Job description

We're on a mission to close the world's tech skills gap.

We help organisations navigate the future of technology, combining human expertise, emerging tech and AI to deliver better outcomes, faster. Since 2014, we've worked side-by-side with clients to solve complex challenges, build high-performing teams, and create lasting capability. As technology continues to evolve, we believe the most successful organisations will be those that combine the best of both: human ingenuity AND intelligent technology.

That belief is embedded in everything we do. We call it the genius of the AND: deep expertise AND practical delivery, innovation AND responsibility, ambitious work AND sustainable careers.Through our Guide, Build and Equip approach, we help organisations embrace change, deliver meaningful impact, and develop the skills they need to thrive in an increasingly agentic world.

About you:

• You care deeply about producing high-quality work that delivers real value.
• You're comfortable navigating ambiguity and solving complex problems collaboratively.
• You bring strong expertise in your craft, alongside a willingness to keep learning.
• You communicate clearly and build trust quickly with clients and teammates.
• You're pragmatic, adaptable and outcome-focused.
• You enjoy sharing knowledge and helping others grow.
• You value low-ego collaboration and enjoy working as part of multidisciplinary teams.

As a result, you will need to be able to:

• Manage a client engagement to deliver all aspects required through discussions with clients (not just following a specified statement of work).
• Act as a trusted advisor to C-suite and Director-level stakeholders, influencing their AI strategy, organisational design, change or transformation plans to improve delivery and strategic execution.
• Assess a client's current state and work with them to envision their future in order to deliver on their AI ambitions and plot a path towards an AI-enabled future.
• Design new ways of working, including how digital, data, AI operates alongside other business functions, and how those other functions can themselves become more technology-led.
• Develop new and innovative thinking, creating programmes of work and consulting engagements that drive out business innovation and opportunities.
• Lead the compilation of compelling commercial / business cases to help our clients understand the value AND and the proposed changes can bring to the business.
• Transition organisations to new technology-led ways of working, through effective planning, communications and change management.

• Work with AND colleagues to engage senior executives, both inside and outside of IT / Technology / Digital, to help their understanding of AI and the need for change.
• Get 'hands on' with the work and produce the required outputs and outcomes.
• Help grow the regional 'Club' as part of the Leadership team via internal initiatives such as proposition development, thought leadership and team engagement.
• Apply a commercial mindset throughout engagements and support account development plans with Client Partners.
• Be responsible for identifying further opportunities for AND Digital to support our clients, in order for them to be successful.
• Contribute to the revenue and financial success of the regional 'Club' through successful client engagements and the onboarding of new business and opportunities.

To do that, it's essential you bring the following:

• Formal consulting, professional services, or digital transformation experience, and involvement in effectively delivering change within a range of organisations.
• Good understanding of effective modern, technology-led organisations and what makes them different. Able to affect impactful change.
• Knowledge and strong appreciation of digital delivery - particularly Strategy, Product, AI, Technology, Delivery and People implications, backed up with your own insights and points of view.
• Ability to influence stakeholders with a recommended digital and AI -based transformation approach.
• Be comfortable in moving between various client assignments.
• Passion for delivering the required change for our clients in often complex, ambiguous circumstances.
• Demonstrable experience of deploying AI into your ways of working

• Demonstrated ability in consulting clients and/or implementing internal change within an organisation in the adoption of AI into the operations / workflows within the business.

It's helpful if you also have:

• A breadth and depth of consulting expertise, including business development, gained at a recognised consulting firm and and/or agency-based environment. I.e. experience of responding to RFPs, creating sales-based presentations and presenting to senior client teams.
• Experience in a role developing digital or product strategy and delivering commercial value.
• Enthusiasm to learn and develop your skills as a technology consultant and to share your expertise with those around you.
• Outstanding written and oral communication, and interpersonal skills.
• Relationship building skills, the ability to develop and maintain peer relationships with clients.
• Ability to spot opportunities to expand existing client relationships at a Club level.
• The flexibility to contribute to different types of engagement depending on the client problem we are helping with.

Our culture is rooted in our values of Wonder, Share and Delight, and shows up through five traits that we celebrate and nurture in all our ANDis: we value curiosity, ambition and a growth-mindset. We are deeply client-centric. Most important of all we are human - we create an inclusive environment where people feel trusted, supported and able to be themselves.

By joining AND, we'll provide:

• 25 days bookable holiday + flexible Bank Holidays
• Pension: 6% of salary paid by AND Digital with a further 2% paid by you (can be increased by choice).
• Aviva healthcare cover (including pre-existing condition cover) for you.
• Flexibenefit: £1000 assigned to you via our benefits portal to select or upgrade the benefits that suit you the most. Any unused allowance from the £1000 can be taken as cash.
• Life Assurance.
• Income Protection.
• Eye test + first pair of glasses.
• Parental Benefits: Generous Enhanced Maternity and Enhanced Partner (Paternity) Leave.
