Project Consultant Duties and Responsibilities
Since the role of project consultant is broad, it involves many duties and responsibilities, many of which vary depending on the industry of employment. We analyzed project consultant job descriptions to come up with this list of the most relevant core duties of project consultants:
Evaluate Project Parameters All project consultants, regardless of industry, evaluate the project parameters. This involves interviewing clients and actively listening to their answers. The better they perform this duty, the easier the following duties are to complete.
Analyze Project Strengths and Areas Needing Improvement Project consultants use their understanding of the client’s overall goals to analyze their current progress for strengths and areas needing improvement. The level of progress varies for each client. Sometimes their job involves making small tweaks to an existing plan, and other times, it involves creating a whole new plan from scratch. A variation of the SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) is used by many project consultants.
Devise a Project Plan Based on Client Needs Once project consultants understand the client goals and the resources available, they create a project plan outlining how resources will be used to achieve the project parameters.
Delegate Project Tasks to Employees Project consultants who work in-house are directly responsible for delegating project tasks to each employee to get the project done as efficiently as possible. Project consultants who work on their own or for a consulting firm coach decision makers through this process.
Test and Tweak Project Solutions to Perfection Project consultants monitor the completion of each stage of the project, making tweaks to the plan based on feedback. They are also responsible for testing the effectiveness of the project solutions if applicable.
Present Plans and Results to Project Stakeholders Finally, project consultants spend a fair amount of time presenting both their plans and final results to project stakeholders. This requires good communication and negotiation skills.
Project Consultant Skills
Project consultants must be experts in the principles of project management as they define the scope and tasks of each project. Performing basic cost calculations and analysis is another technical skill project consultants call upon often. Those with an ability to see the big picture and how the pieces of the puzzle fit together do well in this position. In addition, the following skills are required to succeed as a project consultant:
- Interviewing clients to determine their specific project needs
- Defining project parameters based on client needs
- Analyzing current project strengths and weaknesses using SWOT analysis
- Creating specific project plans based on the principles of project management
- Delegating tasks to employees using project management software such as Asana or Trello
Project Consultant Education and Training
Project consultants need a bachelor’s degree in business administration, project management, or a related field. Coursework covers the principles of business, economics, project management, and organizational communication.
Project Consultant Salary
According to Glassdoor, the national median salary for project consultants is $71,202. Those at the high end of the scale make $97,000, and those at the low end of the scale make $47,000.
