Asset‑intensive organisations are under increasing pressure to improve the performance of their operational technology and asset systems, driven by rising customer and regulatory expectations and the growing complexity of digitally enabled infrastructure. Many are at different stages of asset‑management maturity, from establishing foundational practices to pushing the boundaries of innovation. PA helps clients navigate this challenge by strengthening their asset‑management capabilities, modernising lifecycle approaches, and delivering measurable improvements across cost, risk and service performance, creating exciting, varied work for consultants at the intersection of OT, asset management and transformation.

Please be aware that some of our UK roles at PA Consulting require a UK security clearance.
All PA people are required to undergo background checks and to achieve the Baseline Personnel Security Standard however, some UK roles also require higher levels of National Security Vetting, where applicants must have at least 5 years of continuous residency in the UK.
We therefore ask that you only apply if you meet the residency requirements (i.e. you are a British citizen or have been resident in the UK for the past 5 years), as this is the prerequisite for a security clearance. If you're unsure about your eligibility, we encourage you to review the UK Government’s guidance on security vetting before applying.
