Senior Consultant - Circularity

Job Description

Do you enjoy strategizing and leading strategic projects? Are you a curious team player? And can you listen to the needs of clients?

Roland Berger is a global management consultancy, and the only one with European roots, which assists clients to adapt to the challenges of today while enhancing their growth.

We are hiring a Senior Consultant to join Roland Berger's Amsterdam office and expand the circularity team. If you answered yes to the questions above, then keep reading for a unique career opportunity!

The Roland Berger Amsterdam DNA

Roland Berger is one of the top international strategic consulting firms in the world, with over 50 offices and 3,500 dedicated colleagues worldwide. Our Amsterdam office, established in 2002, is home to about 160 professional and ambitious individuals from a range of backgrounds and nationalities.

We live by our three core values: entrepreneurship, excellence and empathy. These values form the basis of our work as consultants and our interactions with clients, business partners and communities, and define our corporate culture. We take pride in our close-knit culture, which is creative, dedicated and respectful. We support one another to excel for our clients and engage in various activities outside of work to enhance cohesiveness, from sports and drinks to trips and holiday celebrations.

What we offer

Your adventure truly begins when you start at Roland Berger. From day one, you get the space and assurance you need to keep developing yourself: we offer plenty of opportunities for development, (inter)national training courses and a mentor for support. You are also offered an individual trajectory with a coach tailored to you and your personal development plans. You can follow an MBA at a leading business school, (temporarily) transfer to another Roland Berger office or intern at another company ("externship"). You are the architect of your career. In addition to a competitive salary, we offer excellent benefits, including 30 days of vacation, an electric lease car, a non-contributory pension and a contribution to your health insurance premium.

What you will be doing

As a Senior Consultant at Roland Berger focusing on circularity, you will collaborate closely with founding partner Arnoud van der Slot, serving both national and international clients on projects centered around circularity, specifically on waste management and recycling initiatives. Your role within the team will be crucial, as you take on the responsibility in expanding our expertise and footprint in the circularity sector and leading projects toward sustainable success. You will engage in creative problem-solving, exploring new technologies, business models, and strategies to optimize resource use and minimize waste.

The projects primarily take place in an international setting, as the project teams at this moment are predominantly international. With increasing global awareness of environmental issues, there's a growing demand for circularity expertise and there is a steady stream of diverse projects in this dynamic field. The clientele for each project differs, ranging from industrial enterprises, Private Equity firms, and technology suppliers to policymakers all focusing on circularity, in particular waste management and recycling.

As a Senior Consultant at Roland Berger you will:

• Take the lead for modules in larger projects, and complete project management of smaller projects (typically leading three to five consultants), with a specific focus on circularity.

• Coach and develop the consultants in your project teams.

• Have direct client contact and lead presentations during client meetings.

• Work closely with industry experts at Roland Berger.

• Contribute to Roland Berger's knowledge development by capturing insights and drawing lessons from client work.

• Participate in office-wide projects (e.g. in-depth studies on current topics) that further develop Roland Berger or its thinking in a specific area or sector.

Do you recognize yourself in the following qualifications, competencies and skills?
