The Role and Responsibilities

 

Experienced professionals bring us the know-how to make lasting change for our clients and our company. We are not typical âmanagementâ consultants. We provide industry- and discipline-specific knowledge and expertise, which amplifies our impact and helps us shape the future for our clients. Oliver Wyman is a diverse, entrepreneurial, non-competitive partnership of individuals who like to pursue new opportunities or build a unique franchise doing what they do best in a collegial, fun environment.

ENGAGEMENT MANAGERS are the on-scene leaders who run our projects day to day. You will lead the team through an efficient and effective problem-solving process from initial thought process through convergence on a solution. You will ensure that recommendations are correct, practical, sensible, relevant and cohesive. Itâs a role that demands thought leadership at the strategic level â and command of all the technical and operational details of execution. You will need great communication skills and the ability to forge strong relationships.

OUR VALUES & CULTURE

Weâre serious about making OW a rewarding, progressive, enjoyable and balanced place to work.

  • Self-starters and free thinkers who work well in a team
    We are individuals who are self-starting, motivated, energetic, entrepreneurial about what we do
  • Common aspiration, collective endeavour, shared success
    We have the common aspiration to have an impact, leave a legacy and change the world. We have no interest in running a steady-state business. We want to build, grow and shape the environment around us
  • Straightforward, open, respectful interaction

  • Opportunity without artificial barriers, anti-Kudzu

  • Balanced lives
    We value people whose lives balance work and non-work activities because we believe they are both more interesting colleagues and are able to make better contributions to the Firm. We push ourselves hard to deliver excellence, but we also work to extract the maximum benefit from the flexibility of a project-based business. We provide the ability to take career breaks for personal or family reasons. We fundamentally value each otherâs time, and are sensitive to how it is used. We are an output not input-based culture, have respect for peopleâs personal decisions, and believe that one's workload must be sustainable. We seek balance for ourselves and our colleagues.
