In this role you will have the opportunity to work on teams and help the best organizations in the world – across the private, public, and social sectors – solve some of their most difficult problems. You will also work with a range of experts in the firm, from data scientists to researchers to software and app designers.

  • Additionally, you’ll receive guidance and support from your local office in the selection of client projects, helping you to develop your skills and build your network.

  • We view the Business Analyst position as the start of a rewarding, challenging, and highly flexible career with McKinsey.

  • We encourage you to explore different content areas or geographies through a year-long rotation with one of our practices (e.g., corporate finance, social sector, healthcare, operations) or global offices; many do this after two years as a generalist BA.

  • Following your BA tenure, assuming good performance, you will move into a post-graduate school role.

Detailed Descriptions


  • The ADH develops and implements exciting social sector or government programs such as reforming primary schools in South Africa, implementing special economic zones in Kenya or transforming power infrastructure across African countries.

Job Title: Associate Intern
Location:
Lagos


Job Descriptions


Who You’ll Work With:


  • You’ll work in one of our offices around the world for 8 – 10 weeks, usually in the summer.

  • You’ll work as part of a client project team, collaborating with colleagues and clients to solve their toughest business problems.

What You’ll Do
