Talent Specialist

 

Who We Are

Our strategy? To be anything but typical strategy consultants! Our unconventional nature is embedded deep in our DNA. Over 60 years ago, BCG shook up the world of strategy consulting. Now, it has grown to become one of the world leaders in the field. How do we manage to stay ahead of the pack? The answer is simple: by reinventing ourselves every day and providing a home with diverse career opportunities to the best talent and most creative minds all over the world. And by giving you the chance to make an impact in business and society. BCG stands for authenticity, exceptional work, and strong integrity. Once you’ve become part of the Group, we’ll help you find your path, unleash your potential, effect change, and advance the world. #jointhegroup

Our most vital resource is our people. That’s why Human Resources is one of our most vital teams: From recruiting to career development for BCGers, from training and mobility support to staffing (assigning our consultants to client casework), the Human Resources Team plays a decisive role in making BCG not just a company, but a Group in which every employee can become their best.

 

What You’ll Do

We are looking for a Talent Management Specialist for our new Talent Management unit (Associate/Consultant) for the Consulting Team. You’ll be the first point of contact for all HR topics for (Junior) Associates and (Junior) Consultants from certain offices in G&A. In that capacity, you will be responsible for the career development of these cohorts as well as for personnel planning and will thus support our consultants along their central career processes in a role similar to that of an HR Business Partner.

As part of personnel planning, you’ll ensure that our Associates and Consultants are optimally placed on projects, selecting consultants to best align with their personal career perspectives and meet client needs.

As a member of the core team of the Career Development Committee, you’ll be responsible for supporting in all career development processes, including preparing and following up on career development meetings, preparing the bonus process, and integrating that into the promotion processes of the colleagues you support. In doing so, you will work closely with the respective Career Advisors of the committee.

As a Talent Management Specialist, you’ll act as the central contact for HR inquiries and will connect those needing further consultation with the right person in our HR expertise functions. This is a key interfacing function as a navigator within the HR universe at BCG. For each HR topic, you’ll always foresightedly look for solutions that take into account both business and people needs and keep an eye on the development of our colleagues as a whole. You’ll communicate these decisions independently in a calm and empathic manner and with diplomatic skill.

 

What You’ll Bring

  • You have successfully completed a (technical) college degree, ideally with a focus on human resources or communication.
  • You have 1–5 years of experience (alternatively at least 2–3 relevant positions during your studies) in human resources, HR business partnering, or personnel resource planning in a service-oriented, dynamic working environment, preferably in management consulting.
  • Ideally, you already have experience in assessing the potential of employees and can thus optimally assign our consultants to the respective client projects and accompany their development in the best possible way.
  • You are proficient in MS Office software.
  • Your written and spoken English language skills are excellent.

 

Who You’ll Work With

You’ll be part of a 15-member team in Munich and Düsseldorf. Our collaboration as a team is characterized by mutual support, regular experience sharing, and strong trust. Integrity is our highest priority. You’ll report directly to the responsible Talent Management Director, who will be there for you during your orientation phase and support you in your professional development. You will also always be able to draw on the experience of your coworkers.
