Junior Consultant 2027

Full job description

Start Your Career with Consulting at Roland Berger What if your first few years after university could take you further than you expected? Consulting is about curiosity, creativity, strategic thinking and teamwork. It's about getting to grips with a problem, understanding what really matters and working with others to find a solution. At Roland Berger, you'll work on challenging business problems for leading organisations, alongside people who are experts in what they do. You'll learn quickly, take on responsibility early and gain experience across industries, countries and topics. From your first day, you'll contribute to real client work, learn from experienced colleagues and develop the skills to build a career you're proud of. Find Your People Our London office is a genuinely international and multicultural community, bringing together people from a wide range of nationalities, cultures, backgrounds and experiences. Life as a Junior Consultant As a Junior Consultant, you'll work as part of project teams to help clients solve complex business problems and make important decisions. Your work could involve analysing data, researching markets, building financial or operational models, developing strategies, exploring new technologies or helping a client respond to major change. No two projects are the same. You'll work across different industries, clients and challenges, giving you the opportunity to build a broad set of skills and discover where your interests and strengths lie. You'll be given meaningful responsibility from an early stage, while working closely with experienced colleagues who will support you along the way. Where the Work Takes You Hybrid working and travel are an important and expected part of this role from day one. Our people work across a combination of locations, including the Roland Berger office in London, remotely, at client sites across the UK and, depending on the project, potentially at international client or project locations. Learning without Limits When you join Roland Berger, you'll be aligned to our Transaction and Investor Support (TIS) platform as your primary area of focus, with particular opportunities across Regulated and Infrastructure and Industrials. As a Junior Consultant, you'll have the opportunity to work across different platforms, industries and topics depending on the needs of our business and our clients. What you'll bring We're particularly interested in candidates who have developed strong analytical thinking, quantitative reasoning, structured problem-solving and commercial awareness. Degrees in STEM, management and economics-related subjects can provide a strong foundation for these skills. Equally, candidates from humanities, languages, law, social sciences and other disciplines can bring valuable strengths of their own. You should be on track to achieve, or have already achieved, a 2:1 equivalent or above in either 2026 or 2027, and have gained at least eight weeks of work experience. This doesn't need to be a traditional internship, a combination of part-time work, internships, volunteering, academic projects or other experiences can all demonstrate the skills and behaviours we're looking for. Skills that will help you stand out Strong Microsoft Excel skills, including experience working with data, analysis or modelling, are highly valuable. We're also increasingly interested in AI literacy, not simply knowing how to use AI tools, but understanding how they can be applied effectively and responsibly to research, analysis, problem-solving and productivity. Additional languages, particularly European languages, can be an advantage in our international environment, while consulting or consulting-adjacent internships can give you useful exposure to the way we work.
