Senior Consultant, London

Senior Consultants play a pivotal role at Gate One: shaping and driving workstreams, building trusted client relationships, and applying strong consulting craft to deliver high‑quality transformation outcomes. You will take intellectual ownership of discrete areas of complex programmes, working collaboratively with clients and colleagues to deliver clarity, pace and meaningful results.

You will also have opportunities to contribute to business development, shape propositions, grow sector or capability communities, and support the cultural life of the firm. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast‑paced consulting environment and wants to broaden their exposure across a wide variety of transformation engagements.

Specifically, you will:

· Lead discrete workstreams within broader programmes, shaping analysis, designing solutions and producing high‑quality deliverables.

· Build trusted client relationships, contributing insight, structure and problem‑solving to help clients navigate complexity.

· Work autonomously while collaborating effectively with internal and client teams.

Support business development and account growth

· Contribute to business development through early relationship‑building, supporting BD meetings, shaping propositions and developing credentials.

· Play an active role in bids and proposals, supporting senior colleagues in converting opportunities.

Help build Gate One

About You:

You must have around 4-6 years’ experience gained within management consulting firms. This is a mandatory requirement for the role. We are not able to consider candidates whose experience sits solely within industry roles.

You will also bring:

· Experience leading workstreams with autonomy — shaping content, structuring analysis, managing stakeholders and co‑creating solutions.

· Experience coaching or overseeing junior colleagues or client team members.

· Strong communication skills, emotional intelligence and the ability to build rapport quickly.

· Curiosity, versatility and a proactive approach to learning and contributing to firm‑wide initiatives.
