / Mechanical / Infrastructure-related)

Urban planning, public policy, economics, or sustainability

Experience with infrastructure projects, consulting, or government-related work

Familiarity with environmental systems, water management, or waste management

What This Role Is NOT

Not a clerical or documentation-only role

Not a routine consulting job with copy-paste slides

Not for people looking only for titles or hierarchy

This role is for builders, thinkers, and problem-solvers who want to shape how cities, rivers, and systems actually work.

What You’ll Gain

Direct exposure to government consulting and policy design

Hands-on involvement in high-impact public infrastructure problems

Opportunity to work on large-scale, funded, real-world projects

Close mentorship and fast learning curve

Long-term growth into Lead Consultant / Domain Specialist roles
