About the role
As a (Digital) Customer Experience Consultant within PA’s Digital & Data community, you’ll help clients navigate emerging technologies, evolving customer expectations, and the rapid pace of digital change. This is a role for someone who thinks differently, is inventive, analytical, curious, entrepreneurial, and comfortable shaping direction even when the path is unclear.
Your work will span early discovery, insight generation, opportunity framing, proposition definition, AI‑enabled strategy work, and storytelling for senior audiences. Sometimes you’ll work autonomously on strategic challenges; at other times you’ll be embedded in cross‑disciplinary teams alongside designers, engineers, and product specialists.
This is not a purely theoretical strategy role. It’s practical, creative and strategy‑my nature not always by practice.
What you’ll do
* Frame problems, make sense of complex information and define clear strategic options
* Lead or contribute to digital, AI and experience‑driven strategy engagements
* Create propositions, narratives, visions and roadmaps that guide long‑term direction
* Use AI tools (e.g., Copilot, Miro, ChatGPT, Claude, agentic workflows, and other generative tooling) to accelerate research, insight synthesis, scenario exploration and creative development
* Facilitate workshops and leadership sessions to align stakeholders around decisions
* Produce compelling storytelling outputs — presentations, narratives, strategic documents — that influence at senior levels
* Work with design, product and engineering teams to shape strategy that is achievable in practice
* Identify opportunities for innovation and new value creation across markets and organisations.
Qualifications
Who you are
* A strategic thinker with a creative, entrepreneurial mindset.
* Someone who sees connections others miss and can articulate them clearly.
* Deeply curious about the future of digital and AI and the shifts they create.
* Confident working through ambiguity and defining structure where none exists.
* Compelling communicator who can simplify complex ideas without losing meaning.
* Comfortable challenging assumptions and bringing fresh perspectives.
* Able to work autonomously or collaboratively depending on the need.
* You shape direction through insight, evidence and imagination.
* You use AI tools as a strategic partner in research, modelling and ideation.
* You flex your approach — structured when needed, exploratory when the moment demands it.
* You are comfortable moving between divergent thinking and sharp, concise conclusions.
* You engage confidently with senior stakeholders and guide meaningful conversations.
* You avoid frameworks for their own sake, choosing methods that truly fit the problem.
* You bring energy, originality and a point of view.
Why this role may not be the right fit
* If you prefer rigid frameworks or heavily structured strategy processes
* If you’re uncomfortable with open‑ended, ambiguous problem spaces
* If you prefer execution over shaping direction and vision
* If you don’t enjoy senior‑level communication or influencing
* If you aren’t curious about AI or emerging technologies
* If you want tightly defined boundaries rather than fluid, creative strategic work
* If you aren’t interested in stretching yourself, taking initiative, or shaping your own growth at PA, this won’t be the right environment.
Benefits
* Health and lifestyle perks accompanying private healthcare for you and your family
* 25 days annual leave (plus a bonus half‑day on Christmas Eve) with the opportunity to buy 5 additional days
* Generous company pension scheme
* Opportunity to get involved with community and charity‑based initiatives
* Annual performance‑based bonus
* PA share ownership
* Tax‑efficient benefits (cycle to work, give as you earn)
