Manager Strategy Consulting – Data Economics.

  • £80,000
Most data consultancies help organisations use their data better. Our client is asking a more fundamental question: what is it actually worth?
  • The opportunity

    This is a specialist boutique pioneering the field of Data Economics — a discipline that sits at the intersection of strategy consulting and financial modelling, and one that is growing fast. Their clients are some of the UK’s largest and most complex organisations. The work lands at board level.

    The problems are genuinely hard.

    They’re looking for a Consulting Manager to join as a Solution Consultant — a core delivery role that sits at the heart of every engagement. You’ll own workstreams, produce high-quality analytical outputs, and manage day-to-day client relationships with confidence. If you’re a structured thinker who wants to do serious consulting work in an emerging field, this is worth your attention.

  • What the work actually looks like

    You’ll work within squads led by a Solution Lead, taking defined workstreams from brief to output. That means building models and analysis, running workshops, presenting findings to mid-level clients, and mentoring more junior analysts on the team. You’ll also contribute to the methods and IP that make the firm’s work repeatable and scalable.

    Day to day, you can expect to:

    • Own workstreams end-to-end, from brief to client-ready output
    • Build analysis, financial models, and structured presentations to a high standard
    • Manage day-to-day client interactions — workshops, findings sessions, relationship-building at mid-level
    • Support more senior team members on delivery planning and risk management
    • Mentor and review the work of Solution Analysts
    • Contribute to the firm’s growing library of methods, frameworks, and accelerators
  • What we're looking for

    You’ll be a structured, delivery-focused consultant — likely at manager level — with a track record of owning complex analytical workstreams and communicating findings clearly to clients.

    • Experience in a consulting, professional services, or advisory environment
    • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills — comfortable taking a complex brief and producing clear outputs
    • Confident communicator, written and verbal, with experience presenting findings and running client sessions
    • Domain experience in at least one area: data strategy, governance, analytics, financial modelling, or business change
    • Awareness of commercial context — scope, quality, and what good delivery looks like
  • Why now, why this firm

    The field is genuinely emerging. Data Economics is being defined right now, and this firm is at the front of it. Joining at this stage means being part of building something, not inheriting a finished model.

    The work is real from day one. No extended onboarding or shadow work. You’ll be on live engagements quickly, working on problems that matter to serious organisations.

    The culture is built on trust. A small, high-calibre team with no unnecessary layers. Your work is visible, your contribution counts, and the people around you are genuinely excellent.

    The package is competitive. Benchmarked against consulting market rates, with private health cover, enhanced mental health support, generous family policies, and access to professional financial advice.

    Flexibility with purpose. Around 60% in-person collaboration; genuine autonomy to shape the rest of your week around where you do your best work.

    This role is being recruited on a confidential basis. The client’s name will be shared with suitable candidates at first conversation stage.
