Job Description

Do you have a passion for the aviation industry, and experience in strategy, digital innovation, sustainability or operational transformation within airports, airlines or other aviation stakeholders? And would you enjoy working with ambitious colleagues in a consultancy that values collaboration, learning and innovation? If so, you might be the perfect fit for our Aviation team in Utrecht.

Team Description

Our Aviation team brings together deep expertise across airports, airlines, service providers and aviation technology. With a strong understanding of how each part of the aviation value chain connects, we support clients in navigating complex challenges through a holistic, end-to-end approach.

As trusted advisors to owners, boards and management teams, we work with organisations from strategy development through to execution. Whether shaping long-term vision, driving large-scale transformations or delivering targeted improvements, we help our clients achieve exceptional results and create lasting impact across their business.

With a deep understanding of the business implications of emerging technologies, we help clients unlock new opportunities, accelerate digital transformation and strengthen their competitive position in an industry undergoing rapid and fundamental change.

Job Description

We are looking for talented and ambitious consultants, based in the Netherlands, with experience from the aviation industry to strengthen our team.

You will join both a local and a global world-class team that, together with a strong partner group, works on some of the most complex challenges in the industry.

As part of expanding our European presence within aviation, you will collaborate closely with clients and colleagues across borders. We therefore seek candidates who thrive in both national and international environments and who bring strong collaboration skills.

In this role, you will support or lead the delivery of strategic and complex consulting engagements, including managing teams and senior clients. You will also contribute to business development for both new and existing clients by supporting proposal work, sharing insights and shaping service offerings that address strategic client needs.

You will have the opportunity to build strong client relationships and act as a trusted advisor who translates complex issues into clear business opportunities and decisions.

We believe that value is created through close collaboration with our clients. You will be part of an environment that values teamwork, knowledge-sharing and continuous feedback. It is also an environment that encourages learning and upskilling - ensuring you stay current with the latest industry developments, supported by access to training and certifications.

Your employment with us will start with a thorough introduction. To support your development, you will be assigned both a line manager and a buddy who will help you prepare a development plan tailored to your skills and interests.

Qualifications

We are looking for candidates who are curious, ambitious and eager to learn. As you should expect to be managing projects with responsibility for leading other consultants, we are seeking someone with a minimum of five years' management consulting experience or equivalent industry experience.

We believe you will be a great fit if:

You have relevant experience from the aviation sector
You understand key trends in the aviation industry, such as decarbonisation, digitalisation, operational efficiency, or changing commercial models
You are methodical and analytically strong with the ability to understand and solve complex issues
You have strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to engage senior leaders and build trusted relationships
You are comfortable working in high-paced environments
You are energetic, positive and goal-oriented, with a commitment to delivering excellence
You are a strong team player who recognises that we achieve better results together
You are fluent in English, both written and spoken

We know candidates often hesitate to apply unless they meet every requirement. If this role excites you and your experience aligns with the work we do, we encourage you to apply.

If this sounds like the right challenge for you, we encourage you to apply as soon as possible. We review applications and conduct interviews on an ongoing basis.
