We’re supporting a major technology advisory practice experiencing significant growth, with multiple new positions available across their IT Strategy & Sourcing team. If you enjoy helping organisations modernise their technology landscape, reshape their operating models, and make smarter decisions about cloud, software, cyber, and digital platforms, this is the place to do it.

What You’ll Be Doing

This team partners with clients to understand where their technology, processes, and operating models are falling behind and then helps them shape what the future should look like. Your work will span:

• Reviewing client IT functions, identifying pain points, and recommending improvements
• Assessing current systems, tooling, and digital services to determine what needs to be fixed, replaced, or transformed
• Advising businesses who know what they want to change, but not how — helping them choose the right technologies, vendors, and architectures to support long-term growth
• Working across cloud, SaaS, workplace technology, cyber, application services, and digital platforms (not physical/telecoms/CCTV)
• Designing technology sourcing strategies and helping clients build fit‑for‑purpose digital ecosystems
• Contributing to business cases, commercial models, and transformation plans
• Engaging with senior stakeholders and delivering real-impact consulting work

It’s a hands‑on consulting environment where you’ll blend strategy, technology insight, delivery knowledge, and commercial thinking.

Who Suits This Team?

They’re looking for people with experience in:

• IT strategy, technology advisory, or digital transformation
• Cloud, digital workplace, software, SaaS, and modern IT service models
• Consulting backgrounds from major consultancies or recognised service providers are strongly welcomed (e.g. broad consulting houses, systems integrators, technology advisory organisations)

Requirements

• Able to engage senior stakeholders and communicate technical and commercial ideas clearly
• Comfortable working in a client-facing environment, often on-site
• Broad understanding of cloud, digital workplace, cyber, and software landscapes

Why This Team?

You’ll join a practice that sits at the intersection of strategy, technology, and delivery — advising major organisations on how to build technology that truly works for their business. The work is varied, forward-looking, and impactful.
