Managed Solutions

Derwent Managed Solutions delivers the end-to-end people layer required to execute on transformation agendas.

By providing transformation execution-as-a-service, we leverage and mobilise elite advisors and subject matter experts across a range of functional and technical disciplines required to execute major change programs across digital and technology, project and transformation solutions.

Managed Solutions moves beyond a single executive placement and provides purpose-fit teams of specialists to manage and deliver programs of work, from start to finish. In practice, this often means change, transformation or modernisation initiatives – for example, a technology upgrade, a regulatory response, or a redesign of how a part of the business operates.

What sets this apart is flexibility. We can stand up an entire delivery team or provide pinpoint augmentation to fill specific gaps in a project – roles that sit outside business-as-usual and require the kind of senior, trusted talent Derwent can access quickly.

Where a program calls for permanent or fractional leadership alongside the delivery team, Managed Solutions draws directly on Derwent's Executive Search and Industry practices, so a client's full leadership and delivery needs are met through one coordinated partner, backed by the same market access and relationships.

Our People

As an end-to-end delivery partner, we advise on the right team shape and capability mix for each program and manage contractor and program administration for the life of the engagement.

Our talent pool is not assembled to order – it is curated ahead of demand, with particular depth across private equity, financial services, and embedded digital and technology industries. Our vast network includes practitioners who have delivered transformation and technology programs inside PE-backed portfolio companies, alongside specialists with financial services domain knowledge and technical depth across digital and data disciplines. We also draw on technology partners and alliances to extend bench strength further, giving Managed Solutions reach beyond what any single firm could hold on its own.

Derwent's Managed Solutions deploys teams across: Transformation Office, Integration and Programme Delivery, Cyber and Security Uplift, AI and Data Transformation.
