• Convert detailed analysis into concise, decision-ready recommendations and executive-level outputs.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with senior client stakeholders across supply chain, operations, and GBS teams.
• Contribute to business growth by supporting market development, proposition refinement, client campaigns, bids, proposals, and RFP/RFI responses.
• Create reusable delivery methods, tools, viewpoints, and assets that strengthen the practice’s offering in the market.
• Work closely with account and programme leadership to manage risks, address issues, and keep delivery on track.
• Support and coach junior colleagues, helping to build team capability and develop future leaders.
• Take part in wider practice-building activity, including internal campaigns, think-tanks, whitepapers, recruitment support, team events, and offer development.
• Contribute to learning and development activity for yourself and your teams, including training and certifications where appropriate.

What the role is looking for

• Experience supporting proposition development, account growth, and sales activity in a consulting or transformation setting.
• The ability to generate consulting revenue of around £1m by drawing on existing organisational relationships, wider company relationships, and your own network.
• Practical supply chain expertise in areas such as planning support, order management, logistics support, inventory, master data, or performance reporting.
• Strong understanding of service governance, process standardisation, KPI and SLA design, transition delivery, and continuous improvement.
• Experience coaching junior team members and helping build capability within both client and consulting teams.
• Comfort working in a collaborative, fast-paced environment and engaging with senior stakeholders.
