About the Role

This role is perfect for recent graduates with previous internships under their belt or people early on in their career journey. You'll need to have some prior experience in data science, analytics and modelling in a business or academic setting, but you don't need to be a pro

As a Junior Consultant, you will be working on challenging data science projects with international clients across multiple industries (Auto, Beauty, Retail, Financial Services, etc.), and building bespoke analytics solutions to answer our clients' key questions.

As both a data scientist and consultant, you will use and develop advanced data analytics and consulting skills on your projects.
From day one, you will join a project team of 3 to 6 consultants and collaborate on 1 to 3 projects simultaneously.

From discovery meetings to final recommendations, responsibilities include:
gathering and analysing data, building statistical models, translating quantitative insights into strategic recommendations, and delivering the final results.

The projects will push you to create innovative approaches and give you plenty of opportunities to grow both your technical skills and business acumen.
Our closeknit team will support your growth across multiple industries and methodologies. From your fellow Junior Consultants to our Partners, each member of our team takes a vested interest in the development of your skill and career development. We have something to learn from each of our colleagues and actively encourage continuous growth through 70+ proprietary training sessions and collaboration with colleagues as coaches and mentors.

Finally, this is an opportunity to work for a growing, international pioneer in data science that will empower you to have an immediate impact from the beginning.
