Ready to explore a career path? Start your journey.

What You’ll Do:

When you are assigned to a new project, you will work alongside a consulting manager or other consulting associates. At times you may be required to undertake projects of your own.

You'll help to guide and direct the customer and affiliate stake holders in an efficient, effective manner to achieve the objectives as set for the project, within the agreed timelines and associated costs. You will enjoy interacting across a range of subject matters – where applicable - including sourcing and category management, expense management, stakeholder engagement and communication, and spend management to name but a few. 

You play a role in problem solving, identification of challenges and transforming hypotheses and conclusions into recommendations and suggestions of solutions in collaboration with consulting managers and your direct leader.

You'll work on several smaller sized engagements to begin with and as your skills and abilities develop will transition to larger sized engagements all backed up by continual training and development.

What We’re Looking For:

  • MANDATORY experience in the travel industry
  • Experience in a client facing environment would be highly desirable.
  • An ambitious consulting associate to join our delivery team based in the UK.
  • Collaborative, energetic, flexible and can-do attitude.
  • Analytically minded, understands data with ease and is comfortable in its manipulation to draw insights and conclusions.
  • Can multi-task easily and manage competing priorities.
  • Ability to solve problems with quantitative thinking and in-depth analysis.
