The Business We’re an AI-native, human-led business built to help clients reimagine, reinvent, and lead their markets into the AI era. We bring the imagination, intellect and market insight, execution smarts, and adaptive approach to collaboration required to help leaders deliver real change. We work with clients in four closely interdependent markets: central Government, including departments, agencies, and strategic, commercial suppliers; health and care, including national bodies, trusts, place-based partners, and commercial and digital suppliers; education, including national bodies, awarding organisations, and front-line institutions; and, the FTSE - principally leveraging our expertise in AI and associated capability building. Through A WORKS we collaborate with thought leaders, innovators, and AI-specialist devs to build products which tackle the biggest problems we see in the markets we support – setting aside the consulting commercial model to work in whatever ways best solve the problem. For example, through Project Shybird, we’re building an AI-powered platform and apps which reimagine the learning value chain: conducting epic capability research, supporting rapid high-quality qualification and programme definition, enabling course design and content creation, personalisation of learning experiences – and new levels of insight for the future. We’re a business powered by the passion, grit, insight, intellect, and execution-smarts of our people: a tightly knit team of experts, willing to challenge market convention, and our colleagues, in pursuit of the transformational change we believe is possible through the dawn of the AI era. The Role We're always keen to hear from indivi duals who could drive growth and client outcomes in the markets we serve. We're particularly interested to talk to indivi duals with expertise, networks, and the ability to generate revenue in: - Digital - from strategy and transformation, through product innovation. - Education - including schools, TVET, apprenticeships, and higher education. - Health and social care - including national bodies, place-based partners, and Trusts. - Central g overnment - supporting commissioning and delivery of major programmes. - Strategic suppliers to g overnment - supporting the pursuit and mobilisation of major deals. - Learning and development - including the definition and delivery of exec utive education programmes. Our cadre of principal consultants play a leading role in our go-to-market efforts in agreed markets or market segments, working with our incoming Market Leaders , Chief Growth Officer Cliff Graham , and with our comms and engagement director, Caroline Rae. They also oversee and lead delivery of client engagements, working to our Chief Delivery Officer, Andrew Price . They're accountable for compliant, timely, commercially successful delivery of the engagements they lead, end-to-end , ensuring excellence runs through all our interactions with client s . Targets for principal consultants reflect the key role they play in revenue raising and in delivering excellence on client engagements. Principal consultants are also leaders in our business - advising our senior management team and board on strategic and investment decisions; providing the insight and ideas we need to drive A Works' product innovation funnel; and operating as role models, mentors, and managers for more junior colleagues. These roles include very clear growth and progression opportunities. As we grow consulting and product revenues in each of our markets, we create more, and more senior roles in them - and fully expect that the colleagues who drive that growth will fill those roles, bringing talented colleagues up with them through the organisation.
