About the Role

We are building the next-generation Transformation Office to sustain and scale our Tailwind program. We are looking for a high-caliber ex-consultant to join as a Transformation Lead, owning strategy-to-execution delivery of high-impact initiatives across the business. This is a rare opportunity to move from advising to owning real business impact in a fast-growing global pet food company.

What You Will Do

Lead High-Impact Transformation Initiatives

• Manage strategic initiatives end-to-end implementation across Commercial, Manufacturing, and Procurement
• Drive from problem structuring → solution design → implementation → impact delivery
• Deliver measurable outcomes (e.g., cost savings, revenue growth, working capital improvement)

Solve Complex Business Problems

• Break down ambiguous problems into structured analyses and actionable insights
• Apply hypothesis-driven thinking and data analytics to inform decisions

Drive Cross-Functional Execution

• Align stakeholders across functions and geographies
• Unblock issues and maintain execution momentum
• Ensure initiatives do not stall or become siloed

Own Impact Delivery (Not Just Tracking)

• Build and track business cases
• Monitor delivery vs. committed targets
• Ensure results are real, measurable, and sustainable

Work Directly with Senior Leadership

• Engage regularly with Transformation Director and senior stakeholders
• Prepare and present regular executive-level updates and recommendations

Build Internal Capability

• Coach internal teams on problem solving, analytics, and execution discipline
• Help embed transformation practices into business-as-usual processes

Who We Are Looking For

• 5–8 years of experience in management consulting, preferably with a top-tier or leading mid-tier consulting firm.
• Experience leading cross-functional transformation or operational improvement projects
• Exposure to industrial, manufacturing, or FMCG environments is a plus

What Sets You Apart

• Strong hypothesis-driven thinking with sharp analytical skills
• Proven ability to translate strategy into action and results
• Strong stakeholder management and executive communication
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity with high accountability for outcomes

Why Join Us

• Real ownership of impact (not just advisory work)
• Direct exposure to senior leadership
• Opportunity to shape and lead a best-in-class transformation
• Broad cross-functional exposure across a global business

Team & Context

• Part of the Transformation Office driving company-wide initiatives
• Works across 80+ initiative owners and multiple value streams
• Supported by a team of Business Analysts and strong internal leadership
