Strategy & Operations Finance Program

Help impact more than just the bottom line

It’s your future.  As a consultant in our Finance Transformation practice, you’ll be recognized as a leader in finance management by both peers and clients. The breadth and depth of our practice is greater than that of any other competitor, and we continue to invest in our leadership position.¹   Our consultants strive to become the CFO’s primary trusted advisor.  As a member of our team you’ll make an impact on the world’s most powerful finance organizations.  How far will you take it?

Put your money where your mouth is

Do you want to focus on advising the CFO and the finance function, improving value within the organization and externally in the marketplace?  We navigate change within and through the finance function, helping to enable value creation through activities such as mergers or divestitures, taking a company public, building financial processes and organizations to keep pace with a rapidly growing company, improving reporting, analysis and decision making, and driving cost reduction through finance.  Our job is often to craft the roadmap across people, process, and technology to navigate the transformation, and then execute the strategy to help generate results.

Do you have what it takes?

We want people who can both “think” and “do.”  This means you bring strong analytical skills and a great passion for addressing complex problems.  You see solutions that others don’t.  You also bring the capability of working in teams.  You relish the opportunity to work side by side with your clients..  You understand how to get large, complex, sometimes reluctant companies to execute and implement the recommendations that you and your client have devised.

As a consultant, you may choose to specialize immediately in a particular industry or service offering, but chances are you will spend your first two or three years serving clients in a wide range of industries on assignments that reflect the range of Finance-related services we provide.  

We seek the “best and the brightest” individuals from the most prestigious schools and programs.

• An MBA, MS Finance or Accounting , MS Logistics or Supply Chain and  1-2 years work experience, preferably in a large company Finance organization
