Practice Senior Manager; Tech​/AI - Sustainability

WHAT MAKES US A GREAT PLACE TO WORK

We are proud to be consistently recognized as one of the world’s best places to work. We are currently the #1 ranked consulting firm on Glassdoor’s Best Places to Work list and have maintained a spot in the top four on Glassdoor’s list since its founding in 2009.

Extraordinary teams are at the heart of our business strategy, but these don’t happen by chance. They require intentional focus on bringing together a broad set of backgrounds, cultures, experiences, perspectives, and skills in a supportive and inclusive work environment. We hire people with exceptional talent and create an environment in which every individual can thrive professionally and personally.

Over the past two decades, Bain has formalized Industry and Capability areas, internally known as “Practices”, integral to how Bain wins and delivers results to its clients. A Practice can be considered a business unit of Bain & Company. The role within a Practice is primarily focused on supporting our client‑facing partners and case teams to deliver great client and people success stories.

This can include, at times, client‑facing work. Specifically, the Practice defines and implements their strategy and allocates resources to:

• Boost Bain’s knowledge and expertise in the sector or capability: co‑create, shape and manage innovative perspectives and products to help the business win more projects, and to serve clients more effectively and efficiently
• Prioritize clients and enable them to reach their full potential
• Develop partner team and capabilities
• Build the practice’s brand and reputation externally

Sustainability (which covers environmental, social, and governance issues) is an increasingly important topic for our clients. In the Sustainability Practice, we help our clients make critical decisions that impact the core of their business strategy related to sustainability strategy, environmental and social impacts of operations, stakeholder engagement, and sustainability‑related growth and cost opportunities. We work to ensure that sustainability efforts are anchored in business fundamentals and demonstrate a clear return on investment – and that those efforts are then firmly embedded within our clients' strategy and operations.
