General Consulting
General Consulting
When you join the Bain consulting team, you’ll work on transformative challenges with clients that span industries and the globe. You will be part of a culture that is distinctly supportive in an environment where you will be challenged, mentored, and given opportunities to realize your ambition. Bring your unique perspective and skills to a company where you’re encouraged to be more you – that journey begins here, at Bain.
Work with leading brands
Whether you are interested in consumer technology, finance, transportation, healthcare, or energy, chances are, you already know our work.
Consult the c-suite
You’ll interface with executives and build a community that transcends your time at Bain.
Be creative and work with data
Bain is powered by people and data, and you’ll have access to a rich variety of both, including a vast proprietary knowledge base and software tools.
Quickly develop expertise
Use a variety of methods to study clients' customers, competitors, suppliers, and employers to make strategic recommendations.
Learn to lead
Gather the right team of cross functional experts to answer questions, build recommendations, and work as one team.
Pay it forward
At every stage of this career, you’ll mentor those more junior than yourself.
Here, you will achieve great things
In this role, you’ll learn a polished process and toolkit that allow you to advise innovative companies on some of their most difficult challenges. You’ll be staffed on client project case teams that across industries and capabilities, your colleagues will span the globe, and you’ll get to travel as your interests permit. Your projects will range from marketing optimizations to helping leading companies launch new businesses or convert to clean energy.
And because we work out of fewer, bigger home offices with a strong apprenticeship model, you’ll get to learn from people at the top of their field—including partners, former executives, and experts. In time, you’ll train the next generation, and at every step, people will have your back. Working here, you really feel that.
We look for individuals that are intellectual, curious, analytical, and creative, who love solving problems and are able to lead. Beyond that, there’s no standard set of experiences or skills that make someone a qualified consultant.
