Requirements
  • A confident and engaging personality
  • Proven leadership qualities – to motivate, coach and develop team members while overseeing project delivery, delegating and coordinating tasks amongst the team to ensure the highest quality output within timeframes
  • A passion for problem solving
  • Responsible and accountable - unlike other firms, you will often be the Elixirr lead on an engagement, this means being responsible for delivering the work and accountable for resolving any risks and issues that arise
  • Self-awareness - you need to embrace feedback and strive for continual improvement as well as supporting the development of others
  • An entrepreneurial spirit
  • Facilitation skills – experience of structuring and running workshops
  • Stakeholder management skills - both internal and client, with the ability to influence
  • Senior client relationship management skills - delivering exceptional value to the client through outstanding delivery
  • Big picture thinking
  • Deep-end survival skills – you will have conquered a steep learning curve. As a Manager you have to be able to get up to speed very quickly, often without an SME, and to a level where you can lead discussion and conversations new to you as the expert in the room
  • Intellectual curiosity to invest in broadening your own skill set and identifying commercial opportunities
  • Flexible - this applies across all Grades but as a Manager you are often the most senior full-time person on an engagement, and given we have small teams deployed on short engagements, you have to be prepared to accept that sometimes projects will mean you need to change your plans outside of work
  • Adaptable - being able to flex your communication style depending on the team / project / client etc
  • Comfortable dealing with ambiguity and complexity and still delivering - often our clients aren’t clear themselves on what they want help with, and given the short nature of our engagements there is a need to rapidly establish
  • Experienced in one or more areas of strategy, transformational change, target operating models, operational excellence, outsourcing and business case development
