Take the opportunities around you
You can learn and improve because of the projects you work on and the team you work with. There is always something for you to learn if you are open and proactive and these qualities will help lead to bigger projects, more impact and rapid progression.
- Curiosity - show us your curiosity. Prove you will leave no stone unturned when formulating ideas and developing skills to improve yourself.

Show the will and the skill to make a bigger impact
In supporting and partnering with our consultants, we use data, creativity and smart thinking to make a measurable impact and drive business growth. We want to see you deliver to high standards and make stuff happen.
- Resilience - you’ll need to demonstrate a will and resilience to get things done. Complex and time-sensitive problems are some of the most satisfying to solve, but they are also hard work. Tell us when you’ve done that before and we’ll listen with interest.
- Insight - if you can use data to uncover meaningful insight, we’d like to see it.
Hear and be heard
We know great ideas can come from anyone, anytime. It’s why we look for people who see the value in collaborating and thrive when working with others. We value supportive people too. We’ve always got each other’s backs.
- A supportive approach - you’ll need to be open to collaborating with clients and colleagues to discover the best solution.
- Team spirit - it’s important that you’re ready to work hard as part of a team. Doing so will allow you to form bonds that’ll help you rise to any challenge and will often develop into lasting friendships.
