In this role, you will be empowered to create and develop consultancy services, products and solutions, win and deliver short-term special projects and champion a more socially and environmentally responsible way of doing business.
With a commitment to quality, customer focused services, you will have:
- Strong influencing and persuasion skills, particularly in relation to prospecting, networking, pitching, contracting and consulting.
- A successful track record as a senior manager, including specific experience of project management and the delivery of consultancy services.
- Evidence of using personal influence to improve and innovate project delivery and consultancy service performance, particularly in upskilling and coaching colleagues.
- Evidence of tendering for government-sponsored projects and programmes which are commissioned at national, devolved, regional and/or local level.
