Alpha Financial Markets Consulting median: 19 days open

The posting

Alpha Financial Markets Consulting (Alpha) is the leading consultancy to the asset and wealth management industry. Over the past 20 years, we have grown to become a team of 1,500 industry experts working across all of the major financial centres globally, partnering with 80 of the top 100 managers by AUM, and all of the top 20. We are proud that many of our team have established long and fulfilling careers with us, with many having stayed for well over a decade, playing central roles in building the business that we are today.

We hope that you will join us to shape the next chapter of our growth story.

The opportunity

We work with asset & wealth managers on how they most effectively sell to and service their clients. In practice that means the end-to-end client lifecycle, the processes sitting behind it, the operating model that supports it and the technology it all runs on. The work is strategic, large, and of high impact to our clients.

This is one of the fastest growing parts of our UK business, and we are hiring someone to help us build it further, specifically in the area of Client Reporting where we are seeing significant demand. That covers the proposition set, the team, and delivering the largest and most complex work we take on. You would be the senior person on the ground for a programme or a major workstream, with a team under you and a client sponsor to answer to - and someone working with practice leadership discussing where we should be heading.

Who you are

You want to be part of building something. You can see the gap between what the market needs and what anyone is currently offering it and want to do something about it. You have taken an idea from a conversation to something real before, and you like helping to create things.

You make problems your problems. You get into the detail until you understand what is really going on, which means you can propose the fix that no one else has managed to find. A recommendation isn't finished for you until you understand what sits underneath it, and when you put it in front of a client, you can defend every part of it.

You're always curious about what's coming next. You like to learn, and you keep your own informal radar on where asset management is heading, rather than recycling ideas that have already had their moment.

You're the person clients call first. Clients feel you understand them and you are on their side. You have built that kind of trust before, and you can point to real relationships as proof.

You enjoy seeing other people grow. You care about keeping a team motivated, and you take real pride in coaching and mentoring juniors towards becoming future leaders. The people who have worked for you have grown quickly, and they would tell you that you were a real part of why.

What you’ll do

  • Leading delivery of our large programmes or workstreams, and owning the plan, the governance, the risks and the outcome
  • Designing the target state client reporting offering for our clients, and the processes and target operating models which can deliver it efficiently
  • Acting as the senior business-side lead on client reporting technology platform implementations such as Kurtosys, SimCorp, Vermillion, working closely with technology on design and sequencing
  • Running mixed teams of our people and client staff, which includes setting the quality standard, delegating properly, and developing the people below you
  • Handling the day-to-day relationship with client sponsors and senior stakeholders, including the difficult conversations
  • Acting as a sparring partner to the practice leadership on where our proposition should go, bringing your own ideas, arguing for them, and then building the ones that land
  • Coaching and mentoring the consultants around you, and taking a hand in how we hire and who we hire
  • Being restless about how the practice itself works, so what we should stop doing, what we should be better at and what we are missing

What you bring

  • Strong consulting experience is essential. We will also consider candidates whose experience has been genuinely consultative within industry, but the shape of that experience needs to be recognisable.
  • Experience in asset management, wealth management, or a closely related area of financial services.
  • A strong track record of leading large-scale change as a programme manager, lead project manager, or design lead, with clear ownership of delivery, governance, and outcomes.
  • Experience of large technology-enabled transformation programmes, including design and strategic work at the front end, not only the execution.
  • Strong people leadership experience, including managing teams and being accountable for the quality of their output.
  • The confidence and credibility to operate independently with senior client stakeholders and lead discussions in senior forums.

Nice to have (not deal-breakers)

  • Experience developing or refining propositions, segment strategies, or service models.
  • Experience supporting pitch processes, including defining team shapes, workplans and delivery approaches.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
