Diversity of experience
"At Bain I have gained invaluable exposure across numerous industries and capabilities. I have worked across alcoholic beverages, non-for profit, financial services, telecommunications, private equity, retail, and media companies. Additionally I have gained experienced across a number of the Bain capabilities such as brand strategy, merger due diligence, organisation optimisation, cost reduction, business unit growth strategy, and sales & channel strategy."
Choosing Bain
"One of the key reasons that I chose Bain over other career options was the firm's commitment to work-life balance. A lot of firms talk about work-life balance however I have found that Bain has numerous policies and procedures in place to ensure that I work sustainable hours so that I can maintain an active lifestyle in addition to my career."
Working with clients
"One of the most exciting aspects of working at Bain is being involved in truly amazing results stories for out clients. It is very rewarding to help clients view their business in a different perspective and then have them actually implement your recommendations to deliver improved performance. On my previous case we convinced the senior management team to restructure the workflow between and within teams which has since delivered a 20% improvement in divisional profitability."
An opportunity to learn
"Bain has a real commitment to providing world class training. In addition to continual "on the job" training, I attend a monthly training session within the Sydney office and generally attend a global training program each year. The most recent training program I attended was actually in Cancun Mexico whereby over 80 other SACs from around the work came together for a 1 week training program."
