The opportunity
As an Associate Consultant at Proxima, you will be part of teams delivering high-impact commercial, sourcing, and supplier initiatives. You will support the development of insights, contribute to solution design, and play an active role in shaping outcomes, not just recommendations.
This is an experienced early-career role designed to build strong consulting foundations while contributing meaningfully to real client outcomes. This is not a passive learning role. At Proxima, we are practitioner-consultants. You will build experience quickly, take responsibility early, and work alongside clients to deliver real, measurable change.
What you’ll do
- Support delivery across client engagements
- Develop core consulting skills, including problem-solving, stakeholder communication, and presentation
- Learn and use Proxima tools, IP, and methodologies to support client-ready outputs
- Analyze data to inform decisions
- Build structured analyses and fact bases that translate data into clear insights
- Support benefits tracking and progress against delivery milestones.
- Engage and collaborate with a team
- Collaborate with team members to support workshops, working sessions, and day-to-day delivery
- Communicate findings clearly and professionally with team members.
- Work in a global, flexible model
- Operate in a hybrid environment, balancing client, home, and office-based work.
- Travel as required to support client delivery and team collaboration.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
