Senior Consultant – Operating Model

We are a dynamic consulting firm, focused on delivering sustainable change. We help our clients succeed in their long-term goals by turning strategy into action through exceptional delivery and a commitment to building a culture of change. As a transformation consultancy, we work with clients to shape the way they operate, deliver services and manage their people – helping them adapt to disruption and thrive in a changing world.

We pride ourselves on being proactive, collaborative and straightforward team players. We move fast as a team, and honesty and integrity are key to how we work. You’ll be part of a supportive and high-performing team that shares the load, looks after each other and celebrates success together. You can expect an exciting and varied career that will stretch and develop you, with opportunities to help organisations respond to change and deliver lasting impact.

At Moorhouse, our Operating Model team plays a central role in this. We support clients to design and implement future-fit organisations – aligning their structures, capabilities, governance, and ways of working to strategic ambition. Whether it’s enterprise-wide design, function-level optimisation or future capability definition, we bring a pragmatic and insight-led approach to help clients move from ambition to action.

What are we looking for? Potential is what excites us so we are keen to hear from people who want to harness their experience within an organisation that will invest in their professional development from day one. This isn’t just about skills for the job but skills for life – mindset, adaptability, resilience and leadership to name just a few. You will be leading and shaping how we run the business, and in doing so will have experiences that will undoubtedly contribute to your accelerated growth and development.

We are looking for a Senior Consultant to join our Operating Model team, helping lead the delivery of our client work and supporting the continued growth of our offering. This role is for someone who is excited by the opportunity to lead work streams on operating model and organisation transformation programmes, own significant scoped deliverables, and work directly with senior client stakeholders. You will also contribute to bids and propositions and play a visible role in internal initiatives that strengthen our team, ways of working and impact.

• Strong problem solving and analytical skills, with the ability to use qualitative and quantitative insight to identify root causes, shape practical recommendations and support robust decision-making
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, including building trust quickly, engaging and influencing senior stakeholders, and leading discussions through clear, compelling outputs
• A collaborative approach, with experience guiding more junior colleagues and working across mixed client and consulting teams to deliver high-quality outcomes
• Commercial awareness and experience contributing to business development, for example through proposal development, bid writing, identifying opportunities, or helping shape client conversations
• A strong sense of ownership beyond client delivery, with experience contributing to internal initiatives, proposition development, knowledge building or improvements to ways of working
