Managing Consultant
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

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

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.
