What will your typical day look like

As a Manager within our Strategy and Business Design team you will work with a team of great Consultants, coached by Directors and Partners, working on some of our clients’ and country’s most complex and pressing issues.

You will be working with senior client stakeholders to understand system and organisational challenges, translate strategic intent into practical delivery and support decision-making in complex, and at times, regulated environments. Working collaboratively is a core value practiced every day.

You will be responsible for the day-to-day leadership of interesting engagements and providing our clients with the insights and solutions they need to improve performance, strengthen resilience and create sustainable outcomes. You will help clients take advantage of the many opportunities to be digitally enabled and impactful for New Zealand and on the world stage.

As well as taking responsibility for projects and guiding more junior team members on the day-to-day delivery of outcomes for clients, you will also contribute by developing client relationships, creating and sharing eminence, identifying opportunities and supporting clients to progress additional priorities and initiatives.

We are a fun, caring and inclusive team who value people’s individual aspirations and connection to our purpose - to make an impact that matters.
