You will be part of our Global Administrationteam. This team is passionate about delivering exceptional administrative, organizational, and logistical support. They enable our colleagues and our firm to operate efficiently and fulfill its purpose to help create positive, enduring change in the world.
Based in our McKinsey Global Services office in Gurugram you will work with consultants, function leaders, peer executive assistants (EA), and other colleagues across the globe on tasks with international reach.

During the recruiting process, we’ll work together with you to align your skills and experience with one of these positions.
