Director - Transport & Infrastructure

Key Responsibilities

• Shape and drive the vision, growth strategy and go‑to‑market approach for the Transport & Infrastructure practice.
• Drive commercial growth within Transport & Infrastructure accounts, supporting priority pursuits and building a robust pipeline (in line with practice targets).
• Lead end‑to‑end business development activity where required: spotting opportunities, shaping client needs, developing propositions, writing/winning bids, and converting opportunities into high‑quality delivery.
• Expand our Transport & Infrastructure offering across procurement and commercial transformation, category strategy, contract and supplier management, operating model design, cost reduction/value creation, and programme delivery support across capital portfolios.
• Oversee delivery of complex consulting programmes, ensuring exceptional quality and measurable outcomes for Transport & Infrastructure clients (e.g., procurement transformations, supplier remediation, commercial governance, and major programme support).
• Act as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders across transport operators, infrastructure owners, delivery bodies, contractors and regulators.

Successful candidates will demonstrate the following:

• Extensive consulting delivery experience, with a strong focus on procurement and operating model / commercial transformation.
• Strong experience within transport and infrastructure sectors; adjacent sector exposure is also valuable (e.g., rail, energy, utilities and wider capital programmes).
• Business development experience (e.g., shaping propositions, supporting bids, growing accounts) is highly advantageous and will set candidates apart, though it is not a strict requirement. A strong network is a plus.
• A demonstrable track record of leading and delivering high‑impact consulting engagements end‑to‑end, including complex stakeholder landscapes, tight governance and measurable outcomes.
• Outstanding leadership and stakeholder‑management capabilities, with the credibility and gravitas to influence senior client executives and lead teams through ambiguity.
