Managing Technology Consultant – Defence / Public Sector

We’re working with a small, high-calibre consultancy supporting senior leaders across UK defence on complex technology and transformation challenges.

They’re looking for someone with a strong consulting background who can get stuck in quickly and operate with a high degree of independence. This isn’t a role where you sit above the work – you’ll be trusted to deliver end-to-end, from shaping thinking through to producing high-quality outputs.

The role

You’ll work closely with senior stakeholders across government and defence, helping them make sense of complex technology decisions and drive transformation forward.

Day to day, you’ll:

• Shape technology strategies, digital transformation, including future states, roadmaps, operating models, governance, investment priorities.
• Produce high-quality client deliverables, including slide decks, reports and briefings
• Take ownership of meeting outputs, notes and follow-ups, ensuring everything is clear and delivered on time
• Be a trusted advisor to stakeholders
• Turn complex ideas into structured, practical recommendations

What they’re looking for

• A strong background in management consulting
• experience leading technology, digital transformation or strategic advisory engagements.
• Someone comfortable working independently and taking ownership of their work
• Willingness to get into the detail, including slides, admin and coordination work
• Expert level experience across technology, digital transformation, AI, data or cloud
• Confident communicator who can engage senior stakeholders
• Candidates must have an active SC clearance or be eligible and comfortable to obtain one

The type of person who will do well here is someone who is proactive, organised, and happy balancing strategic thinking with hands-on delivery.
