Why Apply? 

Practical, real-world impact: as the consultancy does not deal with private companies, you will not be working for deep-pocketed CEOs; your work will have a direct impact on making various UK public functions more efficient, seamless and productive! 

There is a clear and structured career progression path to senior consultant in as little as 2 or 3 years, with increasing autonomy and opportunity to manage your own team.

As this consultancy is a medium-sized enterprise, you’ll be getting much more focussed attention on your work and progression within the company, and you’ll also get a lot more exposure and mentorship by senior members of the company due to the flat office structure.

Other perks:

• Regular socials (previous events have included a murder mystery party and white water rafting!)
• Bi-annual discretionary bonus  
• Open, flat structure – the MD sits in the office with the team           

Can I Apply?

The consultancy firm are looking for someone who: 

• Has (or is studying for) a PhD or master’s degree in a STEM subject.
• Does not have a dual-nationality and must have held a British passport for a minimum of the last five years.
• Achieved AAA at A-Level, and 1st Class degree                
• Logical, systematic approach to problem-solving – must also think creatively and laterally to identify the best solutions
