Director of Strategy & Transformation

We’re on a mission to close the world’s tech skills gap. 

We help organisations navigate the future of technology, combining human expertise, emerging tech and AI to deliver better outcomes, faster.

Since 2014, we’ve worked side-by-side with clients to solve complex challenges, build high-performing teams, and create lasting capability. As technology continues to evolve, we believe the most successful organisations will be those that combine the best of both: human ingenuity AND intelligent technology.

That belief is embedded in everything we do. We call it the genius of the AND: deep expertise AND practical delivery, innovation AND responsibility, ambitious work AND sustainable careers.

Through our Guide, Build and Equip approach, we help organisations embrace change, deliver meaningful impact, and develop the skills they need to thrive in an increasingly agentic world.

About you:

• You care deeply about producing high-quality work that delivers real value
• You’re comfortable navigating ambiguity and solving complex problems collaboratively
• You bring strong expertise in your craft, alongside a willingness to keep learning
• You communicate clearly and build trust quickly with clients and teammates
• You’re pragmatic, adaptable and outcome-focused
• You enjoy sharing knowledge and helping others grow
• You value low-ego collaboration and enjoy working as part of multidisciplinary teams

What you'll bring to the table:

As a Director of Strategy, you will work with clients to design and deliver the meaningful change needed to successfully accelerate their digital transformation and grow the capability of their teams and people. As a result, you will need to be able to:

• Manage a client engagement to deliver all aspects required through discussions with clients (not just following a specified statement of work)
• Act as a trusted advisor to C-suite and Director-level stakeholders, influencing their digital strategy, organisational design, change or transformation plans to improve delivery and strategic execution.
• Assess a client’s current state and work with them to envision their future in order to deliver on their digital ambitions and plot a path towards digital greatness
• Design new tech-led ways of working, including how digital, data, AI operates alongside other business functions, and how those other functions can themselves become more technology-led
• Develop new and innovative thinking - what’s next?
• Lead the development of compelling commercial / business cases to help our clients make the required changes
• Transition organisations to new technology-led  ways of working, through effective planning, communications and change management
• Work with colleagues to engage senior executives, both inside and outside of IT / Technology / Digital, to help their understanding of digital and agile ways of working and the need for change
• Get ‘hands on’ with the work and produce the required outputs and outcomes
• Help grow the regional Club as part of the Leadership team via internal initiatives such as proposition development, thought leadership and team engagement
• Applying a commercial mindset throughout an engagement and supporting account development plans. Responsible for identifying further opportunities for AND Digital to support our clients, in order for them to be successful.

To do that, it’s essential you bring the following:

• Formal consulting, professional services, or digital transformation experience, and involvement in effectively delivering change within a range of organisations
• Good understanding of effective modern, technology-led organisations and what makes them different. Able to affect impactful change
• Knowledge and strong appreciation of digital delivery - particularly Strategy, Product, Technology, Delivery and People implications, backed up with your own insights and points of view.
• Ability to influence stakeholders with a recommended digital transformation approach
• Be comfortable in moving between various client assignments throughout your career
• Passion for delivering the required change for our clients in often complex, ambiguous circumstances
• Demonstrable experience of deploying AI into your ways of working 
• Demonstrated ability in consulting clients in the adoption of AI into their business and or operations / workflows

It’s helpful if you also have:

• A breadth and depth of consulting expertise, including business development, gained at a recognised Consulting firm
• Some experience in a role developing digital or product strategy and delivering commercial value
• Enthusiasm to learn and develop your skills as a digital consultant and to share your expertise with those around you.
• Outstanding written and oral communication, and interpersonal skills
• Relationship building skills – the ability to develop and maintain peer relationships with clients.
• Ability to spot opportunities to expand existing client relationships at a Club level
• The flexibility to contribute to different types of engagement depending on the client problem we are helping with.

Why join AND Digital?

We’re building a culture where talented people can do meaningful work, continue growing, AND enjoy the journey along the way.

Our model is designed to build belonging and connection: we’re organised into regional ‘Clubs’ of no more than 80 people, so you (and our clients) get the benefits of that small company feel while also being connected to a larger whole.

Our Practice Areas act as a ‘second home’ for our ANDis - a place where you can innovate and learn with like-minded experts who care deeply about their craft, support each other generously, and believe the best ideas come from collaboration, not hierarchy.

Our culture is rooted in our values of Wonder, Share and Delight, and shows up through five traits that we celebrate and nurture in all our ANDis: we value curiosity, ambition and a growth-mindset. We are deeply client-centric. Most important of all we are human - we create an inclusive environment where people feel trusted, supported and able to be themselves.

By joining AND, we’ll provide:

• 25 days bookable holiday + flexible Bank Holidays 
• Pension: 6% of salary paid by AND Digital with a further 2% paid by you (can be increased by choice).
• Aviva healthcare cover (including pre-existing condition cover) for you.
• Flexibenefit: £1000 assigned to you via our benefits portal to select or upgrade the benefits that suit you the most. Any unused allowance from the £1000 can be taken as cash. 
• Life Assurance.
• Income Protection.
• Eye test + first pair of glasses.
• Parental Benefits: Generous Enhanced Maternity and Enhanced Partner (Paternity) Leave.
