The Company
A rapidly growing transformation consultancy delivering high-impact programmes across financial services. The business has a strong pipeline of secured work and offers an entrepreneurial environment with significant autonomy and direct client exposure.
The Project
You’ll join a secured retail banking transformation programme, supporting the business side of a technology-enabled finance transformation. You'll be working across finance processes, controls, reporting and operating-model design, requiring a strong understanding of accounting principles alongside transformation expertise.
You Will:
- Lead business transformation activity alongside a wider technology-enabled programme
- Translate technology change into operational, process and business impacts
- Build credibility with senior stakeholders and drive decisions forward
- Take ownership of programme delivery without relying on large supporting teams
- Identify priorities independently and turn them into practical actions and outcomes
You Will Need:
- Strong management consulting experience at Manager level (or above)
- Credible finance or accounting knowledge, ideally holding ACA, ACCA, or CIMA qualifications
- Proven finance, business, operational or technology-enabled transformation delivery
- Excellent senior stakeholder, client-facing and programme delivery capabilities
- A hands-on approach and confidence operating independently within ambiguous environments
Why You’ll Love It:
- An initial six-month assignment with potential extension opportunities
- Predominantly remote working rather than a heavily office-based consulting model
- Significant autonomy and direct exposure to senior client stakeholders
- The opportunity to join a high-growth consultancy delivering secured transformation work
