Lead AI-powered operations strategy

Join Ace Workflow as a Workflow Consultant. Design AI-powered operations strategies that deliver real ROI. Part-time or contract-to-hire. Everything runs through Ace Flow.

Lead the AI-powered operations strategy for the companies fixing work.

Ace Workflow is the operational intelligence company. We fix work. We're building the network of forward deployed consultants designing the operations roadmaps that get them there, working with companies including Bessemer Venture Partners, Masterclass, Warner, The Economist, and ITV.

Strategy-led, paid, clearly scoped engagements. Matched to your industry expertise and the platforms you know.

Choose your commitment:

  • 20 hours/week. Part-time, for specialists balancing other work.
  • 30 hours/week. Substantial. Our most engaged consultants sit here.
  • 40 hours/week. Full immersion, premium compensation, priority project flow.

Why consultants choose Ace

Three things you won't find anywhere else:

  1. Real clients, real influence, real pay. You work directly with the C-suite and department heads to map workflows and design high-ROI roadmaps. No spec work. No middle-management handoffs. Every engagement is paid upfront, every scope locked before you start.
  2. We invest in you, not just in our margin. Paid training across AI strategy, no-code platforms, and change management. A $1,000 Airtable credit when you fully onboard. Anthropic Claude certifications covered. We pay for the skills that make you better because we know what compounded craft is worth.
  3. A real platform, not a job board. Matching, scoping, contracts, payment, and support all handled. You don't chase clients, write proposals, or negotiate scope. You strategize.
  4. $1,000 Airtable credit when you fully onboard!

Plus:

  • AI-first roadmaps. Most of what you design now blends AI agents into existing workflows, not bolts AI onto broken processes.
  • Strategic influence. Direct line to the executives making the decisions.
  • Flexible hours. Design your schedule around your life.
  • A private guild. Events, shared knowledge, and recognition for the work you ship.
