What you can expect

We have been growing year-on-year and are always looking for the brightest and best to strengthen our team. We recruit throughout the year and we offer a meritocratic, non-hierarchal, non-political work environment where you are judged solely on your results and your contribution to our clients.

We pride ourselves on our personal treatment of our new consultants. From day one you will be given an active role to play on our projects. The learning curve is steep but you will be supported and mentored to ensure you can achieve your full potential.

Our whole model is geared around giving responsibility early to promising talent to allow you to excel in natural areas of strength and work on weaker aspects.

We are currently recruiting at graduate and experienced levels

What we look for

Requirements

We have the same baseline academic requirement for all our recruits – a First Class or 2.1 degree in a quantitative subject (Engineering, Physics and Mathematics) from a top university. We also look for a number of personal qualities:

Qualities we value

Leadership and team work

  • Team work is core to every project – early on you will be expected to manage people and drive work forward

Communication

  • Effective communication up and down the chain is key to a project’s success

Ability to identify and summarize key themes

  • There are many elements to a project, so being able to pull them all together in a logical way that is easy to understand is crucial

Flexible learning

  • A lot of consultant skills are learned “on the job” and you have to be able to absorb and act on what you are being taught quickly

Intellect

  • We pride ourselves on very high quality quantitative, intelligent, useful work, and need people who can deliver this

Handling Ambiguity

  • Real world business problems can be complex and ambiguous – as consultants we need to be able to deal with non clear-cut questions

Passion

  • We work hard and progress fast, so want people who are highly motivated and excited by the rate at which you are given extra responsibility

Integrity

  • Trust of the client is key in consulting – this is delivered right the way from associate consultants to project managers

Discipline

  • We work to tight schedules, so understanding priorities and focusing on delivering value to the client is key

Application process

Whilst we value academic ability, our application process is geared around understanding much more about you than simply grades. The process aims to assess how closely you align with our company culture and team, your ability to breakdown a complex problem and present it clearly and concisely, as well as your ability to answer questions and take on feedback. The majority of this is done by setting you a task which mimics an element of a typical consulting project and puts you in a practical consulting environment.

First Round

  • The first step is an initial interview with one of our consultants. The key objective of this is for us to assess whether you are aligned with our culture and will fit with the team. However, it is also an opportunity for you to find out more about us, what we do and whether you would enjoy working with us.

Second Round

  • We will give you a practical case study.  The aim of this is to see how you are able to break down a complex situation and how you are able to communicate your process and findings.

The process is designed to be personal and allow both sides to get to know the other and their expectations.

If you have the requisite qualifications and believe that you possess the skills, drive and commitment required for a career with us, please apply initially by sending us a CV and covering letter detailing why you believe you would be a good fit for our organization via e-mail to This email address is being protected from spambots.
