Do you want to work on complex and pressing challenges—the kind that bring together curious, ambitious, and determined leaders who strive to become better every day? If this sounds like you, you’ve come to the right place.

Your Impact

You will work on projects that typically stretch over several months (e.g., 6-24 months), focusing on strategy or implementation and delivering results.
There will be an emphasis on coaching and building capabilities of client teams, and you will work on tasks that range from analyzing data to identifying opportunities to drive performance.
You will help clients surface issues and develop tactical action plans to quickly resolve them.
This role may also have you leveraging specific technical/sector expertise to offer targeted support (e.g., agriculture sector reform) to clients, including internal knowledge development and expertise.
You will work to rapidly identify actions, prioritize initiatives, and execute plans to deliver on critical targets.
You will have the opportunity to co-create performance targets and milestones with clients.
You will support clients to aggressively minimize bottlenecks to progress.
Associates are expected to provide ongoing, targeted capability-building of teams and/or individuals in context-specific skills, performance management, problem-solving, and analytics to enable them to more effectively deliver results.

Your Growth

You will work in our Bogota or Santiago office with the Latin America Public and Social Sector Delivery Hub (LatAm Delivery Hub).
LatAm Delivery Hub works closely with governments and public entities to address the complex public and social challenges. The vision of the LatAm Delivery Center is to provide a significant and sustainable impact to Latin American citizens, including improved infrastructure plans, employment strategies for disadvantaged sectors and greater investment and economic growth.
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.
