Job description
Global corporates, governments, family conglomerates and sovereign wealth funds bring their biggest strategic questions to EY-Parthenon, and this Senior Consultant role in Dubai, part of the Emirati Talent programme, puts you on those projects. C-Suite executives are often the direct audience. Projects range from long-term strategy roadmaps, growth and market entry strategy to go-to-market plans, business-wide digital transformation, commercial due diligence and greenfield ventures. Within each workstream, you turn client needs into tasks and deliverables, and help define objectives and scope with senior colleagues. Market analysis, customer research, macroeconomic forecasting and portfolio optimization are the everyday tools. Transaction work adds deal document review to spot critical business issues and risks. Large amounts of qualitative and quantitative data have to become realistic plans, goals and actions. Expect to bring at least 3 years of experience, ideally in consulting or strategy, professional English and Arabic, and willingness to travel across MENA 25 to 50% of the time.
