Vacancy: Senior Corporate Strategy Consultant

The Senior Corporate Strategy Consultant will shape the strategic direction of Triodos Bank, acting as a key link between the Executive Board and the wider organization. This highly visible role (equivalent to a Senior Manager or Director in most consulting firms) involves defining long-term priorities, supporting major decisions, and helping translate strategy into concrete transformation across the bank. Operating within a flat organizational structure and reporting to Eliza Zisopulu, Group Director Corporate Development, the Senior Consultant is positioned as a peer to senior team members and acts as a trusted advisor at the heart of the organization's mission-led evolution.

This is not a conventional consulting role. It's a strategic and transformational hybrid, designed for a candidate who thrives in both conceptual thinking and real-world execution. From shaping business plans and steering operating model changes to embedding transformation logic into how Triodos evolves, this is a role where vision and delivery go hand in hand. The Senior Consultant will contribute to high-impact initiatives, ranging from business model transformation to cost optimization, often in close collaboration with the Transformation Office. Whether analyzing cost structures or building business cases for future market plays, they will operate as both strategist and enabler.

The ideal candidate is sharp, grounded, and mission-driven. They are intellectually curious, commercial, and thrive in complex, fast-moving environments. Entrepreneurial by nature, they take ownership, work independently, and seamlessly convert ideas into action. The candidate knows how to partner with senior stakeholders, navigate ambiguity, and stay focused under pressure. Pragmatic and collaborative, they're quick to connect the dots - and people. They bring structure without rigidity and are deeply aligned with Triodos' mission to balance impact, risk, and return.

"With a new CEO in place and a Chief Transformation Officer joining soon, this is an exciting moment to join Triodos. This role isn't just about strategy - it's about purpose. The right candidate will bring both head and heart to the table. It's a unique opportunity to step into a senior, high-trust position with real influence over the bank's direction." - Eliza Zisopulu, Group Director Corporate Development

Triodos value-based culture combines strategic challenges with a deep commitment to meaningful impact. Based in Driebergen-Rijsenburg, the Netherlands, the Senior Consultant will join a small, high-impact team working at the heart of the bank's transformation, operating from the company's award-winning, sustainably designed office set in a beautiful, green landscape. With direct access to the Executive Board and exposure to cross-bank initiatives, this role offers a rare chance to make a mark in an organization known for putting values before profit. It's an ideal fit for a strategic thinker with a transformation mindset and a background in banking and corporate strategy or management consulting.
