About the role:

Our specialist Working Capital team is part of our broader Operational Restructuring team within Value Creation and Realisation. We work closely with our clients to develop sustainable solutions to free up cash from our client’s balance sheets. Our skills and knowledge are applied and gradually transferred to improve working capital management, leaving clients with sustainable performance improvement.

As a Manager you will work with cross-functional stakeholders across many different Industries. You will be responsible for the assessment of current performance and leading change and transformation efforts. You will lead specific work-streams of projects and manage operational client stakeholders on a day to day basis.

What your days will look like:

You will focus mainly on working capital improvement areas matching your previous experience and expertise, including

  • Understanding key business processes, procurement and supply chain, and operational working capital challenges

  • Financial analysis of opportunities for working capital reduction, within context of commercial requirements of the business

  • Assessment of operational and management teams within an organisation, identifying skill gaps and training needs

The role is for you if you have:

  • Previous experience in Supply Chain, Credit Management/Receivables and Procurement roles, or Working capital consulting experience in the UK or continental Europe

  • Experience in engagements to improve supply chain management, procurement, buying, collections management, inventory reduction or general working capital optimisation

  • Good end-to-end understanding of flows of goods and services, information and money and how different functions cooperate internally and externally

  • Sound financial analysis skills

  • Strong commercial awareness and business analysis skills

  • Proficiency in analytics and visualisation tools, such as Alteryx, Tableau or Power BI (is beneficial but not necessary)

What you’ll receive from us:

We offer a range of benefits including empowered flexibility and a working week split between office, home and client site; private medical cover and 24/7 access to a qualified virtual GP; six volunteering days a year and much more.
