Digital Consultant

Edinburgh (Hybrid - 2 days a week in the office)

£45k - £70k DOE


Are you an experienced digital professional who enjoys turning complex challenges into practical, deliverable solutions?


This is an opportunity to join a hands-on consultancy role, working closely with clients to shape and deliver meaningful digital change. You will build trusted stakeholder relationships quickly, bring clarity to ambiguity and maintain momentum from early discovery through to delivery.


You will take a positive, solution-focused approach while remaining confident enough to challenge constructively, whether that means pushing back on scope, reconciling competing priorities or helping senior stakeholders make informed decisions.


Projects Include
  • Legacy system replacement and digital transformation
  • Discovery-led service design and digital strategy
  • Public-facing digital services
What You'll Do
  • Gather, synthesise and analyse evidence from multiple sources to identify priorities, risks and opportunities.
  • Plan and facilitate stakeholder interviews, workshops and co-design sessions.
  • Produce high-quality outputs such as user journeys, process flows, discovery reports, product backlogs, roadmaps and target operating designs.
  • Own product or service outcomes, making informed decisions on scope, priorities and trade-offs.
  • Work collaboratively across multidisciplinary teams, including user research, design, engineering, architecture and project delivery.
  • Use AI tools intelligently to accelerate analysis and consultancy activity while applying critical judgement to their outputs.
What We're Looking For
  • Hands-on experience delivering discovery and digital transformation projects within a consultancy, public-sector organisation or similarly complex environment.
  • A strong grounding in requirements gathering, user journeys, process mapping, discovery reporting and stakeholder facilitation.
  • Proven experience owning product, service or solution outcomes in a role such as Product Owner, Service Owner, Senior Business Analyst, Solutions Architect, Digital Consultant or Head of Digital/IT.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to tailor complex information for senior and non-technical audiences.
  • Strong judgement and the confidence to make prioritisation and scope decisions, challenge constructively and navigate conflicting requirements.
  • An analytical mindset, with the ability to absorb new information quickly and turn evidence into practical recommendations.
  • Enough technical fluency to engage credibly with engineering and architecture leaders on solution design and build-versus-buy decisions.
  • A proactive, delivery-focused approach and the ability to establish trust through action.


This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing organisation, with culture at the heart of the business, they are at an exciting point in their growth so offers excellent opportunities to advance your career.
