Consultancy.uk launches Top Consulting Firms in the UK 2024

Global professional services industry platform Consultancy.org has launched its 2024 edition of ‘Top Consulting Firms in the UK’. More than 1,400 firms were assessed for the second edition of the ranking.

The UK economy is home to thousands of consulting firms, from the world’s best known brands to boutiques and small niche players. With so many consultancies active in the market, it can be difficult for organisations looking for external expertise – or prospective employees looking for a new challenge – to determine which firm is right for them.

To help showcase the industry’s leading players, Consultancy.org compiles its ‘Top Consulting Firms in the UK’ guide.

Developed by the Consultancy.uk team, the ranking examined more than 1,400 consulting firms active across Britain, and presents the leading consultancies across more than 60 areas of expertise and industry verticals.

Commenting on the launch, Consultancy.uk Chief Editor Jack Brinded said, “This guide to the UK’s consulting industry provides a comprehensive insight into leading advisory brands across every sector – from financial services, to the public sector, healthcare, sport, media and energy – as well as across a diversity of practice areas including strategy, digital, management, and sustainability. The list helps industry watchers identify the absolute cream of the crop, as well as to pick out the potential rising stars of tomorrow.”

The 2024 ranking showcases firms which have built a reputation as the most trusted, expert and influential providers in the country. The leading firms are sorted across five levels: Diamond, Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze.

To distinguish the best from the rest, Consultancy.org deployed a unique methodology, combining survey feedback from clients and consultants via Consultancy.uk’s online survey tool and sourced surveys, with an holistic assessment of capabilities and track record. The inclusive approach means that there is no opt-in needed for firms to appear in the list, and there are also no fees across the entire process, from entry to awards.

The capabilities assessment was based on factors including reputation, projects, analyst benchmarks, industry recognitions, thought leadership, and visitor insights on Consultancy.uk.

Larry Zeenny, CEO of Consultancy.org, stated, “The ‘Top Consulting Firms in the UK’ guide provides a unique approach to finding out which firms are the key players in each area of expertise. Alongside many of the consulting market’s most famous names, the ranking also includes many mid-market and SME competitors, showing they can provide top-tier services too.”
