Job Description
Transformation Management Office, Executive
Our Newcastle Transformation Management Office (TMO) team sits at the heart of EY's Financial Services Transformation practice and is a key partner in our delivery of multi-million-pound transformation engagements for our clients. We bring together a wide range of other disciplines across EY Consulting and the wider firm to deliver outcome focused transformational change for our clients.
We are experiencing high demand for people with Agile and Digital transformation skills and are keen to meet people with TMO leadership experience.

The opportunity
Our Transformation Management Office (TMO) team consists of deeply experienced and proven Financial Services professionals, who draw on their knowledge to partner with clients to initiate, recover and lead large-scale transformations. The team specialises in leading business-critical change, whether it be business transformation, technology-led or regulatory change transformations.
Working closely with our clients in large organisations; we understand what is important, offering points of view and advice, supporting them, building confidence, and ensuring efficient delivery.
Through the vast experience our teams offer, we assess situations quickly, apply our thinking and improve the outcomes for our clients. We are looking to find exceptional individuals by recruiting people with an outstanding transformation delivery background who have the right attitude and commitment needed to work together on the largest and most complex transformations in the industry.
