Sobre esta vaga de Senior Client Solutions Consultant - Engine by Starling na Starling

Starling · Presencial · London, England, United Kingdom

At Engine by Starling, we are on a mission to find and work with leading banks all around the world who have the ambition to build rapid growth businesses, on our technology.

Engine is Starling's software-as-a-service (SaaS) business, the technology that was built to power Starling, and two years ago we split out as a separate business.

Starling has seen exceptional growth and success, and a large part of that is down to the fact that we have built our own modern technology from the ground up. This SaaS technology platform is now available to banks and financial institutions all around the world, enabling them to benefit from the innovative digital features, and efficient back-office processes that has helped achieve Starling's success.

As a company, everyone is expected to roll up their sleeves to help deliver great outcomes for our clients. We are an engineering-led company and we’re looking for people who will be excited by the potential for Engine’s technology to transform banking in different markets around the world. Our purpose is underpinned by five values: Listen, Keep It Simple, Do The Right Thing, Own It, and Aim For Greatness.

Hybrid Working

We have a Hybrid approach to working here at Engine - our preference is that you're located within a commutable distance of one of our offices so that we're able to interact and collaborate in person.

About the role

As a Senior Consultant within our Client Solutions team, you will act as a pivotal bridge between our global clients and Engine's cutting-edge SaaS platform. You will work closely with financial institutions to unpack their strategic challenges, helping them tackle complex hurdles through a technology-centred approach.

Collaborating in tandem with our Product and Engineering functions, you will design and implement robust, forward-looking solutions tailored to client needs, ensuring our partner banks unlock the full power of Engine’s modern banking technology.

In this role, you will be instrumental in guiding implementations from initial discovery through to go-live and operational handover. What you’ll get to do:

Delivery Ownership: Take responsibility for delivering multiple complex workstreams, actively representing the client’s priorities and operational needs during internal planning and decision-making forums.
Client Relationship & Discovery: Build trusted, lasting relationships across all levels of client organisations. Understand their overarching vision, day-to-day challenges, and strategic priorities, applying your deep knowledge of the Engine product suite.
Solution Design: Collaborate closely with our product teams and solution architects to design scalable solutions that meet the immediate requirements of the client whilst enhancing capabilities for future partners.
Cross-Functional Coordination: Coordinate end-to-end solution delivery alongside our Engineering teams in alignment with overall programme timelines and key milestones.
Progress & Visibility: Maintain clear reporting on workstream milestones, risks, and progress across internal and client stakeholders.
Run Transition: Support smooth programme transitions from delivery into business-as-usual (Run), sharing in-depth client context and setting the Run team up for long-term operational success.
Practice Scaling: Contribute actively to the growth and maturity of the wider Client Solutions function as Engine expands globally, sharing key learnings from implementations to help refine and establish our core delivery methodologies.

Requirements

You have experience (5-7 plus years) in client facing roles, in a consulting role, or at a technology company
You have experience in financial services and technology delivery
You have experience delivering complex programmes
You can rapidly understand client problems and present solutions in a structured and informative manner

To succeed in this role, you will bring a balanced blend of hands-on delivery expertise and consultative engagement:

Core Expertise: Demonstrated experience within Project Management and Product or Technology delivery environments (ideally across SaaS, fintech, or modern digital platforms).
Analytical & Problem-Solving Capability: A structured, methodical approach to breaking down ambiguous or complex challenges, paired with an inquisitive mindset and a genuine appreciation for the detail of how systems function.
Technical Curiosity: A strong technical aptitude and curiosity to understand modern software architecture and how technical components come together to create compelling customer propositions.
Stakeholder Engagement: Adaptable and thoughtful communication skills, with the ability to build rapport and convey technical concepts clearly across diverse audiences—from senior bank executives and consulting partners to software engineers.
Facilitation Skills: Comfortable and engaging when facilitating discovery sessions, scoping workshops, and collaborative working groups.
Autonomy & Drive: Self-motivated, proactive, and comfortable operating with high degrees of autonomy in a fast-paced, scaling environment.
Adaptable Mindset: Flexible and pragmatic in your approach to delivery, capable of pivoting between different client environments, methodologies, and project frameworks without losing attention to detail.

Sobre a Starling

Join our team

We’re on a mission to radically reshape banking – and that starts with our brilliant team. We know that our bank is only as good as the people who build it. From customer support and engineering to marketing and business development, we’re proud to bring together people of all backgrounds and experiences who love working together to solve problems.

What to expect

Creativity and collaboration

We’re growing fast – and no two days here at Starling are quite the same. We care about getting stuff done, not process, and our culture is decidedly entrepreneurial in spirit (you’ll be encouraged to pitch your ideas, however big or bold!). It’s a fast-paced, exciting and creative place to work where there’s plenty of collaboration and ownership of your own projects.

Great tech

As you’d expect from a technology company, we’ll make sure you have all the tools you need to get your job done – and that they’re the very best in the business. We work on MacBooks and you’ll receive anything else you might need on request.

An open approach

Lots of companies talk about transparency – but it’s something we really care about. We communicate and collaborate through Slack, including a channel dedicated to updates from the leadership team.

But wait... there’s more

It’s important to us there’s more to life here than just work, so get to know your colleagues at socials, cheese & wine nights or learning lunches. Enjoy fresh fruit and coffee every day, free breakfasts and Perkbox, through which we offer the Cycle to Work scheme and salary-sacrificed gym memberships. We also offer private health insurance for all employees.

We offer 33 days holiday (including public hols), plus an extra day on your birthday; you also get 16 hours of paid leave a year to do voluntary work.
