About Us

Malk Partners, now part of SLR Consulting, is consulting firm that advises many of the world’s most successful investors on risk management and responsible investment. Malk assists asset managers in establishing best-in-class environmental, social, and governance (ESG) programs that are deployed throughout the investment lifecycle in order to mitigate risk and create value. We partner with firms that invest across a range of industries and investment strategies, including financial services, healthcare, technology, manufacturing, and consumer products. Malk was an early entrant into this rapidly evolving industry and continues to be at the forefront of ESG innovation and defining best practices. Malk’s dedicated Multi-Strategy team was formed to better serve the world’s largest asset managers in asset classes including private equity, private credit, real estate, infrastructure, and secondaries in executing against their ESG commitments and strengthening their overall ESG programs to create value and meet investor expectations.

Job Description

Senior Consultants serve as engagement leads for Malk’s Multi-Strategy clients, overseeing the design and delivery of ESG and responsible investment solutions across asset classes including private equity, private credit, real estate, infrastructure, and secondaries. Senior Consultants are responsible for managing full client engagements—from initial scoping through final deliverables—while ensuring Malk’s work meets the highest standards of analytical rigor, project execution, and client service.

Senior Consultants act as strategic advisors to clients, helping them translate ESG considerations into value-creation opportunities and operational improvements. They also play a key role in expanding client relationships, identifying opportunities to deepen or broaden Malk’s support, and guiding team members to effectively deliver on complex workstreams. Overtime, Senior Consultants may have the opportunity to become managers of around one to three individuals.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability Form CC-305
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
