L.E.K. Consulting provides fast-track opportunities for entrepreneurial MBAs looking to grow their skills and knowledge and build a strategic business consulting career.
Our Consultants benefit from wide ranging opportunities to take on additional responsibilities and experience a variety of strategic business consulting engagements.
Professionals are promoted commensurate with their capabilities and contributions, rather than solely based upon their length of service with the firm. Consultants have the opportunity to advance within the firm quickly. Promotion to Manager generally occurs after two to three years and promotion to more senior roles after an additional three to five years, depending on performance.
Our Consultant role offers these key opportunities for development and advancement, frequently not available at other consulting firms:
- Immediate management responsibilities: Consultants have the opportunity to manage associates from day one.
- Opportunities to work with senior executives: L.E.K.’s non-hierarchical structure results in frequent interaction between consultants and senior professionals both within L.E.K. and within the client’s organization.
- International experience: Approximately one-third of L.E.K. projects involved an international component; L.E.K. Consultants frequently work with international project teams and may take advantage of opportunities to relocate to international offices either on a temporary or permanent basis.
We recruit all of our Consultants on the basis of their long-term partner potential. The growth of L.E.K. is achieved by our Consultants realizing that ambition. Those who choose to leave find rich opportunities elsewhere as a result of their experiences at L.E.K.
