Your role:

• Define the best approach to address complex business challenges - such as digital transformation, operational improvement, organisational change and time-to-market acceleration - and translate it into a clear methodology and measurable business impact.
• Own the consulting content of assignments: structure the problem, develop hypotheses, guide the analysis and ensure that recommendations are practical, evidence-based and tailored to the client.
• Independently manage consulting engagements, including the work plan, activities, budget, risks and deliverables, ensuring excellent quality and timely execution.
• Lead and develop a team of business consultants, promoting knowledge sharing, constructive challenge and strong motivation.
• Work closely with technical experts in areas such as AI, RPA and advanced data analytics, bringing business and technology perspectives together in an integrated client solution.

• Build trusted, long-­term client relationships and identify new needs for consulting support.
• Contribute actively to business development by shaping opportunities, developing consulting approaches and proposals, and helping to grow relevant DS&A service offerings.

• You bring local market experience in one or more of the following sectors: financial services, insurance, industry, telecommunications, energy or life sciences. Experience in insurance and product‑oriented businesses is particularly relevant to our current growth priorities.
• You understand the core processes, business models, regulatory context and KPIs of your sector, and you are business‑minded and results‑oriented.
• You combine commercial awareness with credible consulting delivery experience. You enjoy contributing to proposals and market growth while remaining accountable for the substance and quality of delivery.
• You have effective team‑management skills and know how to promote knowledge sharing, coach consultants and sustain motivation.
