Strategy Consultant jobs in Melbourne VIC

The work you do today could help define what’s possible tomorrow — building trust and shaping how Australia’s most influential organisations compete, grow and create value in a world reshaped by AI, regulation and rising stakeholder expectations. As a Junior Strategy Consultant, you’ll play a vital role in defining enterprise strategy, designing operating models and delivering transformation that bridges strategy and execution. You’ll do this working with clients across financial services, mining, technology, energy and health.

Australia's most influential organisations - across financial services, mining and other key sectors - are rethinking how they compete, grow and create value in a world being reshaped by AI, regulation and rising stakeholder expectations. Strategy& works with them on the questions that matter most - and we're looking for a Senior Associate ready to play a central role in that work.

Strategy& is PwC's global strategy consulting business. In Australia, we define enterprise strategy, design operating models and deliver transformation. Our work bridges the gap between strategy and execution, backed by PwC's broader capabilities - giving you access to problems, clients and perspectives that few other roles can offer at this stage of your career.

In this role, you will be at the analytical core of our engagements. You'll generate and test hypotheses, build frameworks, conduct research and synthesise complex information into insights that drive client decisions. You'll take ownership of your workstream - managing deliverables, reconciling ambiguous data and presenting findings with clarity and confidence. Our teams are lean and shift with each engagement, so you'll need to be adaptable, proactive and ready to operate with real autonomy. You'll also begin contributing to business development - supporting proposals, developing thought leadership and building the commercial instincts that accelerate your growth toward Manager.

We're looking for sharp, curious thinkers who bring structure to unstructured problems and hold themselves to a high standard. You should be someone who communicates with precision, collaborates generously and takes initiative without waiting to be asked. Experience in financial services or mining will give you a head start, but we're equally interested in exceptional problem-solvers from any background who are hungry to build deep sector knowledge and develop fast.

If you want to do meaningful strategy work early in your career - with real responsibility, direct client exposure and a team that invests in your development - this is where to start.
