WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH
You will work in our Gurugram office with our Finalta Banking team as part of McKinsey’s Financial Institution Group (FIG) Practice.
Building on twenty years' experience working with leading banks and insurers, Finalta’s benchmarking work combines deep industry knowledge and proprietary performance data from more than 350 financial institutions in over 50 countries to generate insights on how our clients can achieve superior performance.
Our annual benchmarking studies enable clients to objectively assess their performance against peers and quantify opportunities for improvement. This, combined with our case studies insights and recommendations, give clients a roadmap to reach world-class performance while reducing the time, cost, and risk of change.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Throughout our 6-month benchmarking study cycles, you will work with multiple clients simultaneously. As an analyst in the project team, you will have high levels of responsibility from the start. You will be the owner of the dataset, engaging directly with your clients to gather, validate and assess the quality of the data.
You will also work closely with your team to explore hypotheses and contribute insights through your analyses.
Our benchmarks are typically repeated annually, giving you the opportunity to build specialist expertise in a specific topic, market or client. You will have your own portfolio of clients to manage each cycle, and will interact with our global teams working on the same benchmark. This connection to our wide and diverse team will expose you to different perspectives, innovative ideas, and global trends, further enhancing your professional growth and development.
While you will have the opportunity to meet senior stakeholders during the delivery of our findings, the bulk of the project cycle will be carried out remotely and does not require significant time on client-site. This allows you to plan your schedule and manage your work-life balance in a way that suits you
