Salary | £60k-£80k + bonus)

Location | London (Hybrid - 2 days a week at the office)

𝗦𝗣𝗢𝗡𝗦𝗢𝗥𝗦𝗛𝗜𝗣 𝗢𝗣𝗣𝗢𝗥𝗧𝗨𝗡𝗜𝗧𝗬

I'm eager to chat with folks who have recently moved from the US 🇺🇸 to the UK 🇬🇧 and have experience working in the US on strategy and insight projects for big, tech, legacy brands.

I'm especially interested in someone who has worked at a (brand) growth and transformation strategy consultancy, helping companies to implement and accelerate clients’ growth goals quickly.

Ideally, you should have hands-on experience with QUALITATIVE methodologies (e.g., written detailed, multiple-page discussion guides, conducted IDIs, workshops, etc.) and be able to translate these into strategic frameworks for GTM, marketing, and customer experience strategies.

The opportunity here is truly VAST (!), with immense rewards awaiting those who seize it.

The company is a rapidly accelerating, self-funded startup experiencing remarkable annual growth of over 30% over the past 5 years. 🚀 Majority of clients are in the US 🇺🇸.

The founders are highly impressive individuals driving this venture's meteoric rise. With such dynamism and potential, the sky's the limit for anyone joining forces with this trailblazing company.

And a big BONUS - they will organise a 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗞 𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗠𝗜𝗧 (𝗦𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽) for the superstar candidate! 🤩🌟

Who Are They

The Consultancy sits at the intersection of strategic insights, innovation, and business growth. They don’t do off-the-shelf solutions. They don’t deal in ‘just research.’ They are architects of change, helping global brands understand their customers, reposition their offerings, and transform the way they go to market. The work they do influences billion-dollar decisions. Their clients don’t just want answers - they want frameworks for making better ones.

What You’ll Be Doing

As a SENIOR CONSULTANT, you’ll be leading and delivering high-impact projects that redefine how businesses think about strategy. You’ll work closely with an international (close-knit) team of sharp thinkers and big-picture strategists. The work is fast, varied, and constantly evolving - one day, you might be building a segmentation model for a Fortune 50 brand, and the next, you’re reframing a GTM strategy for a breakthrough B2B tech product.

Here’s a taste of the kind of challenges you’ll tackle:

• Transforming the way entire product categories are sold and purchased, working alongside major industry players.

• Developing end-to-end B2B customer experience frameworks that reshape global GTM strategies.

• Creating new, powerful worldwide segmentations that link attitudes to specific product experience expectations.

• Helping Fortune 50 companies redefine their digital CX strategies, navigating complex, multi-category landscapes.

• Building innovation frameworks that launch new products and business models, ensuring commercial viability at scale.

• Working with cutting-edge tech, including virtual reality projects with leading global tech firms, strategic consulting for high-profile clients, and portfolio navigation for multinational enterprises.

What They’re Looking For

They need people who thrive on intellectual challenge - those who don’t just deliver insights but can translate these into commercial impact. You’ll be someone who:

• Has a strategic mindset, understanding how to move from research to actionable frameworks.

• Has strong qualitative research skills.

• Can challenge clients in the right way - pushing back when needed, taking extreme ownership of projects, and influencing senior stakeholders.

• Has a commercial instinct, always thinking about how insights drive revenue and business transformation.

• Thrives in high-performance environments where standards are high and results matter.

Why Join Them?

• No business development duties – you’ll be working on high-profile accounts, delivering work that shapes industries.

• Fast-track career progression – one of our hires was promoted 3x in 1.5 years.

• High financial upside – base salary + bonus + performance-related profit share if applicable (ask for details).

• Access to senior stakeholders – you’ll work directly with Fortune 50 clients, shaping their strategic direction.

• A company that challenges you intellectually – they love curiosity, sharp thinking, and bold decision-making.

The Bottom Line

This isn’t the role for people who want to ‘just’ consult. It’s for those who want to shape, build, and challenge. If you have a deep understanding of insights-driven strategy, a hunger for high-impact work, and the drive to push the boundaries of what’s possible, we’d love to hear from you.
