Systems consultants are able to set up and perform user-based batch functions (such as automated packaging or date file transfers) as well as large-scale system functions (such as annual system setup and rule maintenance). System consulting opportunities are usually part-time for the length of the engagement and may include remote and/or on-site work. Prefer current experience with J1 or Workday.

Requirements

Qualifications, as demonstrated by application materials:

• At least 5 years of experience in administering Title IV federal financial aid.
• At least 5 years in a financial aid systems management position.
• Leadership in troubleshooting problems and implementing solutions to increase financial aid processing efficiency and system effectiveness.
• Experience in training other system users at all levels.

Time Commitment

Consulting assignments allow for maximum flexibility, especially when you are already working. As a consultant, you would be presented with a rough timeline, rate of pay, and project deliverables so you can make an informed decision to accept or decline a project based on your time and availability. 

Pay

We start consultants at a competitive hourly rate, which is paid bi-weekly. Consultants who lead teams of other consultants on larger projects may receive a higher hourly rate.
