We are a dynamic consulting firm, focused on delivering sustainable change. We ensure our clients succeed in their long-term goals by helping them turn their strategy into action through exceptional delivery and a commitment to establishing a culture of change. Clients like what we do and how we work, and we are looking for people to join the Moorhouse team. We pride ourselves on being proactive, collaborative, and straightforward team players. We work efficiently and collaboratively as a team and both honesty and integrity are key to this.

We encourage behaviours that promote transparency, collaboration and achievement of shared goals.

Over the last six years, Moorhouse has extended its reach into the Energy and Utilities (E&U) sector. The growth in E&U clients for Moorhouse has been the result of clients in the sector wanting to look beyond their traditional consultancy suppliers. They are interested in agile, integrated teams working in a truly collaborative way. As many clients in the sector grapple with significant changes in customer, regulatory and technology infrastructure expectations, they have sought our help in developing new approaches and revised operating models.
