Job description

About Elixirr

Elixirr International plc is a global consulting firm with a bold ambition: to become the best consulting firm in the world.

Founded in 2009 to challenge a declining industry standard, we’ve grown from a single vision into a powerhouse of entrepreneurial talent, delivering boardroom strategy through to execution.

After IPO-ing on AIM in July 2020, Elixirr moved to the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange in July 2025. In that time, our market cap has grown from £98 million to over £350 million – a testament to our differentiated approach and relentless pursuit of excellence.

With a presence across the UK, US, EU, and South Africa, and a client base spanning industries and geographies, we’ve welcomed seven boutique firms into the Group. This has broadened our capabilities across creative, digital marketing, data and AI, procurement, transformation, and more.

Our vision of becoming a services unicorn is firmly within reach – and this is just the beginning. We’re looking for exceptional talent to join us on this exciting growth journey and shape the future of consulting.

Location

You can be based in London or New York. Our headquarters are in Central London. Our east coast hub is based in New York City. We’re proud of the work we’ve done here to help clients disrupt their industries.

Job Summary

We’re building the best consulting firm in the world. So, we’re looking for outstanding client‑facing consulting Managers with 4‑6 years’ experience to join our global team.

Responsibilities

• Manage client‑facing cyber security consulting engagements, delivering strategic advice across cyber risk, resilience, governance, and operating models
• Develop and maintain strong client relationships with senior stakeholders (CISO, CIO, CRO, etc.)
• Translate complex cyber threats and issues into clear business language and actionable recommendations
• Shape and contribute to Elixirr’s growing cyber proposition – including thought leadership, tools, and methodologies
• Support business development, including identifying opportunities, drafting proposals, and pitching solutions
• Contribute to internal capability building, including team development and knowledge sharing
• Comfortable working as a generalist delivering projects across other capabilities when necessary

Requirements

• Hold a High Bar for the quality of your output. You are innovative, empathetic, a strong communicator with a great work ethic.
• You will support more senior members of the team from day one, working independently and as an integral part of a team providing guidance and insight.
• You will provide leadership to newer team members, are willing to listen – open to new suggestions and ideas – making them feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and opinions and clearly communicating and managing expectations.
• You hold and will develop great stakeholder‑management skills, building your reputation, client rapport and relationships. Professional and calm you will translate complex client problems into actionable plans.
• Strong track record of delivering strategic cyber engagements for clients, such as:
• Cyber strategy & maturity assessments

• Regulatory readiness (e.g. DORA, NIS2, GDPR)
• Cyber risk management & governance
• Board‑level cyber advisory
• Relevant certifications (e.g. CISSP, CISM, CRISC, ISO 27001) are a plus but not essential
• Excellent strategic and general consulting experience
