You will work directly with senior clients on high-impact strategic challenges from day one. You'll operate at the centre of complex decision-making, helping leadership teams define priorities, test strategic options, and move from insight to action.

You will apply structured thinking, analytical rigour, and commercial judgement to a wide range of engagements. This includes researching organisations and markets, forming and testing hypotheses, translating data into clear insights, and shaping recommendations that stand up at board and executive level. Beyond analysis, you will support clients in turning strategy into execution, helping manage delivery and drive real change.

The role comes with early responsibility in a demanding, collaborative environment. You will be expected to lead workstreams, contribute confidently in senior discussions, and mentor junior colleagues, while continuing to develop your own consulting and leadership capability. The learning curve is steep, expectations are high, and the exposure is significant, suited to individuals motivated by solving difficult problems, working at pace, and building a long-term career in consulting.
