Our Infrastructure Advisory Group (IAG) advises major public and private sector infrastructure and asset-intensive organisations across all sectors, including Natural Resources, Energy, Power, Utilities, Transport, Oil and Gas, Defence, Health and Education. We are strengthening our Strategic Delivery Partner capability to meet increasing demand from these organisations in support for how to use data, analytics and technology to unlock value from their assets and infrastructure. This is a fast-growing area offering exciting opportunities, building upon our global capabilities in Infrastructure, Asset Management and Data Analytics. We are seeking an ambitious and innovative professional who is passionate about infrastructure and technology, with the skills and desire to combine the two to drive improvements for our clients.



The next decade will see unprecedented growth across infrastructure, power and utilities. In parallel, these industries have significant delivery and operations challenges including pace of delivery, cost escalations, supply chain issues and skills shortages.

Without good partners to aid delivery, our clients are at risk of failing to deliver, with potential regulatory penalties that could wipe out shareholder returns and damage reputation. Clients need support in navigating these complex challenges, transforming their organisations, digitising their operations and driving efficiency.
