Why this role?

Our sector is facing era-defining challenges and requires inspirational leaders who engage our clients to create the transformational solutions to their most pressing issues. The challenges have never been greater, expectations from consumers and regulators have never been higher, and the opportunities to deliver change successfully have never been more exciting.

As a result, we have ongoing significant increase in demand.

Capgemini brings to bear vast utilities experience, a strong business improvement skillset, business change capability, an understanding of technology and a highly collaborative approach.

Business development – utilising a combination of the organisation’s broader pre-existing relationships, company relationships and your own network, you’ll be generating c.4m of consulting revenues as part of larger overall deals. A track record in delivering growth within this sector. Experience within Consulting within the Utilities and Energy sector. The ability to be successful in a matrixed organisation, and to enlist support and commitment from peers in selling consulting solutions within the Utilities Sector. Consultative sales experience.

Why Capgemini is unique

At Capgemini we don’t just believe in Diversity & Inclusion, we actively go out to making it a working reality. Driven by our core values and Active Inclusion Campaign, we build environments where you can bring you whole self to work.

Through our New Normal campaign, we are looking to embed hybrid working in all that we do and make flexible working arrangements the day-to-day reality for our people. All UK employees are eligible to request flexible working arrangements.

Employee wellbeing is vitally important to us as an organisation. We see a healthy and happy workforce a critical component for us to achieve our organisational ambitions. To help support wellbeing we have trained ‘Mental Health Champions’ across each of our business areas. We have also invested in wellbeing apps such as Thrive and Peppy.

Some of our consultants even have the chance to go to Les Fontaine (near Paris, France), where we host a conference. Outside of dedicated training, everyone makes time to help and support one another - collaboration is encouraged across all of our teams.

CSR:

We’re also focused on using tech to have a positive social impact. So, we’re working to reduce our own carbon footprint and improve everyone’s access to a digital world. It’s something we’re really serious about. In fact, we were even named as one of the world’s most ethical companies by the Ethisphere Institute for the 10th year. When you join Capgemini, you’ll join a team that does the right thing.

Whilst you will have London, Manchester or Glasgow as an office base location, you must be fully flexible in terms of assignment location, as these roles may involve periods of time away from home at short notice.
