We’ve got offices in Australia, New Zealand, South-East Asia, Africa, North and South America and Europe but prefer to spend as little time in them as possible.

Performance Strategy Consulting at Partners in Performance

As part of the Performance Strategy Consulting team, you will be working in teams to solve complex problems, drive meaningful change, and help industries and organisations overcome their biggest challenges. You will help influence decisions at the highest levels as well as improve performance at the frontline. Our working style is about testing, learning, and adapting to drive continual improvements wherever we go.

We’re a collaborative team that supports, challenges, mentors, and learns from one another. We believe in providing our people with experiences and development opportunities that stretch and push them beyond what they thought was possible.

IF YOU THINK CONSULTING IS MAKING GREAT POWERPOINT DECKS, KEEP WALKING.

Don’t get us wrong. We admire a sharp PowerPoint presentation as much as the next global consulting company. Heck, we make plenty ourselves. And we respect the people who are good at making them. But give us the choice between a column of perfectly aligned bullet points and delivering a plan that helps turn a client’s business around and the decision is a no-brainer. At Partners in Performance, being a Senior Associate isn’t about writing reports, or standing up and presenting them. It’ about the results. We’re here to deliver big, rapid, sustainable results for our clients. Deliver. Not just recommend. So, our end product isn’t a report, it’s what happens once we work alongside the client to implement what’s in it. It’s why our clients around the world choose us, and why we choose a certain type of person to fill our key roles. Like this one:

Senior Associate

Now that you’ve finished your MBA – and maybe even had a few years in a commercial role – you’ll be looking for the opportunity to turn your insights into business results. As a Partners in Performance Senior Associate those results could impact some of the world’s largest companies.

This role combines analysis with outcomes in a way that will challenge and develop you– all the time with the full support and mentoring of your fellow Partners in Performance colleagues. Once the recommendations built on your analysis are agreed to, you can expect to work alongside clients from the shop floor to the C-suite to help make them happen. Whether it’s process improvement, supply chain optimisation or back office transformation, you’ll help turn your recommendations into results for your clients.

The nuts and bolts

We’re looking for Senior Associates in our ANZ business. You’ll also need a distinction average in a Master’s degree or MBA and up to 6 years’ commercial experience is desirable. Working with Analytics is like breathing to us, so Excel and general maths ability are important. We love interesting people, so please include your community, sporting and volunteering experience in your CV.

Based on business requirements, candidates applying for this role can also be assessed for other opportunities within Accenture.
