Why Moorhouse?

We are a dynamic consulting firm, focused on delivering sustainable change. We ensure our clients succeed in their long-term goals by helping them turn their strategy into action through exceptional delivery and a commitment to establishing a culture of change. Clients like what we do and how we work, and we are looking for people to join the Moorhouse team.

We pride ourselves on being proactive, collaborative, and straightforward team players. We like to move fast as a team and both honesty and integrity are key to this. In return you will be part of a supportive and high-performing team that shares the workload, looks after each other and celebrates success together. You can be assured of an exciting opportunity that will stretch you and equip you with skills, experience and knowledge that can help organisations respond to the turbulence, change and opportunity that will define the future of work. We don’t do politics, egos, or personal agendas – it consumes too much time and distracts us from being successful together.

In the Financial Services sector team, we partner with clients to navigate pressing challenges, while positioning their organisations for future success within a rapidly evolving digital, technological, regulatory, and competitive context. To support our next phase of growth, we are bringing together an exciting team of expert Financial Services consultants with depth of sector experience and subject matter leadership to help drive improved outcomes for our clients

What are we looking for?

Potential is what excites us so we are keen to hear from people who want to harness their experience within an organisation that will invest in their professional development from day one. This isn’t just about skills for the job but skills for life – mindset, adaptability, resilience, and leadership to name just a few. You will be a key member of the sector leadership team and involved in shaping how we run the business, so the ability to lead others, and to shape and influence our continued growth and success as a sector team, is key.

Moorhouse has grown and developed its Financial Services work into a multi- million-pound sector, working with an extensive range of Financial Services institutions, and gaining recognition through repeated awards from the Financial Times as a UK Leading Management Consultancy in Financial Services. This growth has been fuelled through a series of strong client relationships, great client work, and is a result of organisations wanting to look beyond the larger consultancy suppliers who have traditionally dominated the sector. Our clients are interested in learning from the experience we can bring from other sectors and they want to work with a consultancy that embeds itself in small integrated teams working in a truly collaborative fashion.

It is important that you can contribute to sales and business development as well as leading consultant and client delivery teams on key engagements and accounts. In addition, we will expect you to motivate, support, and develop junior members of the Moorhouse team and play an active role in supporting the career development of a small group of colleagues.
