About Squarcle / The Team
Squarcle is a growing strategy, operations and digital consultancy dedicated to driving the performance of our clients. We are people‑oriented and pride ourselves on our people‑first culture. Unlike many consultancies, Squarcle is as equally dedicated to delivery as it is to design.
The Enterprise Digitisation & Change capability supports the delivery of Squarcle consultancy tasks through managing transformation and ensuring robust programme management. The team is made up of subject matter experts, including P3M and Business Analyst specialists, that work within client‑facing tasks to deliver against a specified mandate. Working together but often independently, each consultant will be expected to work onsite and remotely with the client on complex engagements.
Squarcle is committed to equality and diversity, and our aim is to build a diverse, dedicated, and high‑performing team of subject matter experts to help our clients achieve resilient supply chain, asset management, and operational excellence.
