About Us
Our aim at Oliver Wyman is simple: To
redefine what it means to be a leading
management consulting firm. We combine
deep industry knowledge with specialised
expertise in strategy, operations, risk
management, organisational transformation,
and leadership development. We are the
fastest growing consulting firm in the top 10.
Today, we employ more than 2500 staff
across 40 offices in 16 countries throughout
the world. We work alongside our clients
to develop practical solutions that deliver
real impact.
What We Are Looking For
We are seeking candidates who are
inquisitive, motivated, and have strong
analytical and quantitative skills. Clarity of
thought and expression are fundamental.
Fluency in a second language is highly
desirable (but not essential) and an interest in
international travel is a must, as our
international staffing model will take you to
many exciting locations around the world.
What We Offer
Oliver Wyman is specifically structured to
attract, retain and offer superior rewards to
outstanding people. We are distinguished
among our peers in focusing on your longterm
career development, and our rapid growth
creates unparalleled career opportunities.
Entry-level consultants can apply to either, or
both, of our distinctive career tracks:
General Management Consulting (GMC)
Consultants on this track work on important
strategic issues across a broad range of
industries such as retail, consumer products,
leisure, aviation, communications, technology
and media, energy, manufacturing,
automotive, and transportation. The General
Management Consulting track provides an
opportunity to develop a broad skill set
across a range of industries, with sector
specialisation at your own pace.
Financial Services Consulting (FSC)
Consultants on this track join the firm's
Financial Services practice from day one,
working on important strategic issues for
clients in the financial services sector,
including retail banking, investment banking,
trading, insurance, asset management, health
& life sciences and risk. The focus on financial
services clients from the start means consultants
on the Financial Services Consulting track
become content experts early in their careers,
which affords rapid advancement.
Regardless of the track you join, you will
find yourself in a pure meritocracy. Strong
performers are promoted quickly and
compensated exceptionally. Supporting your
professional development, you will find
opportunities for learning (whether through
formal and informal training or hands-on
experience) that are as vast as your appetite to
seek them out. We also provide a springboard
for further study and opportunity should you
wish: our alumni have a strong track record
of getting into the best business schools and
other post-graduate programmes, and occupy
many high profile positions in industry,
private equity and non-profits.
What We Believe In
While our work is high impact and high
stakes, the atmosphere at Oliver Wyman is
noticeably friendly and collegial. We focus
on output, not input, and fundamentally reject
the culture of long hours for long hours' sake.
Rather we offer the opportunity to pursue
a realistic work-life balance, including
innovative programs such as our non-profit
fellowship and our 10 month year.
Our commitment is to provide extraordinary
opportunities for rapid professional and
personal growth. At that point, it's over to
you. Get there faster. Start here.
