Managing Consultant

Job description

Managing Consultant – Public Sector, Defence & Financial Services

Multiple UK Locations | Hybrid

Up to £150,000 Base + 17.5% Bonus + Car Allowance

We’re partnering with a leading consulting organisation undergoing significant growth across its Technology Consulting practice and are looking to hire experienced Managing Consultants across several strategic practice areas.

This is a senior leadership position sitting just below Partner level — equivalent to Director level in many consultancies — combining both business development and client delivery leadership.

The Opportunity

These roles are ideal for commercially minded technology leaders who have built strong reputations within either:

• Public Sector
• Defence
• Financial Services

Successful candidates will bring deep domain expertise, strong client networks, and a proven ability to drive revenue while leading complex transformation programmes.

This is not a generalist consulting role. We are specifically looking for specialists who are recognised within their sector and can lead from the front in both sales and delivery.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Leading strategic client engagements across enterprise technology transformation
• Owning and growing senior stakeholder relationships
• Driving new business development and contributing directly to sales targets
• Identifying and converting consulting opportunities within existing and new accounts
• Leading delivery teams across large-scale transformation programmes
• Acting as a trusted advisor to C-level and senior client stakeholders
• Helping shape go-to-market propositions across key industry verticals

This is a genuine 50/50 split between sales and delivery, so candidates must be comfortable operating commercially while maintaining delivery credibility.

Backgrounds We’re Interested In

We’re open to individuals coming from:

• Software Engineering leadership
• Technical Architecture
• Engineering Management
• DevOps / Platform Engineering leadership

However, all candidates must have:

• A strong software engineering or platform technology foundation
• Experience operating within consulting or client-facing environments
• Demonstrable business development capability
• Experience working toward or owning revenue/sales targets

Ideal Experience

Public Sector / Defence

• Central Government
• Defence programmes
• Secure transformation environments
• Digital and cloud modernisation
• Government frameworks and procurement understanding

Financial Services

• Banking
• Insurance
• Capital Markets
• Large-scale regulated environments
• Cloud, platform, and engineering transformation

What’s on Offer

• Base salary up to £150,000
• 17.5% annual bonus
• Car allowance
• Clear progression path toward Partner
• Opportunity to shape and lead strategic growth areas
• Access to major enterprise transformation programmes across the UK

If you’re a commercially driven technology leader with deep sector expertise and a strong consulting background, we’d love to hear from you.
