About The Team

The opportunity

This is a business-building leadership role at the intersection of strategy, technology and people. You will help shape the next chapter of our Workforce Transformation business, develop trusted relationships with senior clients, create distinctive propositions and lead complex transformation programmes from strategic ambition through implementation, adoption and sustained outcomes.

You will work across workforce redesign, skills, organisation and talent, culture and change, HR transformation and technology, people analytics and AI workforce effectiveness. Just as importantly, you will connect these disciplines to clients wider business, operating model and technology transformations.

We are building a consulting model that combines the strategic insight of an adviser, the execution discipline of an implementer and the accountability of a long-term transformation partner. If you want to build a market, lead exceptional people and take ownership of outcomes that matter, this role offers the platform to do so.

About Workforce Transformation

Our Workforce Transformation team helps clients reinvent how work gets done, how organisations operate and how people contribute to business value. We work with business leaders, boards, Chief Human Resources Officers and transformation executives to address questions such as:

How should work, roles and organisations change in an AI-enabled enterprise
What skills and capabilities will the business need to execute its strategy
How can organisations deliver the full value of technology and business transformation
How should the HR function evolve to support a changing enterprise
How can leaders create the culture, behaviours and employee experience required for transformation
How can workforce investments be connected more directly to productivity, performance and business outcomes

Our capabilities span workforce redesign, skills, organisation and talent, culture, leadership and change, HR transformation and technology, people analytics and AI workforce effectiveness.

About You

The leader we are looking for

You are an established consulting leader who combines strategic thinking with the determination to deliver. You are comfortable shaping a board-level transformation agenda and equally committed to working with delivery teams to turn that agenda into practical results.

You connect workforce topics to the wider issues that matter to senior executives, including growth, productivity, customer outcomes, cost, risk, technology investment and organisational performance. You are intellectually curious about how AI and emerging technology are changing work and organisations, and you understand that sustainable value requires changes to work, roles, skills, leadership, governance, culture and the operating model.

You are motivated by building something larger than an individual portfolio. You share relationships and ideas, bring the best of the firm to clients and invest actively in the success of colleagues.

Your Experience

A strong track record in consulting, workforce transformation, organisation transformation, HR transformation, change or a closely related field.
Experience originating, shaping and converting significant consulting opportunities.
Credibility and confidence working with C-suite executives, boards, Chief Human Resources Officers and senior transformation leaders.
Experience leading complex, multidisciplinary transformation programmes from strategy through execution and adoption.
The ability to connect workforce and organisational decisions to measurable business outcomes.
Strong knowledge across several relevant capabilities, such as workforce redesign, skills, HR transformation and technology, organisation design, talent, culture, leadership, change management or people analytics.
A clear perspective on how AI, data and technology are changing work, the workforce and the HR function.
Experience mobilising and leading diverse teams across capabilities, organisations or geographies.
Strong commercial judgement, including experience managing engagement economics, delivery risk, quality and profitability.
Experience developing consulting propositions, market perspectives, methodologies or intellectual property.
A demonstrable commitment to coaching others and building high-performing teams.
Excellent written, verbal and executive-level communication skills.

You will typically have 12 to 15 or more years of relevant experience, although the scale, progression and impact of your experience will be more important than tenure alone.

You are recognised by clients as a trusted adviser on their most important workforce and transformation challenges.
You create senior client conversations that lead to significant and sustainable transformation opportunities.
You lead engagements that deliver high-quality outcomes and generate lasting client relationships.
You strengthen PwC's position in AI-enabled work redesign, skills transformation, HR transformation, organisation and change.
You build propositions and intellectual property that can be applied effectively across clients and markets.
