Ncounter is supporting a growing technology consultancy looking to build out its technical capability across Homeland Security and the wider UK public sector. This is a Principal-level opportunity for someone who combines strong consulting skills with a technical background and can operate comfortably between business stakeholders, consultants and engineering teams.
You could come from a Solution Architecture, Technical Business Analysis, Technical Delivery or broader Technology Consulting background. The important part is that you understand technology, but can also step beyond a single technical discipline to understand the wider problem, advise clients and help turn complex requirements into practical solutions.
What you'll be doing:- Acting as the bridge between consulting teams, senior stakeholders and technical specialists
- Supporting technical initiatives from discovery and solution definition through to delivery and transition
- Shaping solutions across complex digital and technology environments
- Translating business and operational requirements into clear technical direction
- Working across areas such as architecture, systems integration, digital transformation and emerging technology
- Leading client conversations and producing clear technical recommendations and documentation
- Supporting technical bids, solution development and new client opportunities
- Strong experience within technology or management consulting
- A background in Solution Architecture, Technical BA, Technical Delivery, Systems Engineering or a similar discipline
- Experience delivering complex technology programmes, ideally within Central Government, Homeland Security, Defence or National Security
- Strong stakeholder management skills, including the confidence to engage with senior technical and non-technical audiences
- Experience working across the wider delivery lifecycle rather than within one narrow technical specialism
- Current or previous UK Security Clearance would be highly beneficial
There will be increasing exposure to AI-focused programmes as this capability develops, although previous AI experience is not essential. This is an opportunity to join at an important stage of growth, helping shape a developing technical consulting capability while working on complex programmes with genuine public impact.
