Your Impact

You'll shape transformation governance which includes design and operationalize Transformation Offices, defining structure, governance, and performance cadence to drive accountability and impact. You'll lead workstreams end-to-end, taking full ownership of delivery across defined workstreams, from design to measurable impact. You'll translate strategy into execution including turning strategic ambitions into concrete initiatives, milestones, and KPIs that drive focus and accountability.

Finally, you'll collaborate across McKinsey; working closely with strategists, functional, and digital experts to connect insight with execution and deliver tangible business outcomes.
You'll be based in London, with hybrid flexibility and travel as required. Engagement rhythm is typically, Monday –Thursday on-site or hybrid; Friday more focused on firm building and development. The team model consists of small, high-trust teams (3–5 colleagues) integrated with McKinsey partners and experts.
