A Consulting Director role with a well-established management consultancy scaling its technology and digital advisory practice through 2026. This is a sales-led consulting position: you will carry a revenue target, open doors, shape solutions and stay close to delivery.

About our client

Our client is a well-established, highly regarded management consultancy with a strong technology and digital advisory practice, working across finance, transport, public services, health and life sciences, and consumer and manufacturing. They offer a genuine dual remit for senior hires: winning advisory work and shaping its delivery, rather than boxing people into one or the other. They are scaling their experienced-hires team at pace, bringing in several leaders at this level through 2026, supported by a fast, well-run assessment process.

What you'll be doing as a Consulting Director

• Winning new business, building pipeline and closing advisory engagements against a personal revenue target.
• Shaping credible, sellable solutions, drawing on your engineering or solution architecture background.
• Leading client relationships from first conversation through to delivery, as a trusted senior advisor.
• Selling across sectors, anchored in your dominant go-to-market with flexibility into adjacent industries.
• Staying close to delivery on large, complex engagements alongside your commercial remit.
• Contributing to practice growth, helping build propositions and capability across the team.

What we're looking for from the Consulting Director

• A track record of driving new business revenue, whether net new or through expanded engagements, projects or programmes, ideally against a current or recent commercial target.
• A technical background in software engineering, application development or solution architecture.
• Consulting experience selling technology advisory or transformation services, not pure delivery.
• Commercial credibility to lead a sales conversation, shape a deal and win the work.
• Clarity on your dominant go-to-market and the services you sell, with the flexibility to span sectors.
• Experience running large, complex deliveries alongside a commercial remit.

Qualifications

• Degree or equivalent professional experience.
• Relevant certifications an advantage, for example TOGAF, AWS, Azure or other cloud and architecture credentials.

Why apply?

• A genuine dual remit. Win and shape advisory work, rather than being boxed into delivery or sales alone.
• Strong package. Base to £160,000, plus performance-related bonus, strong pension and private healthcare.
• Scale and momentum. Multiple hires planned, with a clear route to grow inside a recognised consulting brand.
• A fast, supported process. An efficient interview process, including coaching before final stage.
