About The Role
Are you ready to dive into complex business environments and contribute to high-impact recommendations that drive client success? As a Consultant at FTI Consulting, you will be immersed in a dynamic and collaborative working environment where our experienced consultants will mentor you in the journey to identify challenges, perform in-depth analysis and generate insights that shape strategic decisions.
This role requires extremely solid problem-solving skills, end-to-end financial modelling skills, being capable of leading content discussion and the ability to work effectively in a team setting. You will be expected to handle multiple tasks simultaneously and deliver high-quality work under tight deadlines.

You will be part of our Strategy & Transformation team, which brings together top-tier consultants and former industry executives to deliver practical, actionable solutions. Our work spans from strategic planning to hands-on execution, enabling business transformation that drives sustainable performance and long-term value, ensuring that we not only design solutions but also help our clients implement them effectively. As trusted advisors to our clients, you will work side-by-side with them to drive measurable impact from day one.
