Oliver Wyman

Oliver Wyman’s Private Equity team in North America is looking to hire consultants to support its rapid growth. The team works with private equity investors throughout the deal transaction lifecycle: from opportunity identification through due diligence and post‑transaction value realization. At Oliver Wyman, we take a multi‑specialist approach to our engagements, bringing teams comprising both deep industry and functional expertise, supported by proprietary approaches and a world‑class network.

This enables our clients to achieve differentiated results, both on deals and post‑transaction.

We have completed hundreds of engagements for leading private equity firms across North America, Europe, the Middle East, China and Southeast Asia, creating sustainable shareholder value.

This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a successful team at the center of the firm’s strategy. Consultants are given the opportunity for rapid professional growth, to participate in entrepreneurial work, and to share in the achievement of the team.
