Transformational Change Consultant

2.2

Description of the goods or services required

Our Executive Team have recently set a stretching and far-reaching five-year vision for transformational change that will touch all aspects of our business; our working methods and environment, service delivery, data collection and management, processes, systems (technology) and partnership arrangements.

A cross-directorate group of senior managers will lead on discussions with stakeholders with a view to recommending a ‘critical path’ roadmap of activities and projects which will realise the vision set; they will play an ongoing critical role in programme delivery thereafter.

We are seeking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced consultant(s) to work with us to set our ‘critical path’ (6 months). Acting in the capacity of a strategic advisor, critical friend, mentor and coach you will support and challenge us to set in motion a high-impact plan having regard to optimum project phasing. You will support us in the handover of the Critical Path roadmap to our dedicated in-house programme management office and act as a Critical Friend through to programme commencement.
