About The Position

At Kyndryl, we design, build, manage and modernize the mission-critical technology systems that the world depends on every day. When a bank clears payments, an airline boards a flight or a health service opens its doors, there is a good chance our systems are underneath it. We work with thousands of enterprise customers in more than 60 countries. Kyndryl Consult is the fastest-growing part of that business. What makes it different from a traditional consultancy is simple: we don't just advise. We build and we run. The recommendation and the accountability for making it work sit in the same place. The Consult Propositions & GTM team builds what Kyndryl Consult takes to market. We define the packaged consulting offers (propositions), set pricing, own the story, and equip our global community of client-facing consulting partners to sell them. This role exists to make our propositions speak a client's own industry language. You'll take our propositions and build the industry versions of them: the sector-specific problem framing, the proof, the regulatory and operational context, and the commercial shape that fits how that industry buys. You'll work through our Industry Guilds to turn practitioner knowledge into something sellable and repeatable. This is a bridging role where you sit in the portfolio strategy team, work closely with our Advisory organization, and draw on the Guilds.
