As a Team Lead within our Data Platform And Cloud Unit, you will merge your (part-time) consultancy delivery activities with the dynamic role of team management for your assigned group. Not only will you lead and coordinate the efforts of your team, but you'll also take an active role in driving business development initiatives. Your responsibilities will include shaping value propositions and building a knowledge base specific to clients or topics. Additionally, ensuring your team's engagement and wellbeing will be a key aspect of your role. Taking on this position will not only enhance your current skills but will also pave the way for future career advancements, offering you unique opportunities to grow and make a meaningful contribution.
Stay in the game
You continue doing client work. This keeps your expertise fresh and means your guidance comes from real, recent experience, not outdated playbooks. It ensures you stay close to the work that matters.
Shape our direction
You join the Data Platform And Cloud leadership team, where you help shape how we work, how we grow, what we stand for, and how we position ourselves in the market.
Accelerate your career
This role combines leadership responsibility, strategic visibility, and real delivery work. It’s the kind of experience that opens doors to senior roles. It's a genuine accelerator, not just a title change.
Leadership that's grounded in reality
You coach and mentor people while staying hands‑on with clients. This lets you bring real‑world experience directly into your leadership. Along the way, you’ll strengthen your leadership skills: effective coaching, strategic thinking, performance management, stakeholder alignment, and handling difficult situations with confidence.
Genuine influence, not just input
Your voice matters. You’re part of the core leadership team that shapes how the Data Platform And Cloud Unit evolves: its direction, culture, values, way of working, and how we show up for clients. This isn't symbolic, but real day‑to‑day impact.
