Are you driven by the opportunity to tackle complex challenges and work alongside top leaders? Do you want to be part of a team that delivers outcomes that others simply can’t? If so, you’ve come to the right place.

Who You'll Work With

You will work as part of McKinsey’s global Transformation practice. There will be flexibility in the location of this role across our offices in North America. In the Business Analyst role, you will have the opportunity to work on teams and help organizations across the world - across the private, public, and social sectors - solve some of their most difficult problems and operational challenges. You will work with McKinsey teams comprised of transformation experts, sector/functional specialists, and generalist consultants. You will also work with a variety of individuals at our clients, ranging from the C-Suite to front-line workers.
When you join McKinsey, you are joining a firm whose culture is distinctive and inclusive. We will accelerate your development as a leader to create positive, enduring change in the world.
McKinsey's Transformation practice helps clients change their trajectory and achieve their full potential through holistic interventions in performance, capabilities and organizational health. Our suite of transformation approaches is underpinned by distinctive tools and technologies and led by transformation specialists who partner with client teams to enable real, sustained change. We hire experienced professionals from industry, private equity, and the restructuring and professional services ecosystem to work side-by-side with our firm's network of industry and functional experts in large-scale transformation programs around the world.

Your impact within our firm

You will operate as part of an engagement team, typically consisting of a team of 2-5 consultants led by an engagement manager. Together you will drive the day-to-day execution of a transformation effort to help clients achieve new performance highs in their business.
You will apply a proven, methodology-driven approach to large-scale transformation that focuses on execution and capability building. Your client engagements will often span >6 months, and they will generally include three phases: Independent Diligence, Bottom-Up Planning, and Implementation. Within these engagements we ensure Analysts are exposed to multiple areas of the businesses, rotating their responsibilities across the Transformation Office and functional and strategic support areas.
You will work directly with clients - usually on site - and will take ownership of specific workstreams and end-products within the overall transformation program. You will be responsible for delivering the transformation objectives within your workstream, coaching your clients to develop and execute effective improvement plans and role-modeling a mindset of rapid decision-making. Above all, your job will be to mobilize and help clients to achieve change that exceeds their expectations.
More broadly, you will have the opportunity to build on your proven capabilities and leverage a range of influencing styles. You will inspire others, build strong relationships and display high energy and resilience in ambiguous and fast-paced contexts. In a collaborative team setting, you'll work closely with others but will also – after appropriate apprenticeship – be expected to operate autonomously with limited direction to drive progress in your areas of accountability.

  • 3+ years of corporate and or professional services experience focused on operations, finance/accounting, and or go-to-market/top-line growth initiatives
