Project type

Organisational

Organisational projects involve shaping how organisations are structured and how they make decisions. This includes defining long-term strategy, improving how people are managed, and using data to make better workforce decisions. You find this type of work at strategy consulting firms, large companies with in-house strategy teams, and HR departments at organisations that take a data-driven approach to managing people.

In this type of project, you produce analysis that helps an organisation make better decisions about its direction or its people. That might mean evaluating a potential market entry, building a financial model to support a strategic choice, or analysing workforce data to identify patterns in retention or performance.

Background

Organisations regularly face decisions about where to invest, how to structure themselves, and how to manage their people effectively. Organisational projects provide the analysis and frameworks that support those decisions. Some projects are strategic: they help leadership understand their competitive position and choose a direction. Others are analytical: they use workforce data to identify patterns in retention, performance, or engagement.

The daily work varies by project type. On strategy projects, you analyse markets, build financial models, and develop structured arguments for senior management. On HR analytics projects, you work with employee data, build predictive models, and present findings to HR teams or leadership. In both cases, turning complex analysis into clear and actionable recommendations is central to the work.

The main tools are Excel and PowerPoint for strategy work, and Python and SQL for data-intensive HR analysis. Statistical methods are relevant for HR analytics, and financial modelling is central to strategy. The work connects to the Strategist and Data Analyst roles and appears across large organisations in any sector, as well as in the Consultancy sector.
