Driving lasting impact and building long term capabilities with our clients is not easy work. You are the kind of person who thrives in a high performance/high reward culture - doing hard things, picking yourself up when you stumble, and having the resilience to try another way forward.
In return for your drive, determination, and curiosity, we'll provide the resources, mentorship, and opportunities you need to become a stronger leader faster than you ever thought possible. Your colleagues-at all levels-will invest deeply in your development, just as much as they invest in delivering exceptional results for clients. Every day, you'll receive apprenticeship, coaching, and exposure that will accelerate your growth in ways you won't find anywhere else.
When you join us, you will have:
You'll shape transformation governance which includes design and operationalize Transformation Offices, defining structure, governance, and performance cadence to drive accountability and impact. You'll lead workstreams end to end, taking full ownership of delivery across defined workstreams, from design to measurable impact. You'll translate strategy into execution including turning strategic ambitions into concrete initiatives, milestones, and KPIs that drive focus and accountability.
You'll unlock value at scale including identifying and delivering key performance levers (for e.g., across cost, productivity, procurement, working capital, and growth) to strengthen EBITDA and financial performance. You'll also redesign how organizations work including implementing new operating models, governance systems, and performance management routines that embed sustained impact.
You'll mobilize leadership and teams including coaching executives, enabling ownership, and building transformation capabilities across client organizations to ensure change endures. Finally, you'll collaborate across McKinsey; working closely with strategists, functional, and digital experts to connect insight with execution and deliver tangible business outcomes.
You'll be based in London, with hybrid flexibility and travel as required. Engagement rhythm is typically, Monday -Thursday on site or hybrid; Friday more focused on firm building and development. The team model consists of small, high trust teams (3-5 colleagues) integrated with McKinsey partners and experts.
