As BakerHicks continues to expand and provide exemplary services to clients across project, programme, and portfolio management, a dedicated Business Consultancy team has been established.

This team will provide high end business advisory services across all BakerHicks Business Sectors, Business Units and Geographies that will:

• Be profitable and sustainable
• Grow on a yearly basis
• Act as an enabler to position the design, engineering and delivery disciplines for project commissions

Reporting into the Managing Consultant, as Consultant - Delivery & Advisory, you will support both delivery oversight and P3M advisory services, assisting with project governance, controls, performance reporting, and best practice implementation.
You will assist in managing project governance, risk management, and quality controls across client projects and portfolios, support P3M3 maturity assessments, provide advice on P3M best practices (e.g., Prince2, MSP, P3O, ITIL, Agile), and assist with continuous improvement initiatives.

You will also contribute to project controls and reporting, tracking performance and providing insights to senior stakeholders and help conduct assurance reviews, independent assessments, and assist in preparing client deliverables, reports, and proposals.

Key Objectives

• You will play a key role in supporting both the Delivery Support and P3M Advisory teams in delivering high-quality consultancy services to clients.
• You will assist with project, programme, and portfolio management activities, focusing on governance, controls, and performance monitoring, while also supporting P3M maturity assessments, advisory on best practices, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• This dual role offers exposure to a wide range of methodologies and project management functions, allowing you to develop expertise in both areas.

Why this role?

This role offers a unique opportunity to gain broad exposure to both project delivery and P3M advisory services. By supporting a variety of high-profile client projects, the role will help you develop expertise in management consulting in areas including controls, performance, and the application of best practice methodologies like APM, MSP, P3O and Agile.

• Working closely with senior consultants and clients, you will build valuable skills in managing complex projects, conducting consultancy assignments, and driving continuous improvement.
• This position provides an ideal environment for professional growth, offering hands-on experience in diverse aspects of delivering assignments, while also fostering development in client management and business advisory functions.
• You will have the opportunity to develop a broad skill set, working in two key areas of consultancy. You will gain experience in project controls, governance, P3M best practices, and continuous improvement, while working closely with senior consultants and clients.
• This is an excellent opportunity to learn from experts in both delivery support and P3M advisory, helping to shape the success of client projects and contributing to the growth of the consultancy.

• A degree in Business, Project Management, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• Experience of management frameworks (e.g., Prince2, MSP, P3O)

Experience
