Senior Consultant / Managing Consultant - Agile Transformation

Capgemini • Full-time • Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom • 2w ago

CAPGEMINI INVENT

At Capgemini Invent, we believe difference drives change. As inventive transformation consultants, we blend our strategic, creative and scientific capabilities, collaborating closely with clients to deliver cutting-edge solutions. Join us to drive transformation tailored to our client's challenges of today and tomorrow. Informed and validated by science and data. Superpowered by creativity and design. All underpinned by technology created with purpose.

YOUR ROLE

This is an opportunity to join a fast-growing and fast evolving Agile Transformation team that is spearheading Agile and Scaled Agile transformations across a number of our strategic clients. This team has helped organisations improve their ability to deliver iterative change at the pace they need to succeed. As the market shifts, our focus is evolving from delivery agility to systemic adaptability - helping large enterprises redesign their operating models, portfolio governance and decision rights so they can respond to volatility and become genuinely AI-native. We see agility as the structural foundation for AI-enabled ways of working, and AI as a force that reshapes how organisations coordinate, decide and create value - not simply a tooling layer bolted onto existing delivery. The team consists of consultants who specialise in operating model design, culture change, Agile tooling, training and coaching to blend the right Agile, Lean, Design Thinking, DevOps and Kanban practices to address organisations’ business objectives.

We take our clients on a journey from strategy through to execution that enables them to:

• Redesign portfolio governance, decision rights and funding models for adaptive, outcome-led decision-making
• Build the operating model foundations - persistent teams, value streams, adaptive governance - required for AI-native ways of working
• Shift from delivery agility to systemic adaptability, so AI creates genuine structural advantage rather than incremental efficiency
• Embed AI as a structural capability across the operating model, not a tooling layer bolted onto legacy delivery

We are looking for talented candidates to join the team - people who can hold their own in front of a CIO, COO or Head of Transformation, who have earned the right to talk to delivery teams by actually doing the work, and who are genuinely curious about how AI is reshaping what enterprise agility needs to mean.

As part of your role, you will help shape client engagements, develop our evolving AI-Empowered Agile Transformation propositions, and contribute to the practice and your own growth through:
• Business development: Leading and contributing to proposals, bids and client pitches; shaping new propositions; and building relationships with senior buyers at industry events.
• Practice building: Contributing to the design of our AI-Empowered Agility offering, thought leadership (whitepapers, points of view, LinkedIn content), and the ongoing development of our team through hiring, mentoring and internal community.
• Continuous development: Deepening your own expertise through advanced certifications, exposure to complex enterprise engagements, and direct collaboration with senior practitioners shaping the future of the practice.

YOUR PROFILE

We are looking for people with skills and experience in some or all of the following areas:

The strongest candidates will combine three pillars: (1) a strong consulting and advisory toolkit, (2) depth in scaled agile and enterprise agility, and (3) a clear point of view on how AI can be leveraged in agile transformation - and how agility itself is an enabler of AI-native organisations. We recognise this combination is rare; we expect candidates to demonstrate strength in at least two of these three pillars, with genuine curiosity and a developing perspective on the third.
• Strong consulting and advisory toolkit, including diagnostic design, structured problem-solving from ambiguous inputs, executive stakeholder engagement at CIO, COO and Head of Transformation level, and the ability to hold a room of senior sceptics and shift the frame of the conversation
• Demonstrable experience in proposition development, proposal and bid leadership, and offering design - not only delivery execution
• Experience of working with business and IT teams in shaping and undertaking Agile transformation programmes; creating Agile transformation Blueprints and Roadmaps, while linking technology to business outcomes
• A clear and evolving point of view on how AI and agentic capabilities change coordination cost, decision latency and operating model design - and the implications for governance, funding and team topology
• Ability to frame AI adoption as an operating model and governance problem, not a tooling problem - and to articulate why systemic agility is the structural prerequisite for becoming AI-native
• Comfort designing human–AI ways of working, where agents function as team members for defined work and humans retain judgment, accountability and organisational context — and the ability to embed this thinking into agile ceremonies, team design and value stream operation
• Awareness of the structural barriers to enterprise AI adoption - capitalisation rules, audit and risk constraints, annual funding cycles, fragmented decision rights - and how these interact with transformation design in regulated sectors
• Experience or strong interest in using AI to augment the consultant’s own craft — synthesis, client diagnostics, proposal generation, market intelligence — and a curiosity about how this reshapes how we work with clients
• Experience in designing Agile Value Stream operating models for large, complex organisations, including Lean Portfolio Management, persistent team funding, participatory budgeting and decision rights design at enterprise level
• Hands-on experience of introducing and embedding scaled Agile practices, such as Scrum of Scrums and PI Planning and assessment agile maturity.
• Knowledge of how to scale Agile practices and manage the cultural, governance, environmental and organisational changes involved in accelerating Agile adoption
• A proven coaching, training and mentoring skillset in Agile delivery and Agile rollout, being able to show a Lean-Agile mindset and customer centricity
• Ability to manage client relationships, effective reporting to secure client satisfaction throughout your project delivery.
• Proven experience in applying strategy and innovation approaches to solve complex, analytical, and technical problems and ability to take the lead to drive performance and continuous improvements.
