About Atkins

We help our clients achieve outcomes that deliver genuine benefits from their business programmes. We advise organisations at senior levels on complex business challenges, but also take a hands-on role to ensure the solutions are delivered and that the intended benefits of the investment are realised.

Atkins isn’t like other management consultancies. Because of our wider, real-world expertise – delivering transformative programmes and projects, often using digital technologies to make strategy happen across public and private sectors. We know how to implement change in practice, not just on paper and we’re there to see change through from start to finish, whatever challenges arise.

Helping our clients manage complex programmes and transform their businesses in response to internal and external influences and opportunities is a core skill for our Consultants. Within the Transformation & Delivery Practice our Business Consulting and P3M Delivery teams work with clients to solve some of the most interesting challenges facing organisations today. Our wide-ranging clients include central government, security and intelligence, defence, airports, universities and infrastructure. Our team members come from diverse backgrounds that cover the spectrum of services giving them an innovative and creative approach that is key to its success. Everyone in the team is passionate about their work and the value that they can deliver.

Atkins set high standards of integrity and ethics for our people. When joining us, you benefit from a working environment that prioritises integrity and we also expect each individual who joins us to display these characteristics.

We are looking to hire talented people with a track record in both delivery and business development.
We welcome applications from people with either existing Business Consulting experience or who are looking to transfer significant business and programme delivery experience gained internally into a consultancy environment
