The Challenge

The Global Banking Group, operating in both the Retail and Wholesale markets with over 240,000 employees, were embarking on a major Organisation Simplification across their Global operation. The bank asked Q5 to be their Organisation Design partners, bringing a very experienced team to rapidly stand up an organisation-wide capability that could deliver in a short time frame, to a very high standard.

Our Approach

  • Defined a simple, consistent methodology, based on our Q5 MetroMap process and tailored to specific needs.
  • Defined and ran an Organisation Design Authority (ODA) to sign off the Target Operating Model and top-level designs across the organisation.
  • Created Design Environment ‘pods’ to support each area of the business, providing data and rigorous OD support directed to the design teams.
  • Proactively identified key Org Design opportunities for further Organisation Simplification to support the agenda (i.e. establishing Market Archetypes)

Key Outcomes

  • Top level designs delivered on time and to quality across the Bank, meeting a key target Upskilled the HR community, by providing insight and coaching to teams supporting design work
  • Developed a 3 years OD Strategy for the Bank to mature its capability and deliver the benefits from good OD
  • Delivered a pilot to overhaul the job catalogue for the Bank, resulting in a programme to align the job catalogue to the new Operating Model
  • Supported the use of new people analytics tech, by using it to provide key insights to the Annual Planning process and for Org Health evaluation

What our clients say about us

“The Q5 team had the experience of doing this work elsewhere which was invaluable in setting up the governance and the OD process. And their OD experience ensured that submitted designs were tested thoroughly and independently against the success criteria we identified. They were collaborative and a joy to work with.”
