Overview
At Capgemini Invent, we believe difference drives change. As inventive transformation consultants, we blend our strategic, creative and scientific capabilities, collaborating closely with clients to deliver cutting-edge solutions. We invite you to join us to drive transformation tailored to our clients' challenges of today and tomorrow, informed and validated by science and data, superpowered by creativity and design, and underpinned by technology created with purpose.
YOUR ROLE
The IT Cost & Value team is part of the growing Business Technology practice. We are looking for talented individuals to join the team to help our clients make strategic cost optimisation and transformation decisions to help realise the true value of their technology (people, technology, and capabilities).
Our IT Cost & Value team works in close partnership with two other offer teams: (i) Technology Strategy and (ii) IT Mergers & Acquisitions. Our work typically involves the following:
* Advising clients on the strategic role of technology within their organisation: differentiating and innovating where it should be, providing repeatable core services, and operationalising capabilities (in house, outsource, partner, etc.).
* Modelling benefits and costs to deliver a substantiated business case for change along with an achievable delivery plan.
* Identifying how IT Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) can be optimised through analysis and prioritisation of cost levers across and beyond the IT estate.
* Building the right level of digital capabilities between technology and people to prepare organisations for current and future challenges.
* Helping clients define their technology strategy for restructuring their technology asset base to support merger and acquisition initiatives or wider digital transformation objectives.
As part of your role you will also have the opportunity to contribute to the business and your own personal growth, through activities that form part of the following categories:
* Business Development – Leading or contributing to proposals, RFPs, bids, proposition development, client pitch contribution, client hosting at events.
* Internal contribution – Campaign development, internal think-tanks, whitepapers, practice development (operations, recruitment, team events & activities), offering development.
* Learning & development – Training to support your career development and the skills demand within the company, certifications, etc.
YOUR PROFILE
We are looking for Senior Consultant-level candidates with elements of the below experience:
* Experience in delivering strategic cost optimisation engagements with a focus on using cost analysis techniques to identify cost reduction opportunities and build cases for change and transformative cost optimisation roadmaps.
* Robust financial acumen and analytical abilities with proficiency in IT financial management, e.g. Technology Business Management (TBM), IT budgeting, TCO analysis, cost-benefit analysis, data gathering and manipulation, and business case modelling to help clients evaluate the cost effectiveness of IT investments.
* Ability to support clients moving away from conventional annual budgeting to multi-year strategic investment plans that fund products rather than projects.
* Confidence in discussing the value of technology and using analysis methods to quantify the impact of cost reduction initiatives.
* Experience in using third-party IT financial management tools is a plus.
* Good understanding of industry trends and how to capitalise on technology to drive client value.
* Demonstration of core management consulting skills, including Excel, storyboarding, comparative analysis, project and workstream management, presentation skills, and the ability to quickly build productive relationships with senior stakeholders.
