Ready to snag that top spot? The Financial Times is back with its ninth annual ranking of the UK's Leading Management Consultants! Partnership is on point with Statista, ready to help you shine among your peers in the Florida sun.

Things are looking a bit rough in the consulting world these days. Public sector clients are tightening their purse strings, while private sector clients are navigating a bumpy economic road. And let's not forget about the looming shift to AI - it's an exciting opportunity, but also raises questions about the industry's future.

Whether you're tackling a company restructuring or guiding them through the next wave of automation, finding the right consultants with the perfect specialties is crucial for any competitive organization. So, we're here to help! The FT is all set to ID those consultancies that are most admired by their fellow experts and clients in different sectors.

Here's how we roll:

  1. An open survey of management consultants' opinions of their peers. Any consultancy big guns can hop in, starting today!
  2. An open survey of clients of management consultancies, also starting today. Any client who's worked with a consultancy in the last four years can give it a go!
  3. A confidential survey of clients of management consultancies, recruited by Statista.

execs at consultancies who want to participate in the first survey can sign up for the peer group survey here. Clients who've worked with a consultancy in the past four years can also sign up for the client survey here. After registering, Statista will send a personalized survey link right to your inbox. By participating, you get to judge the consultancies you've worked with, boosting the number of consultancies that make the cut!

Registration for these two open surveys runs from June 16 to August 15, 2025. It's free and won't take up much of your time. Plus, there are no obligations after completion, and responses remain anonymous. Results will be gathered and analyzed by Statista.

For the confidential survey, Statista will recruit around 1,000 senior executives who have previously used the services of management consultancies during September. You'll be contacted through an online access panel to ensure independence.

Consultancies will be evaluated across 16 sectors and 15 different types of work. Whether you're a standalone consultancy, the advisory arm of an auditing and accountancy firm, or a consultancy division of a tech company, you could be in the running! The consultancies under the microscope will have no input in this process. So, if you've got questions, shoot an email to Statista at [email protected]!

  1. In the rapidly evolving business landscape, incorporating innovative technology and financial strategies is paramount for consultancies, as they strive to remain competitive in guiding their clients through restructuring, automation, and other technological transitions.
  2. The Financial Times' upcoming ranking of the UK's Leading Management Consultants will take into account various sectors and specialties, highlighting those consultancies that effectively leverage technology, finance, and strategic planning to generate lasting success for their clients.
