McKinsey African Leaders on Move Event 2022

Deadline: October 21, 2022

McKinsey has six offices in Africa – Johannesburg, Lagos, Luanda, Casablanca, Nairobi, and Addis Ababa. We serve many leading African organizations across sectors including energy and materials, financial services, consumer goods and retail, telecommunications, infrastructure, and logistics, as well as the public and social sectors. We also play an important role in building capabilities and creating African leaders—both in our clients’ organizations and in our own.

We invite individuals who are passionate about Africa to apply to African Leaders on the Move to learn more about our offices, roles, and work in the region.

We will host three similar ALM events in the United States. We encourage you to select a location that will be most suitable for you. Applicants should be in the US at the time of the event.

Eligibility Criteria

We welcome applicants from various academic and professional backgrounds interested in pursuing an exciting career in consulting and passionate about working in Africa. Undergraduates, post-graduates, and professionals with up to eight years of experience are invited to apply.
