What kind of work will I be considered for?

Projects span transformation programmes, digital delivery and strategic change across a range of sectors. Engagements vary in scale and duration, but the work is substantive and requires people who can apply real judgment to complex delivery.

How does the matching process work?

When a project comes in, we match Associates based on experience, capability, specialism, and the specific context of the engagement.

Is the work full-time or part-time?

Most engagements are full time, though this varies by project. When you apply, you can indicate your availability and the type of engagements that suit your practice.

What does the application process involve?

Submitting an application is the first step. From there, we will be in touch if your experience, skills and approach align with what we are looking for. The process is thorough by design; we want the fit to be right for both sides.

How often are new projects available?

Project availability varies depending on client demand. Being part of the network means you will be considered for relevant opportunities as they arise, and we will always aim to match you to work that fits.

THE COMMUNITY

How the community works

Associates and partners work with Alirity teams, aligned to our approach and integrated into how we deliver for Alirity’s clients.

This model has shaped how we deliver since 2016, combining the consistency clients expect with the specialist depth complex projects demand.

Every engagement is shaped around what the project needs. Associates and partners are matched to their experience and the demands of delivery, brought in with full context on the client and what success looks like.

We see the community as a two-way relationship. Working with us is a chance to grow, take on meaningful work, and be part of something with lasting impact. Whether working directly with our teams or embedded within a client, the commitment to quality and shared values stays the same.

The right match

Every Associate and partner is selected based on experience, specialism and fit with the programme

Ongoing support

Direct access to Alirity's Client Partners throughout every engagement, providing a sounding board and ensuring continuity.

Aligned to our approach

Everyone in the community is immersed in our ways of working and held to the same ethical standards and delivery principles our clients expect.

What you gain from joining

This model works because it is designed around what experienced people and organisations value: work that builds reputation and impact, and connection to others who approach delivery the same way.

Delivery that develops your practice

The nature of the work means applying judgment to complex challenges across substantial engagements, building your skillset and expertise through delivery that makes a difference.

Community built on shared experience

Connecting with practitioners and organisations who bring the same depth of experience, and building relationships that extend beyond individual projects.

Access to our methods and knowledge

Associates and partners have access to a shared bank of resources, frameworks and knowledge built from years of delivery across sectors and disciplines.

A long-term partnership

We see this as an ongoing relationship, not a transactional one. As trust builds, so does the scope and ambition of what we do together.

Mitchell Davis, Associate Programme Lead

“I was fortunate to work as a change and program lead with a team of Alirity consultants in a five-month project. The result was quick, can-do problem solving, talent where it was needed and when, and an all-around pleasant care for everyone’s time and efforts. We were the team anyone would wish for with clear roles and responsibilities, a willingness to support each other and good laughs along the way. I’d love to do it again!”

JOIN THE NETWORK

Take the next step

Experienced consultants and organisations who join our community work on programmes where they are trusted to apply judgment, with teams built on shared values and a focus on outcomes that last.

Apply to join

This is hands-on work on substantial engagements where you apply your expertise to how things get delivered, not just execute what has been defined.

The right Associates and partners bring more than technical skill. They approach delivery through trust, empathy, and a genuine interest in whether organisations are stronger when the work is done. That is what we look for, and it is why we are selective about who joins. All applicants go through a screening process to ensure the fit is right for both sides before any engagement begins.

For partnership enquiries, we would welcome the conversation. Get in touch to explore how we might work together.
