Senior Consultant, Digital Insights & Experience

Job Description

Overview

AtkinsRéalis is growing its Digital Insights & Experience (DI&E) consulting capability and is looking for Senior Consultants who are curious, analytically minded, and motivated to help organisations turn insight into adopted, measurable change.

DI&E brings together experience‑led design, behavioural insight and data‑informed decision‑making to enable confident transformation in secure and regulated environments. Our consultants work at the intersection of people, process, data and technology, helping clients understand the real problem, design practical solutions, and ensure change is embedded and delivers value.

We are building a multi‑disciplinary team of people from diverse backgrounds. You might be a digital consultant, service or experience designer, business analyst, or transformation specialist looking to deepen your impact. We welcome creative and adaptable systems thinkers who want to shape the future of digital services while continuing to grow their own consulting careers.

When it comes to living your life, we want your role at AtkinsRéalis to be a meaningful part of your personal journey. You’ll join a collaborative, inclusive team culture where people support, mentor and challenge one another. We succeed together, and our flexible and hybrid working practices are designed to support different priorities and ways of working.

Your role

As a Senior Consultant in Digital Insights & Experience within our Secure Government business, you’ll be helping our clients deliver complex, evidence‑based digital transformation programmes.

The role as a Senior Consultant in Digital Insights & Experience will involve:

• Working alongside AtkinsRéalis Technical Directors, Principals and delivery teams across the organisation to shape and deliver evidence‑based digital transformation for our customers.

• Working in cross‑functional, multi‑disciplinary teams to develop deep insight into client environments, operating contexts and the key drivers for change.

• Leading experience‑led discovery and analysis to diagnose the real need behind requirements, considering people, process, data, governance and technology together.

• Designing and supporting delivery of journeys, services, operating models and change interventions that translate insight into adopted, operational outcomes.

• Developing prioritised roadmaps and recommendations that align strategic intent with practical delivery and measurable value.

• Visualising complex problems, insights and value chains to enable leaders and stakeholders to make evidence‑based decisions and drive confident change.

• Supporting research and thought leadership around emerging approaches, technologies and practices that shape how insight, experience and value realisation are delivered in secure environments.

• On a day‑to‑day basis, working on specific programmes and projects to deliver high‑quality, value‑driven outcomes for our clients.

• Ensuring that the advice and solutions we deliver reflect our principles for inclusion, diversity, equality and sustainability, and generate social value as well as programme outcomes.

About you

• Strong systems thinking, a consultative mindset and an ability to address complex, ambiguous problems with structure and clarity.

• Experience in digital consulting, service or experience design, business analysis, transformation delivery, or related disciplines.

• Experience applying user‑centred, journey‑led or experience‑driven approaches to shape services, processes or operating models.

• High data literacy, with experience interpreting analytics, performance measures or insight outputs to inform decisions and recommendations.

• Confidence working in agile or iterative delivery environments, collaborating across disciplines and organisational boundaries.

• Ability to analyse complex problems, design pragmatic solutions, and communicate them clearly to a wide range of audiences.

• Strong stakeholder engagement, facilitation and communication skills, with experience working with senior client stakeholders.

• Experience contributing to the sale of consulting work, including bids, proposals, or client presentations.
