Transformation Lead – Leaving Consulting for In-House

Location: London

SK0233

Ready to stop advising and start owning the outcome?

We're working with a global, high-growth business serving financial services and other heavily regulated clients. They're hiring a Transformation Lead in London.

This role is designed for someone coming out of a strategy, operations or transformation consultancy who wants to move in-house. You'll do the work you already do well: diagnosing problems, building business cases, designing operating models and producing board-ready materials. The difference is that you'll stay to deliver it and see the results through.

What you'll do

• Turn business strategy and value-creation priorities into clear transformation programmes, roadmaps and success measures
• Build business cases covering baselines, cost-benefit analysis, investment requirements and scenarios
• Find and quantify opportunities in revenue growth, cost reduction and productivity
• Design target operating models across organisation, processes, governance, technology and ways of working
• Support programme governance and executive steering groups, and challenge plans, risks and decisions where needed
• Work with Finance and business owners to track benefits and make sure value is actually delivered
• Produce clear, visually strong PowerPoint for executive committees, boards and investors
• Run senior workshops and build trusted relationships with executives and functional heads
• Get hands-on with delivery of key initiatives when it's needed

What we're looking for

• A background in strategy, operations or transformation consulting. Management consultancy, Big 4 strategy or FS-specialist firms would all be ideal
• Experience shaping and delivering complex, cross-functional transformation in financial services, including its commercial drivers and regulatory considerations
• Strong commercial skills, with a track record of building business cases and quantifying value
• Advanced Excel and analytical modelling, plus board-quality PowerPoint
• Confidence in front of senior executives and comfort challenging established thinking
• A structured, hypothesis-led approach, with the ability to move between strategy and practical implementation

Nice to have

• Exposure to private equity, value creation or investor-led environments
• Experience presenting to boards or investment committees

Why this role

• The natural next step after consulting: real ownership, rather than handing over the deck and rolling off
• Close exposure to executive leadership and steering groups from day one
• A global business with ambitious growth plans
