About You
· You have great general consulting experience but your real capability is in service operations:
o Analysing customer journeys to design and implement significant improvements, covering process, people and technology.
o Designing operating models that deliver an organisation’s strategic intent
o Leading ground-breaking change in operations areas
o Increasing customer service effectiveness
· You have a deep understanding of operations management within and across service sector organisations: Financial Services; Utilities; Higher Education; Managed Services; Telecoms or similar businesses. You are a natural relationship builder, enthusiastic, creative and credible with senior stakeholders – at ease with complex situations, bringing clarity where there is none, whilst not losing sight of the big picture. You also have confidence in your own capabilities: we prefer people who get on and do what’s right for the client straight away, rather than waiting for ‘permission’.
· You will have solid experience of leading consulting assignments and an approach that embraces the people as well as the technical aspects of change.
· Equally important are your broader business skills and experience, we will of course expect you to have excellent communication skills (both verbal and written – generally PowerPoint).
· Your experience is supported by your excellent academic background, certainly at first degree, ideally to Masters Level or equivalent.
