Who You'll Work With

Driving lasting impact and building long-term capabilities with our clients is not easy work. You are the kind of person who thrives in a high performance/high reward culture - doing hard things, picking yourself up when you stumble, and having the resilience to try another way forward.

In return for your drive, determination, and curiosity, we'll provide the resources, mentorship, and opportunities you need to become a stronger leader faster than you ever thought possible. Your colleagues—at all levels—will invest deeply in your development, just as much as they invest in delivering exceptional results for clients. Every day, you'll receive apprenticeship, coaching, and exposure that will accelerate your growth in ways you won’t find anywhere else.

When you join us, you will have:

• Continuous learning: Our learning and apprenticeship culture, backed by structured programs, is all about helping you grow while creating an environment where feedback is clear, actionable, and focused on your development. The real magic happens when you take the input from others to heart and embrace the fast-paced learning experience, owning your journey.
• A voice that matters: From day one, we value your ideas and contributions. You’ll make a tangible impact by offering innovative ideas and practical solutions, all while upholding our unwavering commitment to ethics and integrity. We not only encourage diverse perspectives, but they are critical in driving us toward the best possible outcomes.
• Global community: With colleagues across 65+ countries and over 100 different nationalities, our firm’s diversity fuels creativity and helps us come up with the best solutions for our clients. Plus, you’ll have the opportunity to learn from exceptional colleagues with diverse backgrounds and experiences.
• World-class benefits: On top of a competitive salary (based on your location, experience, and skills), we provide a comprehensive benefits package to enable holistic well-being for you and your family.

Your Impact

You will work with C-suite executives to problem-solve on their key issues and provide actionable recommendations, bringing together strong business judgment, analytical problem-solving, and an interest in technology and AI.

You will join McKinsey as an integrative Business Analyst or Senior Business Analyst, depending on your experience, and will work across a broad range of client topics, industries, and functions. Given your background and interests, we will aim to provide opportunities to work on engagements related to technology, AI, digital transformation, advanced analytics, cloud, cybersecurity, and other technology-enabled business topics, in line with client demand and project availability.

You will play an active role in all aspects of a client project, typically working in teams of 3 to 5 consultants alongside experts and partners of different tenures, including developers, designers, data engineers, agile coaches, and other specialists when relevant. Your work may include gathering and analyzing information, formulating and testing hypotheses, developing recommendations, preparing client presentations, and supporting implementation together with client teams.

You will also have opportunities to collaborate with colleagues from across McKinsey’s global Tech & AI community. This community brings together expertise in areas such as advanced analytics, AI, agile, cloud, cybersecurity, digital marketing, technology strategy, and technology-enabled transformations.

You will receive extensive training as well as frequent coaching and mentoring from colleagues on your teams. This includes formal training programs, ongoing feedback, and support from a partner in your local office who will help guide your development and career progression.

You will also receive support from your local office in navigating staffing opportunities, developing your skills, and building a broad network across McKinsey.

You’ll join one of our Central European offices in Bucharest, Budapest, Kyiv, Prague, Warsaw, or Zagreb and will be fully integrated into the broader McKinsey consulting community. Through your work, you will help clients solve complex business problems and use technology and AI, where relevant, to create lasting impact.
