• Team: You will serve as a trusted advisor to our clients. In Technology Strategy & Advisory, we articulate a compelling technology vision with industry expertise and context. You will work with C-level executives, digital marketers, and/or IT managers. With your approximately 80 direct colleagues, you are at the heart of the change, developing value cases and operating models with disruptive technologies in short to medium engagements. As a TS&A manager, you will be positioned at the crucial intersection of business, technology, and the industry. We devise creative new digital strategies, implement roadmaps, and guide digital transformations based on trends, insights, data, and our expertise. Our work always comes down to one thing: unlocking value and creating real, tangible impacts.

You will apply data-driven methods to analyze our clients’ strategic challenges, solve complex problems, and help them realize their business strategy through the right use of new technologies. Besides the work for our clients, you will also contribute to our practice and help the team grow and develop by, for example, participating in and organizing events, creating points of view, and sharing your knowledge.

• Technology: You will convey a deep understanding of technology platforms and architecture at the intersection of the client's industry to (re)define the client’s technology stack. You will realize value, advise, and execute medium to longer-term technology transformations such as multi-year Cloud journeys with a clear industry focus, leveraging cloud partners and platforms to drive innovation, flexibility, and agility across the enterprise and build new businesses.

• Data & AI: You will develop a data strategy, design modern data platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP, Databricks), design AI innovations, and operating models. You will understand the importance of data for business decision making, helping our clients to become truly data/insight driven by identifying measurable business value from data & analytics, designing and building the required capabilities, and driving the embedding of analytics and AI into their decisions, processes, and day-to-day operations. You will teach teams how to do data-driven storytelling through quantitative analysis and data visualization.

• FinOps: You will help clients maximize business value from cloud investments through FinOps practices, define cost-optimization strategies, governance models, and operating structures. You will support multi-year cloud journeys with a focus on efficiency, agility, and innovation. You will work with leading platforms such as Apptio Cloudability, Azure Cost Management, or AWS Cost Explorer, defining the FinOps operating model and embedding a value-driven culture across IT and Finance.

With all our roles, there is some in-person time for collaboration, learning, and building relationships with clients, peers, leaders, and communities. As an employer, we will be as flexible as possible to support your specific work/life needs.
