Manager – Business Consulting | EY GDS Poland

The opportunity

EY GDS Poland is building its next generation of Business Consulting leadership. We are looking for Managers who are ready to step into a role with real commercial and delivery ownership — not just execution. Depending on your background, your domain focus will sit in one of our priority areas: Business Transformation, SAP-enabled change, AI Implementation, or market development for a specific geography. This is the role where you stop being a strong individual contributor and start being a leader who builds something.

What you’ll actually do

Demand & Business Development:

  ∙  Support and increasingly lead business development activity alongside Senior Managers and Member Firm partners

  ∙  Build your own network within EY Member Firm teams in your target market or domain

  ∙  Contribute actively to proposals, RFP responses, and client presentations - not as a support function, but as a visible participant

  ∙  Develop your market or domain knowledge to the point where you can have credible conversations with senior clients and partners independently

Competency & Offering Development:

  ∙  Contribute to the development and refinement of GDS Poland’s offering in your domain

  ∙  Build and maintain delivery assets, methodologies, and tools that raise the quality bar

  ∙  Stay current on developments in your domain and bring relevant insights to the team

People Development

  ∙  Lead and develop a small team of consultants and analysts

  ∙  Set clear expectations, provide structured feedback, and actively develop your people

  ∙  Begin building the leadership habits that will define your Senior Manager profile

Delivery Excellence

  ∙  Own delivery quality on your workstreams and engagements end to end

  ∙  Manage client relationships at working level - building trust and generating positive feedback that supports repeat business

  ∙  Proactively manage risks and escalate early - no surprises

What you bring

  ∙  7–10 years consulting experience, with at least 2–3 years at Manager level or equivalent

  ∙  Solid delivery track record in at least one domain: Business Transformation, SAP, AI-enabled change, or a related consulting area

  ∙  Early commercial exposure - you’ve been in client conversations, contributed to proposals, and understand how consulting work is won

  ∙  Familiarity with at least one key market: UK & Ireland, DACH, France, or Nordics - either through direct experience or language

  ∙  Genuine ambition to move into a senior leadership role - this is a stepping stone, not a destination

  ∙  Strong interpersonal skills - you build relationships naturally, internally and externally

  ∙  English mandatory. German, French, or another European language a strong advantage

  ∙  Poland-based. Travel expected
