Damien is a manager in our Melbourne office. After completing a Science degree, Damien went on to study a doctorate in Physiology at the University of Melbourne. After a stint of lecturing he joined our Melbourne office in October of 2000.
"Working at Bain has given me a great opportunity to really stretch myself in a new environment that is a huge departure from my knowledge base in research. However, the same skills that helped me to complete a PhD - lateral thinking, communication and determination - have made the transistion to consulting a smooth one. The expectation levels are high but so is the level of support and coaching available."
"One of the advantages of joining Bain with a 'non-traditional' business background is the comprehensive and ongoing training program. Training in Boston was a particular highlight that allowed me to learn with team members from around the world. The challenges in helping our clients are often considerable as clients do not ask for the solutions to easy problems. The opportunity to work with a great bunch of people to solve these problems is both exciting and rewarding."
