Connect to your opportunity
SRTA is investing in a significant transformation agenda across AI, delivery transformation, systems, location strategy, monetisation and new ways of working. We are looking for two experienced Senior Managers / Assistant Directors from SRTA to be embedded in the business and help turn that ambition into practical, people-centred change that lands in day-to-day work.
These roles will sit close to priority business areas (one in M&A and one across RFR/FFC), working with L3 leaders, partners, directors, programme teams and local champions to translate central plans into clear local action. The focus is simple: help teams understand what is changing, why it matters, what they need to do differently, and how to adopt new tools, processes and behaviours with confidence.
You will bring structure, energy and pace to complex change. The role will suit someone who understands how the business works, can build trusted relationships quickly, and is comfortable moving between strategy, practical delivery and hands-on support.

Design and deliver targeted interventions that help colleagues use new tools and ways of working confidently.
-
Partner with communications, learning, product, systems, operations and delivery teams so activity is joined up.

Help teams move from awareness to sustained use, with reinforcement built into team routines and leadership cadences.

Track readiness, adoption, engagement, risks and barriers within aligned business areas.

Use data, stakeholder feedback and local insight to identify where further support or intervention is needed.

Personal independence
Regulation and controls are standard practice in our industry and Deloitte is no exception. These controls provide important legal protection for both you and the firm. We are subject to a number of audit regulations, one of which requires that certain colleagues abide by specific personal independence constraints (e.g., in relation to any financial interests and employment relationships). This can mean that you and your "Immediate Family Members" are not permitted to hold certain financial interests (shares, funds, bonds etc.) with audit clients of the firm, and also prohibitions on certain employment relationships (e.g., you are not permitted to hold a secondary employment role with SEC audit clients of the firm whilst being employed by the firm). The recruitment team will provide further detail as you progress through the recruitment process or you can contact the Independence team upon request.
