Right-hand to MD Netherlands and fast-track into Leadership role
We used to call this role Chief-of-Staff. Today, we call it Business Planning & Transformation Lead—because this isn’t just about supporting leadership. It’s about becoming leadership!
Whether you've built your foundation at a top-tier strategy consultancy or have combined consulting with in-house experience, this role offers the ideal next step to fast-track your path toward executive leadership. Based in Amsterdam and reporting directly to the Managing Director of the Netherlands, you will play a central role in a successful, fast-growing organization — with significant exposure and scope, and a clear plan to evolve into a key leadership position within 12 months.
You’ll work shoulder-closely with senior leaders across the country, cluster, and Group level - owning critical projects, driving transformation, and helping to shape the strategic future of the business. This is not a behind-the-scenes position; it’s a front-row seat to business leadership, with clear progression toward leadership and Management team roles. The path is proven – nearly 90% of our previous Business Planning & Transformation Leads (formerly named Chief-of-Staff) were promoted within two years, many stepping into leadership roles within a year.
It is more than a support role—it’s a pathway to leadership!
