Our Approach
Matchmaking engineered for consequential decisions.
TJBC Match™ combines a proprietary scoring engine with the judgment of senior partners to connect you with the consultant most likely to deliver your outcome.
The process
From brief to engagement in four steps.
A structured process that moves quickly without cutting corners, so you meet the right expert in days rather than months.
Discovery Brief
A 45-minute conversation with a TJBC partner to understand your objectives, constraints, culture and definition of success. We capture over 40 structured data points about your engagement.
Precision Matching
Our proprietary TJBC Match™ engine scores every consultant in our network across functional depth, sector experience, engagement history, working style and availability, surfacing the strongest candidates.
Partner Curation
Algorithms inform; people decide. A senior partner personally reviews the results, conducts reference checks and conflict screening, and presents a curated shortlist of two to three consultants.
Introduction & Governance
You meet your shortlisted experts, choose your consultant and begin work under a clear statement of work. TJBC stays engaged with quality reviews at every milestone.
Matching criteria
Six dimensions of fit, scored for every engagement.
Credentials alone do not predict success. Our engine weighs the factors that research and our own engagement data show matter most, and it learns from structured client feedback after every engagement, so each match is better informed than the last.
Functional depth
Proven delivery in the specific capability you need, not just adjacent experience.
Sector fluency
Years inside your industry, its regulators, its economics and its vocabulary.
Engagement pattern
Success on engagements of similar scale, complexity and duration.
Working style
Assessed fit with your leadership team’s pace, culture and decision-making.
Geography
Consultants in your region, time zone and regulatory jurisdiction.
Outcome record
Structured client feedback from every prior TJBC engagement feeds future matches.
Our network
Rigorously vetted. Exclusively senior.
Every consultant in the TJBC network has been assessed by a partner against the standards Janet Hull applied when building teams at the Big 4.
Match Assurance
We stand behind every introduction. If you are not satisfied with your consultant within the first two weeks of an engagement, we will rematch you at no additional cost.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
How is TJBC different from a traditional consulting firm?+
Traditional firms staff engagements from whoever is available on their bench, often with junior teams doing much of the work. TJBC matches you with a senior, independent expert selected specifically for your challenge, with partner oversight and quality governance throughout.
How are consultants vetted?+
Every consultant passes a multi-stage review: credential verification, structured interviews with a TJBC partner, case assessment, and at least three client references. Fewer than one in eight applicants are admitted to the network.
How quickly can an engagement begin?+
Most clients receive a curated shortlist within 72 hours of their discovery brief, and many engagements begin within two weeks.
What engagement models do you offer?+
Fixed-scope projects, interim leadership, ongoing advisory retainers and targeted expert sessions. We shape the commercial model around the outcome you need.
What if the match is not right?+
Our Match Assurance commitment means that if you are not satisfied within the first two weeks of an engagement, we will rematch you at no additional cost.
How do you handle confidentiality?+
All consultants operate under strict confidentiality agreements and are screened for conflicts of interest before any introduction. Your brief is shared only with shortlisted experts.
