  • Ability to turn complex problems into clear, actionable plans
  • Experience leading customer, digital, operational or business transformation initiatives, ideally in banking or financial services
  • Strong track record of influencing senior stakeholders and shaping strategic recommendations, business cases and priorities

  • The ability to translate strategy into practical delivery outcomes and future customer experiences
  • A proven ability to adapt to quickly changing environments, learn at pace and encourage others to do the same
  • Experience developing and presenting business cases

We're particularly interested in candidates with experience in operating model design, business architecture, strategic workforce planning, workforce transformation or organisational design, although this is not essential.

You'll ideally have post-graduate experience gained within a leading management consultancy or a comparable in-house role, such as strategy, operating model, workforce planning or transformation within a large, complex organisation.
