About the role
As a Senior Consultant – Manufacturing, you will make an impact by supporting high‑profile transformation programmes across Manufacturing, Supply Chain, B2B Commerce, and Operations. You will work at the intersection of business and technology, helping industrial clients modernise their operating models, deploy digital platforms, improve service levels, and reduce operational costs. You will be a valued member of Cognizant Consulting’s Manufacturing practice, working closely with client stakeholders and cross‑functional delivery teams.
In this role, you will:
- Lead and support discovery and advisory engagements, conducting workshops with business and technology stakeholders to capture requirements and assess current‑state processes
- Analyse operational processes and benchmark performance against industry best practices, supporting the design of future‑state operating models
- Collaborate with technical teams to shape solution designs across enterprise platforms, contributing to configuration, prototyping, and integration planning
- Support testing, deployment, and user adoption, including test scenario creation, defect tracking, and end‑user training
- Contribute to value realisation and continuous improvement, developing business cases, monitoring KPIs, and identifying optimisation opportunities
Work model
We strive to provide flexibility wherever possible. Based on this role’s business requirements, this is a hybrid position requiring time in a client or Cognizant office in London.
The working arrangements for this role are accurate as of the date of posting and may change based on project and client requirements. We will always be clear about role expectations.
What you must have to be considered:
- Experience in Manufacturing, Supply Chain, B2B Commerce, or Operations, within consulting or industry environments
- Familiarity with enterprise platforms such as SAP, Salesforce, ServiceNow, or Microsoft Dynamics, and how they are applied in manufacturing contexts
- Strong problem‑solving and advisory skills, with the ability to translate business needs into structured outputs
- Proven ability to collaborate effectively with cross‑functional and client teams
- Hands‑on experience working in Agile delivery environments
These will help you succeed:
- Exposure to digital transformation programmes within manufacturing or industrial organisations
- Experience supporting process design, data mapping, and system integration initiatives
- Agile Product Owner or Scrum Master certifications
- Strong communication and facilitation skills, including workshop leadership
- A continuous‑improvement mindset and interest in thought leadership and innovation
We’re excited to meet people who thrive in collaborative environments, enjoy solving complex operational challenges, and are motivated to help manufacturing clients transform how they operate. Don’t hesitate to apply—even if you meet most, but not all, of the requirements.
