Overview

AtkinsRéalis is growing its Digital Insights & Experience (DI&E) consulting capability and is looking for Senior Consultants who are curious, analytically minded, and motivated to help organisations turn insight into adopted, measurable change.

DI&E brings together experience‑led design, behavioural insight and data‑informed decision‑making to enable confident transformation in secure and regulated environments. Our consultants work at the intersection of people, process, data and technology, helping clients understand the real problem, design practical solutions, and ensure change is embedded and delivers value.

We are building a multi‑disciplinary team of people from diverse backgrounds.

The role as a Senior Consultant in Digital Insights & Experience will involve:

  • Working alongside AtkinsRéalis Technical Directors, Principals and delivery teams across the organisation to shape and deliver evidence‑based digital transformation for our customers.
  • Working in cross‑functional, multi‑disciplinary teams to develop deep insight into client environments, operating contexts and the key drivers for change.
  • Leading experience‑led discovery and analysis to diagnose the real need behind requirements, considering people, process, data, governance and technology together.
  • Designing and supporting delivery of journeys, services, operating models and change interventions that translate insight into adopted, operational outcomes.
  • Developing prioritised roadmaps and recommendations that align strategic intent with practical delivery and measurable value.
  • Visualising complex problems, insights and value chains to enable leaders and stakeholders to make evidence‑based decisions and drive confident change.
  • Supporting research and thought leadership around emerging approaches, technologies and practices that shape how insight, experience and value realisation are delivered in secure environments.
  • On a day‑to‑day basis, working on specific programmes and projects to deliver high‑quality, value‑driven outcomes for our clients.
  • Ensuring that the advice and solutions we deliver reflect our principles for inclusion, diversity, equality and sustainability, and generate social value as well as programme outcomes.
