Overview

Love solutions that make our world a better place?

AtkinsRéalis' Digital, Data and AI Advisory team is growing, and we are looking for experienced, enthusiastic people who can help clients make well-informed choices about their technology and data landscape. Our work brings together strategy, systems thinking and practical technology insight to help organisations understand their digital maturity, identify opportunities and risks, and make decisions that stand up to scrutiny.

Across our key markets, clients are dealing with an explosion of information and are struggling to harness their data to meet their objectives, whether that's'improving service performance, modernising critical assets, meeting regulatory or security expectations, or planning major investment programmes. Many of these issues begin as operational, organisational or assurance challenges, but success depends on how well data is governed, managed, shared and applied. To strengthen our capability in this area, we are particularly interested in people with strong data management experience who can help clients build the foundations needed for better assurance, analytics, improved decision-making and responsible adoption of AI.

We are growing our multidisciplinary team drawn from consulting, technology and data-focused backgrounds. You may be a data strategist, information architect, digital consultant or someone with broader experience looking to bring a stronger data lens to strategic work. Curiosity, systems thinking and the ability to connect digital, data and organisational context are all important, along with the ability to nurture trusted relationships with colleagues and clients.

As a Senior Strategy Consultant, you will deliver Digital, Data and AI advisory services that turn insight into practical action. You will lead projects and workstreams that shape strategic priorities, guiding clients through decisions that balance ambition with feasibility. Your focus will be on aligning stakeholders around a shared vision and creating clear, actionable plans that deliver measurable impact. By combining analytical rigour, strategic thinking and an understanding of clients' operating environments, you will help clients prioritise investments and achieve outcomes that matter most to their business.

Your role

• Leading projects and workstreams to deliver high-quality outputs, and ensuring recommendations reflect our values around inclusion, sustainability and social value.
• Working with clients to understand how data is created, governed and used across their organisation, and identifying opportunities to improve how strategic decisions are supported by data.
• Developing data-focused strategies, visions and roadmaps that improve data quality, strengthen governance and support future analytics and AI initiatives.
• Developing structured business cases and providing recommendations that help clients prioritise investment in data-related initiatives.
• Applying systems thinking to uncover the digital and data implications of challenges that may initially appear operational, technical or process‑led.
• Assessing organisational operating models and supporting clients in improving data ownership, stewardship and governance arrangements.
• Working with colleagues across advisory, markets and technical disciplines to create approaches that link digital and data strategy to client context and practical delivery.
• Contributing to thought leadership, knowledge sharing and capability development activities that strengthen the Digital, Data and AI Advisory practice.
• Identifying opportunities to provide additional value to clients and supporting business development, proposals and bid activities where appropriate.

About you

• A naturally curious, collaborative and practical consulting style, with the ability to understand client operating contexts and make sense of complex challenges.
• Strong consulting and stakeholder engagement skills: able to build trusted relationships across diverse stakeholder groups, influence decision-making, communicate effectively with senior stakeholders and turn analysis into clear recommendations.
• An ability to act as a bridge between business, operational and technical teams, translating client needs into clear data strategies, roadmaps and practical requirements.
• Experience in data management, including data strategy, governance, stewardship and approaches for improving organisational data capability.
• An ability to adapt and apply knowledge and experience across different industry sectors and client maturity levels.
• An ability to explain how emerging technologies and modern digital approaches depend on trusted, well-managed data, and to apply this understanding when shaping data strategies, roadmaps and recommendations.
• An ability to apply ethical and responsible considerations when shaping data and digital recommendations, including how data is governed, used and communicated.
• An ability to apply business architecture, data architecture, operating model and organisational design concepts to shape practical data and digital transformation recommendations.
• Experience in one or more of our key markets — Defence, Aerospace, Security, Energy, Utilities, Highways, Rail or the Public Sector — is an advantage.
