  Summary of the Role and Purpose
  
  We help financial services organisations - Banks, Insurance companies, FMIs, Wealth and Asset managers, and Fintechs - to change and adapt to the environment in which they operate. Changes may be driven by decisions to digitise, to streamline, to pivot, to respond to new regulation or to harness the benefits of analytics or new technology. Or they may be driven by acquisition or disposal. Whatever the reason, our clients are continually re-designing parts of the organisation, and that's where we come in.
  
  Description of the role
  
  We are looking for experienced consultants who can lead Organisation Design workstreams on complex, business critical programmes. You will be expected to

An appreciation of organisational design in an agile context is desirable. Experience of working with Org Vue would also be beneficial. A strong appreciation of different approaches to manage behavioural change. Experience of the core techniques of leadership alignment, case for change, stakeholder identification and management, sequencing for the change programme, communication and engagement, impact assessment, and planning people transition. In the area of technology implementation, we would expect experience of user adoption approaches including training and awareness. The strongest candidates will have capability across both Change and OD, but we are also interested in candidates who are deep specialists in OD. We are looking for candidates who understand the financial services environment and have undertaken consulting projects in one or more of the sub-sectors mentioned above. As this role is a Senior Manager role, and the consultant would be expected to lead and manage other consultants, we expect that candidates will have experience in consulting, ideally with a recognised professional services firm, or global consultancy. In-house consulting experience is also valued. Candidates will need to have the personal skills to influence, communicate with and work with senior clients, often at C-Suite or just below. They will need to have strong writing skills, be good at PowerPoint, confident with excel, and comfortable working face to face and through Teams. We value a collaborative mindset. Everyone at KPMG is talented and ambitious, but we are a close-knit team that wins together, and we value people who will share knowledge and support colleagues. Above all, we are looking for people with a strong sense of curiosity - we want people who are interested in their clients, care about their business, are motivated to research and understand them, and are prepared to work hard to make them a success.

  Job description Role PurposeCapital projects consistently underperform... Read More

  Job description
  
  Role Purpose
  
  Capital projects consistently underperform in terms of budget, schedule, and value. Stakeholders often lack confidence over the performance of their projects and programmes, and the transition to business-as-usual operation often fails to take advantage of the data and insight generated during the project implementation phase. Data can enable and drive improvement as it has in many facets of our lives, with automation, digitalisation and AI now becoming the norm.
  
  It has quickly become a cheap commodity, easily created, and accessed. However, capturing good quality, meaningful data to drive a completive edge, enable intelligence-led decision-making, helping to track and improve performance is today's challenge for many organisations. How do stakeholders obtain insights when served with an overwhelming volume of disorganised, poorly considered, badly constructed data?
  
  Our Major Projects Advisory (MPA) team specialises in providing clarity to Boards, Executives and SRO's and senior leaders across major public and private sector organisations, on the delivery of their complex projects and programmes. We work on some of the UK's most strategically important programmes, and across all sectors including Utilities, Power, Energy, Transport, Natural Resources, Oil & Gas, Defence, Health and Education.
