Who We Are

BCG pioneered strategy consulting more than 50 years ago, and we continue to innovate and redefine the industry. We offer multiple career paths for the world's best talent to have a real impact on business and society. As part of our team, you will benefit from the breadth and diversity of what we are doing today and where we are headed next. We count on your authenticity, exceptional work, and strong integrity. In return we are committed to supporting you in discovering the most fulfilling career journey possible-and unlocking your potential to advance the world.BST is the operational heart of our business and is invaluable to our success. Roles such as finance, human resources, risk, and IT, help propel BCG forward. BST employees support the core of the organization and provide outstanding value to the business. As a BST member, you will work with inspiring, talented, dedicated, and curious colleagues in an energizing, fast-paced environment in which people are treated with respect and help one another to succeed. Working at BCG provides you with the opportunity to grow through interesting and challenging work and to have an active voice in your personal career development.

What You'll Do

You are essential to our office and our success. We are Boston Consulting Group (BCG), a 60-years young strategy consulting firm. Over the past few years, BCG has been ranked #1 in Consulting Magazine's annual 'Best Firms to Work For' survey, #12 on Glassdoor's Best Places to Work list. While we are proud of our heritage, we are even more excited about our future, and if you are the person we are looking for, we'd be thrilled to share it with you. As an Administrative Assistant, you are the backbone of the function. You ensure that the Project Leaders (PLs), Principals and Directors you support have what they need to seamlessly serve the needs of our clients, while also meeting their internal commitments and goals. You anticipate customer need, look ahead and prevent problems from arising.

This position involves scheduling (and rescheduling) meetings, booking (and unbooking) travel, managing case team logistics, keeping track of time and expenses, and keeping up with the fast pace of our Consulting Team.

This role starts with a 60-day in-office onboarding period designed to build strong foundations and accelerate learning.

After that, the role will shift to a hybrid schedule (~60% in-office). Depending on business needs, you may be asked to come in more frequently to support team collaboration or key moments.

Administrative Assistants (“AAs”) help shape our culture by actively participating in office life, and collaborate across functions to help fellow Business Services Team (BST) members. Our philosophy is to grow by growing others, and you become more tenured, you will serve as role models to more junior members of the Admin team. We work hard together, and we go out of our way to support each other – we want everyone to be successful, individually and as a team. We won't define a career path for you – but some of our AAs we've hired in this role have gone on to have long and successful careers as Executive Assistants at BCG; others have gone into work in one of our many Practice Areas; some have managed teams or rotated through a number of other functions. Your career at BCG will be at the intersection of your skills and desires and the needs of our business; it will only be limited by your investment.

What You'll Bring

• Bachelor's degree, strongly preferred
• Demonstrated customer service experience Minimum of 1 year of experience in a fast-paced environment (extremely fast paced!), or customer-service environment, strongly preferred
