Location: London (Hybrid) | Practice Area: Business Consulting | Type: Permanent
Shape executive decision-making on some of the financial services industry's most complex transformation programmes.
The Role
Capco is looking for an experienced transformation professional to partner with executive leadership teams across large-scale business and technology transformation programmes.
This is not a traditional Programme Management Office (PMO) role. Instead, you will act as a trusted advisor to senior client stakeholders, helping leadership teams navigate complexity by translating diverse inputs into clear strategic insight, executive narratives, and actionable recommendations.
Working across business and technology domains, you will connect strategy, delivery, and governance, enabling informed decision-making at Board and Executive Committee level while driving meaningful transformation outcomes. You'll also embrace AI-enabled ways of working, using approved AI tools and automation to enhance insight, improve productivity, and support executive decision-making, while applying appropriate human judgement and responsible AI principles.
What You'll Do
- Partner with Executive Sponsors, Programme Directors, and C-suite stakeholders, providing strategic advice, challenge, and insight throughout major transformation programmes.
- Develop executive-ready communications, Board papers, and strategic narratives that simplify complex information into clear, actionable recommendations, using AI-enabled tools where appropriate to improve speed, quality, and insight.
- Shape enterprise-wide transformation strategies, operating models, and governance approaches that align delivery with business objectives and support modern, AI-enabled ways of working where relevant.
- Lead cross-functional collaboration across business, technology, finance, operations, risk, and change teams to identify dependencies, resolve issues, and enable successful delivery.
- Provide strategic oversight by identifying emerging risks, opportunities, and trends, enabling evidence-based executive decision-making through responsible use of data, automation, and AI-supported analysis.

- Commercial awareness with the ability to connect transformation initiatives to measurable business value, operational performance, and strategic outcomes, using sound judgement when applying AI-enabled tools and automation.
