Job Description

Who We Are

Oliver Wyman is a global leader in management consulting, combining deep industry knowledge with specialized expertise in strategy, operations, risk management, and organization transformation. Our mission is to help clients achieve lasting success by solving their most complex problems and seizing their biggest opportunities.

We believe in the power of diverse perspectives and collaborative teams to drive innovation and impact. Our consultants come from a range of backgrounds and experiences, embracing the unique skills and insights they bring to our work.

We are hiring at multiple levels, specifically seeking candidates for a Senior Consultant role—ideally those with 3–5 years of professional experience, preferably with prior experience at a top management consulting firm. This role involves greater ownership of workstreams, client-facing responsibility, and mentoring of junior team members.

At Oliver Wyman, we are proud of the values we aspire to live by. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive and reach their full potential.

What You Will Do as a Senior Consultant

As a member of your project team, you’ll work alongside colleagues of all levels and clients worldwide to solve complex problems and drive meaningful change. Project-related activities include conducting research, surveys, and interviews, and analyzing data to gain insights, assess problems, and structure solutions. You’ll learn our core business skills, including how to structure your daily tasks. Applicants with a Bachelor’s (and Master’s) degree are eligible to apply for this vacancy.

Why Join Oliver Wyman?

Join us if you are excited by challenges and want to work across different cultures. We encourage you to step out of your comfort zone and embrace your curiosity. Our consultants learn on the job and receive formal training to develop their communication, presentation, analytical, and client management skills. You’ll find genuine colleagues who stand by their beliefs and measure success by the lasting impact you create together. We believe in flexibility, including the opportunity of hybrid working. You are also invited to join our employee resource groups and social activities.

Immediate Impact, Continuous Challenge

You’ll work on challenging projects that have a significant impact on clients, industries, and societies from day one. We’ll ask you to be brave, challenging the status quo and constantly striving to build something new to shape our firm and the world around us. You’ll be a contributing team member from the start, building trust-based relationships with stakeholders and delivering breakthrough impact. Your learning curve will be steep, with each project offering new opportunities to expand your toolkit and to team with specialists who have deep subject-matter and technical expertise. You’ll likely have the chance to travel within your home market and internationally. No two weeks are ever the same.

Chart Your Course; We Support the Journey

You’ll have the opportunity to work on projects across all our industries and capabilities and will be able to specialize early or leave it until several years in. Various colleagues will guide and coach you throughout your career, including a dedicated buddy, a career adviser, and your talent manager. We care deeply about sustainable work-life quality and provide for career flexibility with a variety of programs including sabbaticals, non-profit fellowships, and externships.

We Hire You To Be You

Our open, inclusive, and down-to-earth culture will enable you to bring your best authentic self to work. You’ll work alongside down-to-earth colleagues who do serious work but don’t take themselves too seriously. There’s no corporate mold to fit and hierarchy doesn’t get in the way. We do not let artificial barriers stand in the way of your personal career progression.

Who Can Apply?

  • Applicants with a Bachelor’s (and Master’s) degree only are eligible to apply.
  • 3–5 years of professional experience, preferably with prior experience at a top management consulting firm.
  • We look for people who display initiative, intuition, and creativity with a strong problem-solving and analytical mindset.
  • Language skills: Fluent proficiency in English and fluent proficiency in at least one of the Nordic languages (Swedish/Danish/Finnish/Norwegian).
