We believe that in today’s world, to solve complex business issues and to spark real change, you need to think and work differently. Traditional transformation approaches often don’t take clients far enough and aren’t delivered quickly enough. We believe that the key to unlock this problem is outcome-focussed innovation and collaboration.

The Ignition Team delivers powerful and immersive experiences enabled by bespoke Ignition spaces: the Discovery & Insights Centre, the Lab, the U Collaborate suite and our Sprint rooms. These experiences drive insight, acceleration, genuine transformation breakthroughs and ultimately, performance.

In the summer of 2020, we opened the UK’s first Ignition Centre, transforming the way we work with our clients and each other by combining specialist ways of working with dynamic, collaborative physical, virtual and hybrid environments.  Ignition not only helps us to deliver what clients need today, it also brings our digital expertise and content to life in new ways and enables us to develop solutions which prepare clients for a changing future.

Based on our success in London, we have expanded the UK Ignition footprint with our second Ignition centre, located in Manchester.  This role can be based in either centre, but will work across both.
