We’re looking for a Senior Digital Principal Consultant to join our Build Professional Services practice — a senior leader who thrives at the intersection of people leadership, delivery excellence, and customer impact.

This is a pivotal opportunity for an experienced practice leader who wants to shape strategy, scale high-performing teams, and partner with customers on complex, high-value engagements that deliver real outcomes.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead and assure the delivery of complex, strategic engagements, acting as a trusted advisor to senior customers and providing delivery escalation support.
  • Shape solutions and Statements of Work by engaging early in presales and partnering closely with Growth and Advisory teams.
  • Lead and grow a practice‑aligned team of consultants and engineers, building strong capability, succession and career pathways.
  • Drive recruitment, retention and engagement while fostering a strong delivery mindset and engineering culture.
  • Act as a custodian of your practice, championing standards, learning, reusable IP and community participation.


What You’ll Bring

  • Deep expertise across software architecture, hands‑on engineering, and delivery of production‑ready systems
  • A proven track record leading and developing engineering teams, including people leadership and performance management
  • Strong capability to partner with senior business and technology stakeholders, translating complex requirements into pragmatic technical solutions
  • Demonstrated experience across the full client lifecycle — from presales shaping and solution design through to successful delivery
  • A flexible, collaborative consulting mindset, able to adapt across clients, teams, and delivery environments
  • Solid understanding of Agile delivery frameworks and modern engineering practices
  • Confidence engaging executive‑level customers as a trusted technical advisor
  • Experience shaping solutions, reviewing Statements of Work, and supporting commercial outcomes
  • A relevant degree (IT, Engineering, or equivalent) and industry certifications across delivery, Agile and/or cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Background working in a Professional Services or Consulting environment
