Business Transformation – Solution Delivery Architect – Project and Program Design_Consulting Manager

The Transformation Design & Execution (TD&E) practice at EY offers a rewarding career path focused on complex business, technology, and infrastructure transformation. If you're passionate about solving today’s toughest challenges, join our dynamic team.

The Opportunity

As a Project and Program Manager specializing in Business Performance within Transformation Architecture and Delivery, you’ll lead initiatives aligned with strategic goals. Your expertise in Agile and Waterfall methodologies will ensure projects meet timelines, budgets, and quality standards.

Clients are seeking a new kind of Transformation Design expert—one who offers strategic guidance, drives product and solution vision, and is deeply involved in delivery and value realization. Traditional providers like strategy firms and systems integrators often fall short of these expectations.

Our integrated capabilities in planning, analysis, and delivery distinguish us from conventional program management. We bridge the gap between strategy and execution by designing frameworks that enable data-driven decisions, optimize commercial transformation, and support value management and complex program structures. With EY’s focus on digital and AI transformation, we’ve embedded technology into our processes to automate tasks and deliver deeper insights.

Key Responsibilities

As a TD&E Manager, you’ll help clients establish Transformation Management Offices (TMO), or Enterprise PMOs (EPMO) using proven frameworks based on global standards. You’ll collaborate with leadership to design and operate business and solution architecture, product management approaches, and value delivery structures, tracking performance and benefits across workstreams.

You’ll manage multiple processes and projects with a focus on quality and risk, including:

• Driving process improvement and identifying innovative solutions.
• Leading teams to deliver complex technical initiatives with performance outcomes.
• Applying expertise to resolve business issues and implement quality solutions.
• Traveling as needed to meet client requirements.
