You are a true team player, eager to support others while scaling both the company and your own career.
Experience: You are a recent graduate or a professional with up to 2 years of initial experience in management consulting, corporate strategy, or data/tech environments (including strong internships).

Data & AI Affinity: A strong natural affinity for data management, technology trends, and modern AI. You are excited to learn how Generative AI, LLMs, and machine learning can solve real-world business problems.
Business & Analytical Mindset: You possess strong quantitative and structured problem-solving skills, with a passion for breaking down complex tasks and transforming data into strategic solutions.
You are confident working with PowerPoint/Google Slides and Excel/Google Sheets to produce clean deliverables. Knowledge of SQL or Python is welcome but not required.
