Job Description

Organisation Design - Senior Consultant/Manager
About Baringa:
We set out to build the world's most trusted consulting firm - creating lasting impact for clients and pioneering a positive, people-first way of working. We work with everyone from FTSE 100 names to bright new start-ups, in every sector.
You'll find us collaborating shoulder-to-shoulder with our clients, from the big picture right down to the detail: helping them define their strategy, deliver complex change, spot the right commercial opportunities, manage risk, or bring their purpose and sustainability goals to life. Our clients love how we get to know what makes their organisations tick - slotting seamlessly into their teams and being proudly geeky about solving their challenges.
We have hubs in Europe, the US, Asia and Australia, and we work all around the world - from a wind farm in Wyoming to a boardroom in Berlin. Find us wherever there's a challenge to be tackled and an impact to be made.
We're looking for experienced management consultants to join our growing Organisation Design capability - a core part of our Organisational Effectiveness & Agility team.
We work with organisations to redesign how they are structured, how decisions get made, and how work gets done - helping them align with strategy, reduce costs, build agility, and future-proof their workforce. Our insight-led approach is powered by our proprietary Baringa Organisation Design Framework (BODF) and tools like Orgvue, enabling us to deliver measurable outcomes across sectors including energy, government, financial services, and consumer goods.
What you will be doing
As a Senior Consultant focused on Organisation Design, you'll work across the full design lifecycle - from strategy and diagnostics through to implementation and transition. This includes:

• Shaping target operating models, organisational structures, and decision-making frameworks aligned to strategic priorities.
• Delivering organisation diagnostics using data on spans, layers, costs, and performance - and translating insights into design options.
• Facilitating co-design sessions to explore future structure scenarios, roles, and capabilities - supported by design principles and strategic trade-offs.
• Leading or supporting the development of workforce transition plans, change impact assessments, and internal OD capability uplift.
• Integrating organisation design with broader transformation programmes, workforce planning, and technology enablement.
• You'll work closely with senior stakeholders - from C-suite to HR and transformation leads - and be part of teams that leave behind capability, not just a PowerPoint deck.

Your skills and experience
You'll bring a mix of consulting capability, organisation design knowledge, and a practical mindset:

• Experience delivering or supporting organisation design and operating model projects, ideally within a consulting environment.
• Knowledge of core OD tools and methods: job architecture, spans and layers, decision rights, role design, and capability mapping.
• Understanding of OD and People Analytics technology platforms (e.g. Orgvue, Visier, Nakisa, ADO, Workday) and their role in enabling design and planning decisions.
• Comfort working with data - both qualitative and quantitative - to inform current state diagnostics and size/cost modeling.
• Ability to simplify complex problems, build relationships quickly, and navigate ambiguity with confidence and curiosity.

Bonus if you also bring:

• Exposure to transformations in regulated industries or large, matrixed organisations.
• Experience embedding governance structures to manage ongoing OD decisions and sustain performance.
• A coaching approach that builds client capability and trust throughout the engagement.

What a career at Baringa will give you
Putting People First.
Baringa is a People First company and wellbeing is at the forefront of our culture. We recognise the importance of work-life balance and flexible working and provide our staff amazing benefits. Some of these benefits include:

• Generous Annual Leave Policy: We recognise everyone needs a well-deserved break. We provide our employees with 5 weeks of annual leave, fully available at the start of each year. In addition to this, we have introduced our 5-Year Recharge benefit which allows all employees an additional 2 weeks of paid leave after 5 years continuous service.
• Flexible Working: We know that the 'ideal' work-life balance will vary from person to person and change at different stages of our working lives. To accommodate this, we have implemented a hybrid working policy and introduced more flexibility around taking unpaid leave.
• Corporate Responsibility Days: Our world is important to us, so all our employees get 3 every year to help social and environmental causes and increase our impact on the communities that mean the most to us.
• Wellbeing Fund: We want to encourage all employees to take charge and prioritise their own wellbeing. We've introduced our annual People Fund to support this by offering every individual a fund to support and manage their wellbeing through an activity of their choice.
• Career Progression: No one develops at the same pace. That's why we have quarterly rather than annual promotion reviews. We don't have any quotas: if you're ready and delivering at the right level, you'll get that promotion.
• Profit Share Scheme: All employees participate in the Baringa Group Profit Share Scheme so everyone has a stake in the company's success.

Using business as a force for good.

We report our progress publicly and ensure that we are also externally assessed and scored through organisations like CDP and EcoVadis - helping us to continually identify where we can improve.
We have a long legacy of supporting the communities in which we work, and offer a variety of ways to contribute, by putting people first and creating impact that lasts. Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) agenda is about giving back to the communities in which we live and work by sharing our skills, talent and time.
