CONSULTANT (MBA) 2024 London, England
Job description
As a Consultant you will bring incisive thinking and analytical skills to a range of strategic projects. Working as a member of a project team, you will help to crack some of the most important problems facing our clients, and you will rapidly have exposure to their senior management teams. Our focus on strategy means that projects tend to be shorter (typically 3-8 weeks) than in other consultancies, and involve more time based in our offices than travelling.
Responsibilities:
Develop strategic recommendations based on a combination of third-party evidence and primary research
Synthesise quantitative and qualitative information intelligently
Drive individual workstreams to completion, either independently or managing analysts
Co-operate effectively with other team members to integrate findings from different workstreams
Translate strategy into deliverable plans
Prepare and deliver client presentations
We are looking for candidates with strong skills in several areas:
1. Problem solving: using analytical, quantitative, and creative approaches.
2. Written communication: creating clear and concise written documents and visual output
3. Personal impact and oral communication: presenting work clearly and confidently in both internal sessions and client meetings.
4. Team work: participating in teams in a collegial and collaborative manner; carrying out fair share of work; consistently add creative, insightful ideas; leading and motivating others well.
5. Client relationships & professionalism: conducting oneself in a professional manner at all times and contributing to clients' positive view of the project team and OC&C in general.
6. Firm contribution: playing an enthusiastic role in enhancing the Firm's earned reputation for high-calibre client work and in establishing the personality of the Firm and the Office.
