Change Manager / Senior Change Consultant

Outside IR35 Contract | Immediate Start | London-Based Boutique Consultancy

Freshwater Recruitment is partnering with an established and growing boutique change management consulting firm in London to appoint an experienced Change Manager / Senior Change Consultant on a contract basis.

This is an excellent opportunity for high-calibre change professionals who enjoy variety, autonomy, and working closely with senior stakeholders across a diverse portfolio of transformation programmes.

The Opportunity

Joining a highly regarded specialist consultancy, you will work across a range of complex change and transformation initiatives, supporting clients through significant business, technology, and operating model change. Engagements span multiple sectors and offer the opportunity to deliver end-to-end change management solutions in a genuinely consulting-led environment.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
