• Real-time and streaming data solutions - enabling immediate insights and actions through event-driven architectures and continuous data processing
• Machine learning and artificial intelligence - embedding intelligence into processes and systems to drive automated decision-making and innovation
• Data engineering best practices - implementing DataOps methodologies and engineering excellence to ensure reliable, high-quality data delivery
• Data strategy and architecture - developing comprehensive approaches that align data initiatives with business objectives and designing scalable, future-proof data foundations
• Specialised data technologies - leveraging purpose-built data storage and processing solutions to address unique business challenges and use cases

What You’ll Do

• Solve clients’ most critical and complex problems by designing and delivering cloud-based modern data architectures and advanced analytics solutions.
• Build successful client outcomes by developing innovative data platforms and robust data models that enable organisations to leverage and organise their enterprise data for meaningful insights.
• Act as a senior subject matter expert in data & analytics, engaging directly with stakeholders and influencing senior executives through clear, customer-focused solution development.
• Support the planning, delivery, and execution of projects across multiple industries—translating complex data challenges into actionable insights and measurable business value.
• Collaborate with cross-functional practice areas to create go-to-market assets, marketing materials, reusable frameworks, and thought leadership tied to emerging trends and real client use cases.
• Drive knowledge sharing across teams and markets to bring innovative approaches and best practices to local client engagements.
• Mentor and coach consultants across all levels, supporting their growth in analysis, modelling, data visualisation, and stakeholder engagement.
• Work within a fun, inclusive, and collaborative team culture where you can be yourself and enjoy both work and life.

What You’ll Bring

• Strong experience as a Senior Consultant or equivalent in a consulting or client-facing environment.
• Proven ability to analyse complex business problems and translate them into structured data requirements, solution designs, and delivery roadmaps.
• Hands-on capability in data modelling, data analysis, and visualisation (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, Looker).
• Experience working with cloud-based data platforms and an understanding of modern data architectures that support advanced analytics.
• Stakeholder engagement and facilitation
• Requirements gathering and technical business analysis
• Presenting insights to senior business and technology leaders
• Ability to shape and deliver data & analytics solutions that drive business value and influence executive decision-making.
• A collaborative mindset with a passion for working across disciplines to co-create innovative client solutions.
