WHAT MAKES US A GREAT PLACE TO WORK

We are proud to be consistently recognized as one of the world’s best places to work. We are currently the top ranked consulting firm on Glassdoor’s Best Places to Work list and have earned the #1 overall spot a record seven times. Extraordinary teams are at the heart of our business strategy, but these don’t happen by chance. They require intentional focus on bringing together a broad set of backgrounds, cultures, experiences, perspectives, and skills in a supportive and inclusive work environment. We hire people with exceptional talent and create an environment in which every individual can thrive professionally and personally. 

WHO YOU’LL WORK WITH

You’ll join the Product, Practice and Knowledge (PPK) department as part of the Knowledge Management team and you’ll work with a variety of different Practices at Bain, broadening your skillset and leveraging industry knowledge across various industries and capabilities.

“Practices” are how we group and organize our solutions and products based on our clients’ industry or business function. They’re integral to how we win and deliver results to our clients and are a key strategic priority within our firm. 

The Consumer Products Practice is a global group that supports all major consumer goods categories like Food, Beverages, Beauty and Personal Care, Durables and Recreational products.  Along with being one of the flagship industry practices at Bain, this practice is recognized within the firm as a passionate, energetic and innovative team.

The Knowledge Management (KM) team plays a vital role in leveraging the expertise of our consulting staff, enabling us to achieve outstanding results for our clients. The Senior Specialist supports this effort by engaging with client case teams at both the start and conclusion of cases, addressing questions with Bain’s internal knowledge and capturing new insights gained during the process. They also manage existing knowledge, and pinpoint gaps to be addressed by future client case teams.
