Job description

We are looking for recent graduates and early career professionals to join our award-winning management consultancy based in London!

Do you have a passion for problem-solving?

Do you want to join a collaborative team with motivated people who will mentor you to be the best you can possibly be?

At Clarasys, we know we’re a fun and sociable company to work for because we have the awards to prove it. Our consistently high ranking in the Sunday Times Top 100 Small Companies is partly down to our strong, supportive culture, training programme and the responsibility and trust we put in our people right from the start.

What do we do?

Clarasys is a fast-growing, independent management consultancy. We specialise in business analysis, change, technology, and agile methodologies to deliver sustainable improvements. Based in London and Boston (US), Clarasys exists to make a lasting difference to the way people work, live and grow. Check out our case studies, here.

For our clients (big and small, across a variety of sectors) that means collaborating with them to fix complex problems and improve their customers’ experience. We measure our success on client satisfaction.

For our people that means working in a company that is principled and does the right thing. We create opportunities that enable people to be at their best in a team-orientated, supportive environment.

For the world that means contributing to our community through pro bono work.

• The training: We’ll set you up to be a great consultant during a period of interactive training focused on all of the consulting skills you’ll need. With organised lunches and socials, you will get to know our team here at Clarasys as well as each other.
• Early weeks: You will be putting those skills into practice by looking at, and delivering on, specific ways we can make Clarasys even better. Our non-hierarchical and collaborative culture means you’ll work with people of all seniority across the business.
• Delivering a pro bono project: You’ll have the opportunity to deliver a real project for a charity. Previous clients have included The Prince’s Trust and Marie Curie Cancer Care. Whilst you’ll have an experienced consultant with you for support, you’ll be planning and delivering the work - taking responsibility early on.
• Working with clients: Once training is complete you will be involved in delivering client-facing work. With continuous support from us (including meeting your coach once a week and further training) you will rapidly develop your skills and grow into a capable and talented consultant.

Our ideal candidates will:

• Have a stellar academic record
• Be problem solvers and enjoy the challenge of taking on a problem and having the responsibility for solving it.
• Be analytical in the way they tackle issues by using data and information to understand and fix them.
• Have strong communication skills so they can build trust and solve clients’ problems.
• Be proactive and inquisitive and be able to take responsibility for making things happen. Successful candidates will also have a willingness to learn and grasp new skills and concepts.
• Value team over individual and always believe that multiple brains will be more effective. As a team player, you will enjoy and thrive on working in a collaborative environment.
• Be confident in handling difficult or unexpected situations in order to manage the ambiguity and changing environment of consulting projects.
• Be interested in developing project management, business analytics, data analytics, and change management skills to round out your consulting skill set
• Apply own judgement when using AI

Key Dates:

• December 1st 2026, In-person London assessment center
• February 1st 2027, Start date

You must be able to attend the assessment center and start on February 1st to be considered for this role. Initial interviewing will take place in October and November for qualified applicants.

Why work for us?

• Named one of the “Best Places to Work in the UK” 2026 by The Sunday Times
• Named one of the UK’s leading management consultancies by the Financial Times for the sixth consecutive year (2026)
• 25 days base holiday, option to buy or sell up to 5 days per calendar year
• Pro bono days, which employees can use to ‘give back’ to the community
• Career coach and a learning & development allowance that can go towards external exams
• Company laptop and mobile phone allowance
• Defined contribution pension scheme / Life Insurance / Healthcare
