Senior Consultant - Orphoz

Do you want to work on complex and pressing challenges—the kind that bring together curious, ambitious, and determined leaders who strive to become better every day? If this sounds like you, you’ve come to the right place.

YOUR IMPACT

You will work largely in the private sector and concentrate on managing business transformation projects.

In this role, you will support the implementation of business change programs to ensure that they are delivered fully and consistently across organizations. You will implement transformation projects across sectors, ensuring long-term project success.

You will manage workstreams largely independently with the support of a project manager.
