    Artemis Connection is a strategic management consultancy working across the for-profit, public and social sectors. We help clients around the world identify their most pressing strategic issues and we staff teams of strategy consultants to roll up their sleeves and deliver impact. We are passionate about helping innovative and entrepreneurial leaders reach their goals through a customized project-based approach, typically focused around:

    • Bespoke Innovation, Sales, and Marketing Strategy
    • Purpose-driven Transformation
    • Embedded Strategy and Operations roles

    Our founder is Christy Johnson, an entrepreneur, educator, and former McKinsey Engagement Manager. Our advisors include HR officers, executive coaches, academics, entrepreneurs, and neuroscientists. Our team is made up of seasoned consultants, trained at organizations such as McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group (BCG), Bain, Big 4 Strategy, and elite educational institutions.

    From the perspective of a potential employee, what makes Artemis Connection unique is the opportunity to combine this first-rate consulting experience with the flexibility that many other consulting firms don't offer. In short, we're a consulting firm for experienced top-tier consultants who still want to deliver exemplary value for clients but who need more flexibility in their professional and personal lives. Specifically, we're flexible with where you want to work and how many hours you want to work – meaning no rigid expectations of being at the client every day, living in a certain city, or clocking in a full 50 hours (or more) each week. Instead, we work with you to understand what flexibility that you need to make consulting work for you. Currently, our team members are spread across the country, engaging with clients remotely (and occasionally on-site, as client needs dictate) and working varied hours (ranging from 10 hours/week to 55 hours/week). We offer market-rate compensation based on the outcomes that you deliver and the number of hours and weeks that you will be leading project work (plus bonuses for bringing in new clients). As a growing organization, we also offer employees the opportunity to be involved in some of the operations it takes to form and scale a company – a great experience if you're considering starting your own company someday.

    Internally, we prioritize flexibility, which is why we've always been a fully remote organization, offering both full-time and part-time options for our team members. Given this flexible structure, and given our small size, we tend to bring on new team members in a “trial-to-hire” capacity. In other words, we initially hire individuals as independent contractors for discrete client projects, and then, after successful project completion and mutual determination of “fit”, we move toward a more permanent employment arrangement.

A sample week for an Artemis Strategist might include analyzing client data for insights, benchmarking client competitors via primary and secondary research methods, packaging findings into a client presentation, and joining a client read-out to capture next steps.
