Role Overview:

Capgemini Invent's Energy Transition and Utilities sector is the largest in our private portfolio, holding a leading brand position across all five subsectors (Nuclear, Water, Networks, Energy Retail, and Energy Transition). You will engage in high-profile, impactful projects that assist our clients in delivering scalable energy infrastructure to facilitate the UK's transition to a low-carbon, sustainable future.

As part of our ongoing expansion, we are seeking an experienced senior leader with a background in asset-intensive industries, a robust business improvement skill set, and an understanding of how digitizing core asset management processes can minimize the total cost of ownership of major infrastructure assets while fulfilling shareholder commitments. You will collaborate with a diverse team of engineers, creative designers, business consultants, industry experts, and technology specialists to help lead and grow a market-leading business.

We work in partnership with clients at all organizational levels and across all stages of the asset lifecycle to help them establish the essential foundations and capabilities necessary for successful capital project and asset operations. Starting with the end goal in mind, we combine deep industry insights with emerging technologies and methodologies to assist our clients in creating a digital workforce and more integrated operational approaches. We move swiftly from 'idea to action,' building confidence throughout the digital journey to help our clients successfully deliver critical energy infrastructure.

The Work:

Regardless of the project or client, your contributions will have a significant impact on society, businesses, and individuals. This work is both rewarding and diverse. You may engage in a wide variety of projects (some larger than others), allowing you to gain extensive experience in a short period.

Why This Role?

The energy sector is undergoing the most significant transformation in a generation to meet the demands of a low-carbon future. Organizations across the UK are investing substantial resources in operational and capital improvements, as well as digital transformation initiatives to fulfill these commitments. Given the scale of investment and the urgency to implement these capital enhancements, there is a strong emphasis from regulators, investors, and companies alike to enhance confidence and expedite the delivery of these programs on time, within budget, and with quality, safely.

Consequently, we are witnessing a notable increase in demand for our teams already collaborating with major utility organizations. We have established a successful track record of identifying, designing, and delivering cutting-edge enterprise-wide digital transformations that are adopted and integrated into our clients' operations, and we are looking to further strengthen our teams. Capgemini leverages extensive energy and utilities experience, a strong business improvement skill set, change management capabilities, technological understanding, and a highly collaborative approach.

As an Asset Management Consultant, you will assist business leaders and their teams at all organizational levels in shaping and driving their transformation journeys. We seek individuals who can serve as trusted partners, helping our clients enhance asset availability and reduce the total cost of their assets. The solutions we provide align strategic objectives with the tangible outcomes expected by shareholders. We bring this to life through the establishment of future organizations, new operational methodologies enabled by emerging technology and data.

You will support our clients in designing and developing solutions that digitize and optimize processes across the value chain, from engineering design to successful commissioning and handover to asset operations.
