The role

As a senior consultant within the Public Sector team, you work on strategic issues for ministries, executive agencies, and other public institutions. You investigate whether policy achieves its intended effects and develop strategies, scenarios, and business cases that help clients make evidence-based choices regarding, among other things, investments, priorities, organizational development, and public value.

With your strategic insight and analytical sharpness, you bring structure to complex societal issues. You translate data and financial analyses into clear advice and concrete courses of action for administrators, boards, and management teams. In doing so, you work independently on projects and sub-projects, maintain intensive contact with the client, and guide less experienced colleagues.

"The combination of complex analysis, strategic choices, and societal relevance makes this work substantively enjoyable and very varied." - Michiel, Manager KPMG S&O Public Sector

In addition to your work for clients, you contribute to building the team. You assist in writing proposals and coach consultants. You will join an ambitious and growing team working on some of the most complex organizational issues within the public sector.

What you'll do

  • Developing strategies, multi-year plans, and strategic courses of action for public organizations.
  • Exploring and elaborating strategic scenarios and translating them into concrete choices for the future.
  • Drafting, reviewing, and further developing business cases for investment, policy, and implementation issues.
  • Performing or supervising social cost-benefit analyses (SCBAs).
  • Translating data, financial insights, and analyses into clear advice, reports, and presentations.
  • Working in a complex administrative environment and connecting different substantive and administrative perspectives.
  • Independently executing substantive workflows and guiding less experienced colleagues.
