Join us and start to build an extraordinary career. We're changing the way the world thinks about strategy and how it's done. We're looking for outstanding undergraduates, who will join an internship programme designed to develop deep and well-rounded core consulting skills. You'll focus on both C-suite Corporate Strategy work and M&A Strategy, and progress quickly in a high-growth, industry-changing organisation.

We look for a rare combination of razor-sharp intellectual ability, commercial awareness, analytical skills, flexibility, teamwork and the confidence and credibility to present your opinions to senior clients.

You'll need:
  • To be on track for or have a minimum 2.1 undergraduate degree expected from any discipline
  • Business work experience and/or internships are desirable
  • International experience acquired through internships or study abroad is desirable
  • Leadership roles and extracurricular activities such as voluntary work, sporting attainment, musical accomplishment and entrepreneurial interests
  • Effectiveness in the use of computer tools, e.g. Excel and PowerPoint are desirable
  • Business-level fluency in English
  • Additional languages desirable

Our two strategy consulting teams work closely together and do similar work.
