Huw Radcliffe

My name is Huw Radcliffe, and I’m a Junior Business Architect on the Transformation & Delivery Consulting team (TDC). I assist with designing and optimizing business processes to make them more efficient and effective. I support more senior architects in developing strategies to transform and implement recommended organizational changes. So far, I'm partway through my two-year Junior Consultant Development Programme (JCDP) with AtkinsRéalis.

What has been your favourite experience on the programme?

My favourite opportunity has been my current role as a Business Architect working in the Cyber Sector. The role and the subject area were completely new to me, so it's been a great experience to fully immerse myself in this space. Working as a Business Architect has been particularly interesting. It has allowed me to get a 'full vision' of a project, from the highest-level strategies to individual processes.

What is the best thing about working for AtkinsRéalis?

The combination of the expertise of colleagues paired with the willingness to help and guide. I've had countless experiences of subject matter experts being happy to spend time with me. They are more than happy to impart their knowledge every time – even if we have never been formally introduced.

What is your top tip for new graduates?

Get talking to the people around you, including colleagues you may not necessarily cross paths with. Extending your internal network will open a wide range of opportunities – particularly in finding roles and internal initiatives that suit you.

How is your professional development going?

As a JCDP grad, I've worked across a broad scope of clients and roles. I get a real sense that everything I do for clients contributes to a brighter future for the planet. Going forward, I'd like to spend some time on the mathematical modelling team and use the technical skills I've gained through studies in real-world scenarios.

Why choose AtkinsRéalis?

I was initially attracted to AtkinsRéalis for its reputation of fostering innovation and providing opportunities to work on cutting-edge projects. On top of this, the supportive environment that encourages continuous learning and personal growth is more than just face value. You'll be given genuine backing to take your career where you want to be.
