Job description

Lead insights. Develop people. Create impact.

We're looking for an experienced consulting and analytics leader to help shape the next stage of Flexiq's growth.

As Manager - Analytics & Advisory, you'll lead client engagements, develop our growing analytical capability and help organisations turn complex information into better decisions and measurable improvements.

This is a hands-on leadership role. You won't simply oversee projects from the sidelines. You'll structure ambiguous problems, challenge assumptions, facilitate senior discussions, guide analysis and turn evidence into practical recommendations. You'll also lead and develop a team of analysts as they build their careers at Flexiq.

What you'll do

• Build trusted relationships with senior clients and help them navigate difficult decisions.
• Lead, coach and develop a team of analysts.
• Turn financial, operational, project and procurement data into meaningful business insight.
• Identify opportunities to deepen existing client relationships and generate new work.
• Actively seek and support the development of new opportunities for Flexiq.

What you'll bring

• You'll ideally have 8+ years' relevant experience, including substantial client-facing consulting or advisory work.
• Proficiency in data visualisation and modelling tools such as Power BI, Tableau, or advanced Excel for complex analysis.
• Demonstrated experience in project management methodologies and leading business improvement frameworks within large-scale operations.
• Tertiary qualifications in business, commerce, economics, engineering, finance, data analytics or a related discipline.
• You'll combine strong analytical capability with excellent stakeholder engagement, commercial judgement and genuine people leadership.
• Experience across energy, utilities, infrastructure, government or other complex, asset-intensive environments will be highly regarded.
• Demonstrated experience with leading and developing a team of direct reports.

Why Flexiq?

We're a boutique management consultancy with flexible thinking at the heart of how we work. You'll get closer to clients, take greater ownership of your work and have the opportunity to help shape both your career and our growing business.

• Shape a growing capability rather than simply inherit an established team and process.
• Lead genuinely interesting work across analytics, advisory and business improvement.
• Stay hands-on while developing as a broader consulting and business leader.
• Work closely with Flexiq leadership, clients and the consulting team.
• Help develop great people and create an environment where they can build meaningful careers.
• Access full-time, part-time or other flexible arrangements by agreement.
