Senior Manager – Strategy & Transformation Hybrid: 3 days London Office £89,000 - £105,000 + Bonus + 9-Day Fortnight

Our client is a growing specialist management consultancy that partners with organisations across policing, justice and the wider public sector to solve complex strategic and transformation challenges.

• Oversee the development of operating models, transformation strategies and implementation roadmaps.
• Support business development through proposal development, client conversations and proposition development.
• Contribute to the continued growth of the consultancy by helping develop people, capability and ways of working.

• Significant experience within management consulting, strategy or transformation consulting.
• A strong track record of leading complex transformation programmes from strategy through to implementation.
