Our Roles
Business Analyst
Our analyst program offers you the opportunity to experience management consulting in a uniquely collegial way. We seek talented problem solvers who are ready to contribute immediately to the client team. Typical responsibilities include developing models, performing complex analyses, and working on both on- and offsite research. Most business analysts join us immediately after graduating with undergraduate degrees in fields such as business, engineering, and liberal arts. Others join after gaining industry experience, studying abroad, or pursuing graduate work in non-business areas. Those with more experience should apply for our senior business analyst role.
Summer Associate
Kearney’s summer consultant program offers you the opportunity to experience management consulting in a uniquely collegial way. Our summer program is eight to 10 weeks and begins with an orientation to your local office, followed by training where you will learn the necessary tools and methodologies required for success in management consulting. You will be assigned a mentor who will stay actively engaged with your project manager, and together they will offer continuous support and guidance throughout the program. As a summer associate, together with your project team, you will develop models, perform complex analyses, and work on data-gathering assignments, both at client sites and in the office. Typically, summer associates travel while on assignment to work side-by-side with our clients and client teams.
