Senior Consultant, Digital Advisory and Transformation
Job Description
What if you could do the kind of work the world needs? At WSP, you can access our global scale, contribute to landmark projects and connect with the brightest minds in your field to do the best work of your life. You can embrace your curiosity in a culture that celebrates new ideas and diverse perspectives. You can experience a world of opportunity and the chance to shape a career as unique as you.
A Little More About Your Role
This is an opportunity for you to join a growing team that operates in the field of Digital Healthcare. We are ambitious and passionate about supporting our healthcare customers by maximising Digital to enable new ways of working and new models of care. The patient and the clinician are always our primary concern and focus. Our growth comes at a time when it is now fully appreciated at all levels that healthcare must innovate if it is to survive and meet the increasingly challenging healthcare demands.
We specialise in digital transformation for all healthcare environments and the development of innovative Digital plans for new hospital/healthcare facility build projects. These projects are truly an opportunity to be part of positive change, which maximises emerging technologies, and ultimately benefits peoples’ lives.
The role is all about collaboration, whether with client clinical and operational teams, patients, partner organisations and a range of specialist teams across WSP. Every project is unique and will offer its own particular challenges. How far we, and you, decide to leverage Digital innovation for the benefit of our customers is limited only by our own imaginations. We seek people who think differently, are curious, and are willing to not be constrained by how things have been done before, but who are ready to push new limits.
You will be part of a team that undertakes project-based work for a range of healthcare clients where achieving significant change is the expectation. Our clients will look to us to coach, mentor and educate stakeholders in what is possible and how we get them there. At its core, we follow a 3‑step process – understand the current state, define a future state, and plan the Digital interventions required to achieve that future state. Where we can, we will both plan the Digital transformation activities and then deliver them.
As a Senior Consultant, you will have the opportunity to form lasting relationships with our customers and embed yourself within client organisations as a trusted collaborator and advisor. The projects you work on will be complex and often take a multidisciplinary approach. You will be able to identify business development opportunities, both through contract extensions and new business. You will have the opportunity to be involved in thought leadership and to support the promotion of the team’s capabilities within the industry. Your ideas will always be valued and you will be supported in identifying ways of better serving our customers and extending our capabilities.
What We Will Be Looking For You To Demonstrate
* An appropriate academic qualification that can be utilised in this role. Whether in Digital, healthcare, the built environment or relevant discipline.
* Demonstrable experience in a Healthcare, Digital or Built environment setting, and/or with project delivery of a Digital or transformation nature.
* An analytical problem‑solving approach, a familiarity with the technology deployment lifecycle, and with data visualisation skills being desirable.
* Experience of project delivery including extensive stakeholder engagement, production of strong strategic outputs and delivery of technology implementations.
* A consulting mindset that can build trust and credibility, the discipline to follow robust project management processes ensuring a high‑quality outcome, and a curious nature that ultimately supports the delivery of outcomes that exceed customer expectations, and which sets WSP apart from its competitors.
* A self‑confident, enthusiastic, energetic outlook and motivation to learn.
* An inquisitive and enquiring nature that can face a problem from different angles and think differently.
* Good communication skills and the ability to work independently as well as part of a team.
* An ability to forge collaborative relationships, earn trust and demonstrate empathy.
