Job Description:

At this consultancy we solve the most complex and critical challenges by moving quickly from analysis to action when it really matters; creating value that has a lasting impact on companies, their people, and the communities they serve. We prize diversity and inclusion, the intellectually curious, the inventive, and the forward-thinking. We invite you to influence the way we work, and define the way we embrace tomorrow.

Our Digital transformation and CIO Advisory team provide independent, senior-level expertise that enables executives to drive value from Technology and as a result to improve business performance.

You have high levels of responsibility and accountability in the successful delivery of projects and face off regularly with Board level stakeholders. They work collaboratively across the Digital community to ensure the delivery of all elements of client engagements. They will typically work across a small number of projects at any given time bringing a flexible and adaptable approach.

Responsibilities include:

1. Lead or co-lead projects of all sizes, from inception through to completion, with an emphasis on reconciling client requirements and scope with available resources and technology.
2. Be responsible for leading and driving infrastructure assessments in the context of IT due diligences, post-acquisition IT assessments and IT strategies.
3. Identify cost reduction opportunities through infrastructure optimization (e.g. through datacentre consolidation, cloud adoption or other levers) and associated implementation costs and timelines.
4. Build effective infrastructure architecture capabilities within IT organisations covering reference architectures, cost management and governance.
5. Contribute to our Digital practice and thought leadership development initiatives, taking ownership for areas of interest that can further develop the practice.
6. Lead and/or participate in the development and presentation of proposals for business development activities.
