The Berkeley Partnership is a London based management consultancy that takes pride in delivering long term success for its clients. Since its formation in 1990, Berkeley has helped some of the UK’s leading businesses to develop their strategies, mobilise resources and deliver major programmes of change. Working alongside clients, Berkeley helps management to address their most complex challenges.
Berkeley has built a strong reputation, not only for meeting demanding delivery challenges and getting good results, but for being enjoyable to work with. Berkeley has long running client relationships, with over 95% of work coming as repeat business or referrals.
Berkeley helps organisations to shape and deliver significant change to their business, and supports clients across the full lifecycle of business change - from developing business strategy to implementation. Berkeley’s services encompass business strategy, IT strategy, programme management, project management and change management.
Berkeley’s approach to strategy consulting focuses on working alongside client teams - not “telling clients what their strategy should be” but ensuring success by maximising engagement and building strong ownership of the strategy with key stakeholders. Great care is taken to tailor the best approach in the belief that no two strategy exercises are the same, as different businesses invariably face different kinds of constraints, challenges and choices, influencing the best approach to be taken.

Berkeley has experience of delivering national and global programmes, with team sizes in the 100’s and budgets in £100m’s. Its consultants are all highly experienced, having spent an average of 12 years leading (or managing key elements of) large change programmes. They can quickly assess where a programme needs most support, and take the firm action needed to get it back on track.
Visit Berkeley’s project assurance diagnostic toolkit, based on deep knowledge and experience of what makes a project succeed or fail.
The nature of Berkeley’s involvement varies depending on the clients' capabilities, from an extended programme management role to simply providing a short project review. London-based consultants can provide support for just a few weeks or over a longer period, for example taking an interim position while clients find a permanent resource.
