• Enthusiastic generalist with a sweet spot in future‑oriented business strategies and technical knowledge
• Genuine enthusiasm for AI and demonstrable habit of using AI tools and agents in your own daily work – for research, structuring, drafting, or prototyping – and the fluency to speak about it credibly with clients, not just in theory

• Ability to lead, inspire and collaborate – with a drive to create impact for both clients and team members
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in German and English (French is a strong plus)
• Willingness to travel for client engagements, particularly in the UK and France

Job Responsibilities

• Advise senior leaders on strategic questions, including AI‑enabled business models, data and AI strategy, governance, operating models and transformation priorities
• Structure complex business challenges, conduct market and competitor analysis, and translate insights into clear, actionable recommendations
• Deliver cross‑functional transformation engagements from initial hypothesis and strategy development through to roadmap design, implementation and benefits realisation
• Apply proven consulting frameworks and delivery methodologies, including operating model design, agile transformation and data and AI roadmapping
• Lead project workstreams and, depending on seniority, coach junior colleagues to ensure high‑quality and collaborative delivery
• Contribute to business development and practice building by developing proposals, client offerings, thought leadership, benchmarks and reusable methodologies
• Travel internationally for client engagements, primarily across the UK and France
