You will be part of client-facing teams delivering high-impact commercial, sourcing, and supplier initiatives, supporting the development of insights, contributing to solution design, and playing an active role in delivering outcomes, not just recommendations.

  • Communicate findings clearly and professionally with team members and senior client stakeholders.
  • Lead workshops, working sessions, and day-to-day client interactions.

Work in a global, flexible model

  • Operate in a hybrid environment, balancing client, home, and office-based work.
  • Travel as required to support client delivery and team collaboration.

What you bring

Experience and skills

  • Strong experience in consulting, procurement, supply chain, or a related analytical role.
  • Experience supporting project delivery and managing stakeholder engagement across workstream.
