Greater London, United Kingdom Cartesian Full time

Join a dynamic team working at the intersection of strategy and analytics. Accelerate your career in a high-profile role, providing insight and advice to the leading communications and digital media firms. We are looking for talented consulting and industry professionals to join our Strategy practice in the UK. In this role, you will work on high-profile projects for leading organisations in the communications sector. As a member of our team, you will have the opportunity to further develop your consulting and analytics skills, and rapidly advance your career.


Cartesian is a specialist consulting firm providing strategy and operational advisory services to global leaders in the communications, digital media, and technology industries


Our Strategy team brings together strategic, commercial, and technical skillsets, linking technology and innovation to develop strategies for growth and transformation. We have a combined team of c.60 consultants across our London and Boston offices, serving a range of international clients.


As a team, there are several factors which define our culture and approach:


  • Bright dynamic team based in central London
  • Flat organisation structure – no rigid hierarchies
  • Trust-based working – we assess staff based on their outputs, not on facetime
  • Fast progression and focus on staff development – as we’re a small team, frequent stretch opportunities are available for top performers to demonstrate capability and develop their skills
  • Variety of project work and client types across strategy, analytics, and research
  • Deep industry focus – working alongside experts who know the sector inside out
  • Reasonable working hours relative to other consultancies (~45 hours per week)
  • Relatively light amount of travel to client sites (typically less than 20%)
  • Tightknit culture with frequent team social events (team lunches, sports teams, evening socials)


Role and Responsibilities


This is an exciting opportunity to join a team of bright and dedicated individuals who work on challenging and rewarding projects for clients in the communications and digital media industries.


As a Strategy Consultant, we expect you to:


  • Quickly become an integral part of our team, owning small projects and large workstreams
  • Take a key role in client project delivery, client communications and project management
  • Apply technical and business judgment to address client challenges and offer new insights
  • Work independently, or as part of a team, to deliver rigorous quantitative analysis, impactful visualisations, and compelling presentations
  • Be comfortable working with ambiguity and flexible to changing client requirements
  • Manage junior staff on project teams, with an opportunity to coach and support their personal development
  • Be an internal thought leader, supporting business development and contributing to internal best practices
  • Share our corporate values and take an active role in initiatives to further enhance Cartesian as a supplier and employer of choice


Recent client projects have included:

  • Fibre Broadband: Prioritising areas for a network operator’s fibre buildout, using geospatial analytics to identify attractive locations and estimate financial returns.
  • Customer Experience: Using customer behaviour and network performance data to identify potential service problems, improve customer experience, and reduce support calls.
  • Churn Reduction: Providing insights to service providers on the underlying drivers of customer churn and helping them to develop strategies to increase customer loyalty.
  • Credential Sharing: Helping content providers to identify password sharing on video streaming platforms and developing strategies to mitigate this.


Previous Experience

We expect the successful candidate to have at least 3 years of experience in strategy consulting, or relevant commercial/technical experience in the TMT industry, in addition to the following attributes:


  • Interest in Cartesian’s focus sectors
  • Demonstrated strong analytical and interpersonal skills
  • Ability to communicate findings to multiple audiences
  • Track record of independently managing workstreams / projects
  • Self-driven with a commitment to delivering high-quality outputs
  • Strong academic background
