Senior Consultant Net-zero Strategy

As a prominent part of society companies must increasingly understand and explain their impact on society, and specifically on climate change. Do you want to support companies with taking up their pivotal role in the transformation towards a low carbon economy and help them achieving their net-zero goals? As a senior consultant in our Enterprise Model & Strategy team, you’ll be leveraging your knowledge and experience to help our clients invent what’s next in their way of doing business.

As a Senior Consultant, you get the opportunity to develop your consulting and commercial skills by delivering projects and by building warm and stable relationships with our clients. For example, you could be advising on the implementation of state-of-the-art portfolio screening or delivering carbon footprint insights. Or you could be performing an as-is-analysis of our clients regarding their strategic ambition and draft a compliance roadmap, translating ambition in milestones and project deliverables. Our team assesses the impact of carbon reduction goal setting and regulatory adherence on processes, product design and activities, and support our clients to realize essential transformations. Apart from project delivery, you’ll explore business development and shape new propositions together with your internal colleagues.

What you will be doing:

• You advise leading multinationals on carbon strategy and implementation.
• You keep abreast of the latest data & technology driven trends in carbon reduction.
• You actively participate in commercial processes by leading sales opportunities.
• You lead project streams in multidisciplinary project delivery teams.
• You’re responsible for timely stream delivery to exceed client expectations.
• You act as change leader for sustainable innovations and transformations.
• You contribute to the development of partnerships that can be beneficial for our business and clients in the financial services sector.
