JOB SUMMARY

Our client, a highly reputable consulting firm committed to high professional standards, seeks to recruit a capable and result-oriented Junior Strategy Consultant to support the delivery of strategy advisory, business transformation and performance improvement engagements.

The role requires a candidate who can support strategy development and execution from diagnosis to implementation planning. The ideal candidate must be able to conduct research, analyse business and market data, support stakeholder engagements, develop strategic options, prepare executive-level reports and contribute to implementation roadmaps, performance frameworks and client presentations.

This is not an entry-level research role. The successful candidate must have practical experience supporting strategy, transformation, business advisory or corporate planning assignments.

  • Support client meetings and presentations under the guidance of senior team members.

  • Coordinate project logistics and maintain organised project files, data and evidence.

Business Development and Practice Support

  • Support proposal writing, expressions of interest, capability statements and bid preparation.
  • Conduct research on prospective clients, sectors and business opportunities.
  • Contribute to thought pieces, market insights and service offering development for the Strategy unit
  • Support the development of reusable tools, templates and knowledge assets for strategy engagements.

Digital Transformation and AI-Enabled Work

  • Demonstrate awareness of how digital transformation, data, automation and AI are reshaping business strategy and operating models.
  • Use approved AI and digital productivity tools responsibly to support research, analysis, synthesis, document drafting and client problem-solving.
