Our Organisation Effectiveness & Agility practice are looking for an experienced consultant to join the team. We are experts who put people first to transform organisations through future-ready operating models, agile ways of working, and enterprise transformation. We help our clients build more adaptive, effective, and sustainable organisations by shaping how people, processes, and emerging technologies come together. This expertise spans multiple industries, reflecting our current cross-industry approach. However, we are now prioritising deep industry specialisation, particularly in Energy & Resources, Government and Financial Services. Our experts partner closely with our industry-focused colleagues and go to market together.

What you will be doing

• Supporting the design and implementation of future-fit target operating models, organisational structures and governance frameworks that align to strategic priorities and enable agility.
• Redesigning operating models to improve efficiency, reduce costs and unlock long-term value through streamlined processes and resource allocation.
• Supporting complex organisational transitions, such as mergers, acquisitions or new business units, by designing and embedding capabilities that enable smooth integration and operational effectiveness.
• Evolving processes, decision-making, and funding models to foster collaboration, innovation and responsiveness at scale.
• Applying analytics and diagnostic tools (e.g. OrgVue) to assess spans, layers, costs, and workforce performance, translating insights into actionable design options.

Some examples of the work you’ll do:

• Supporting the design of future-ready operating models that align with strategic priorities, balancing efficiency, agility, and innovation.
• Helping clients assess structural choices, clarifying trade-offs between centralisation, decentralisation, and hybrid models to enable effective decision-making.
• Contributing to end-to-end operating model transformations, including governance design.
• Supporting organisational transitions by embedding structures and ways of working that ensure continuity and growth.
• Helping deliver cost and productivity optimisation programmes through redesign of processes, spans and layers and resource allocation without compromising agility.
• Using data and diagnostic tools to understand organisational performance and translate insights into practical design options.
• Supporting clients to build lasting capability through leadership alignment, behavioural change, and practical tooling.

Your skills and experience

We’re looking for exceptional consultants with a strong foundation in enterprise transformation – particularly in reshaping how organisations are structured, governed and delivered. You’ll likely bring:

• Proven consulting experience in enterprise transformation, including operating model design and delivery.
• A good understanding of organisational design and governance, with the ability to shape structures, processes, and decision-making frameworks.
• Experience working with stakeholders in large, complex organisations navigating disruption, emerging technology adoption and strategic change.
• Knowledge of transformation levers such as cost optimisation, capability building and integration to enable sustainable organisational change.
• Familiarity with delivery tools and methods (e.g. Orgvue, Jira, Planview, OKRs or Agile at Scale) to support execution at pace.
• Confidence working with leaders and teams through ambiguity, helping them adapt to new ways of working and organisational models.
• A hypothesis-driven approach to problem solving - you ask the right questions, simplify the complex, and stay focused on impact.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, client-facing role with shifting priorities and multiple workstreams.
