About the job

Consulting Director (Senior Vice President) - Logistics & Transportation (Performance Strategy & Transformation)

Location: UK (Hybrid) | Travel: Required (UK & International)

We're proud to be partnering on an exclusive basis with our client a high-growth, global advisory firm supporting organisations across the logistics, transport, and infrastructure sectors during periods of complex change, performance pressure, and transformation.

This is a rare opportunity to join a specialist team operating at the sharp end of industry delivering hands-on solutions that drive measurable operational and financial impact.

The Opportunity

You'll work directly with senior executives, PE-backed businesses, and leadership teams to:

  • Diagnose operational and financial performance challenges
  • Design and implement end-to-end transformation programmes
  • Improve supply chain, transport, and infrastructure performance
  • Support businesses through growth, restructuring, and turnaround scenarios

This is not purely advisory - delivery and execution are critical. You'll be embedded in client environments where outcomes and tangible delivery really matter.

What Makes This Role Different

  • Immediate impact - projects where your work directly influences business performance
  • Breadth of exposure - from high-performing organisations to under performing or distressed environments
  • Hands-on delivery - beyond strategy into implementation
  • High-calibre peer group - working alongside some of the most talented operators and advisor's in the consultancy world

Essential Background Experience

To be considered, candidates must demonstrate a proven combination of both:

✅ Senior-level logistics / transport industry experience

AND

✅ Management consulting experience (strategy, transformation, Insolvency, and or restructuring)

Candidates without both elements cannot be considered.

Key Experience Areas

  • Supply chain and transport optimisation
  • Target operating model design / organisational transformation
  • Operational improvement and cost reduction programmes
  • Private equity life-cycle exposure (diligence, value creation, exit)
  • Multi-work-stream project leadership in complex environments

What You'll Bring

  • Strong analytical thinking and commercial judgement
  • Financial literacy with an ability to interpret and influence performance
  • Credibility with senior stakeholders (C-suite / investors)
  • A track record of delivering implementation-led outcomes
  • Excellent communication and executive and board level presentation skills
  • Passion for the logistics and transportation sector

Additional Requirements

  • Degree-level education (MBA or Master's advantageous)
  • Flexibility to travel, sometimes at short notice
  • Comfortable working across both client site and remote environments
  • Fluency in English (additional languages advantageous)

Why Explore This?

  • Work on high-impact assignments where results are visible
  • Exposure to some of the most complex challenges in the sector
  • Strong platform for career acceleration within a growing practice
  • Competitive reward and benefits package

Blue Arrow is proud to be a Disability Confident Employer and is committed to helping find great work opportunities for great people.
