Position Overview & Specifications
Who You'll Work With When you join Fredericks & Partners as a Junior Associate in our London office, 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. In this role, you will work on the best teams to help the best organisations in the world - in private, public, and social sectors - solve their most challenging problems. You will also work with many experts, from data scientists and researchers to software and app designers.
What We're Looking For We're looking for a motivated, hardworking Junior Associate to join our team this year. This position is the entry-level position within Fredericks & Partners and provides an unrivalled opportunity to learn, grow and develop your skills within the consulting space. Fredericks & Partners specialises in consulting for Fortune 500 clients across Finance, Creative and Sport. The correct individual will need to have a high-level degree in either Business, Economics, Business Administration, Finance, International Relations, or Politics to be considered for this role. However, we may make exceptions from time to time.
What You'll Do This includes gathering and analysing organisation information, formulating and testing hypotheses, and developing and communicating recommendations. You'll also have the opportunity to present results to client management and implement recommendations in collaboration with client team members. Junior Associates receive exceptional training and frequent coaching and mentoring from colleagues on their teams. This support includes a Partner or practice assigned to you to help guide your career and up to five weeks of formal training in your first few years. Additionally, you’ll receive guidance and support from your local office or practice in selecting client projects, helping you develop your skills and build your network.
While all consultants develop specialised knowledge and a focused program as they progress with Fredericks & Partners, most are initially very broad in their focus, meaning they do not need specific industry or functional expertise to be successful. For consultants who join Fredericks & Partners as experienced professionals, this can mean building on previous knowledge or developing unique experience in an entirely new area.
