What You'll Do

As an Associate/Senior Associate, you’ll work on a variety of the above topics, applying your generalist consulting skills to strategic digital, technology, and digital transformation questions.

Working closely with clients to understand their issues, you’ll create strategies for change, win buy-in for your recommendations, and collaborate with fellow BCGers to transform client potential into performance.

You’ll help your clients answer questions such as “How will AI disrupt my business model?”, “How can businesses use data and analytics to create highly personalized outreach delivered through a seamless omnichannel experience?”, “How can I ship higher quality digital services to my customers faster by using agile?” and many more.
