Business Change Consultant | National Security | Cheltenham | Competitive Salary + Benefits
Are you tired of joining a consultancy that already has all the answers? Frustrated by rigid processes you had no hand in building? Ready to actually shape the way delivery works — rather than just follow it?
We're working with a number of leading management consultancies expanding their national security practices in Cheltenham. These are not typical consulting roles — they offer genuine autonomy, real client influence, and the opportunity to work on some of the UK's most complex and high-impact programmes.
The Role
You'll work embedded within national security and public sector programmes, supporting clients through complex business change — from strategy and discovery through to delivery. The work varies by project, but all roles sit within collaborative, high-performing teams where your contribution is visible and valued.

It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
