Assignment Details

The Associate will work as an integral member of the management consulting team over the next 3 to 6 months. As a part of the consulting practice, the successful candidate will be working on challenging client assignments, which would be critical to the client’s business. Financial modeling and structured problem solving approach would be required on a day to day basis. In terms of exposure, the role would provide a chance to directly interact with C level executives and other key stakeholders of businesses across multiple sectors.

The successful candidate would at times program manage the engagements independently with little involvement of engagement managers/ partners.

Since the firm is small and is growing rapidly, this is a great opportunity to work directly with the partners and learn important business skills in a demanding, yet extremely rewarding consulting career.

The candidate should also possess excellent written and oral communication skills. Most importantly, he/she must be able to deal with fair amount of ambiguity in structuring and solving complex, unfamiliar problems. He/she should have demonstrable areas of leadership skills. Candidate should have the ability to independently take decision during projects and should have exhibited the same during his previous work.

Only candidates possessing an MBA from IIM-A, IIM-B, IIM-C, IIM-K, IIM-L, IIM-I, XLRI, ISB and top international B-schools may apply. Desired experience level is 2-3 years post MBA in consulting (and currently freelancing).
