Lead CX & Digital Transformation Consultant

We Elevate. Digitally. As a Lead CX & Digital Transformation Consultant, you play a dual role at the heart of SQLI Consulting: you help clients pull ahead of their competitors through ambitious transformation programmes, and you help SQLI win against the competition by building the strategies that land new business.
