Who we are:

PA Consulting Group is a leading management, systems and technology consulting firm. Employee-owned, award-winning, independent, highly successful, global, and ambitious for further growth - PA is a different kind of consulting firm.

Industrial placements at PA:

A placement at PA provides you with first-hand experience of working for a leading consulting firm. The experience will help you to make an informed career choice and contributes greatly to your personal and professional development. As placements are usually in practice areas relevant to your degree, you acquire valuable commercial insight into your area of study to take back for your final year. You work alongside PA experts and are given the opportunity to express your ideas, think creatively and work independently.

Placement students are valued as having an important role within PA, and have plenty of opportunities to be involved in wider PA life. From colleagues in your practice, inter-practice work, social events, your mentor and other placement students, you will meet a wide range of people and build a network of contacts.

What we look for:

We look to hire exceptional people and provide them with opportunities that they will not find elsewhere. PA offers a career in consulting, not just a job; a stake in our firm; and an environment where individuals and ideas matter.

Applicants must have an excellent academic record (minimum 300 UCAS points or equivalent), the ability to work co-operatively with others and present yourself and your ideas effectively and persuasively. You will also need a high degree of drive and tenacity in order to achieve your goals.

Occupation areas:

We are recruiting for industrial placements in the following business areas: IS Implementation, IT Consulting, Training and Development, Government Services and Financial Services.

Training and skills development:

We provide an environment for constant learning, and training is an important feature of life here. You will attend a one week global induction program which provides a great opportunity to familiarise yourself with PA, to learn about our business and to understand our culture and methodologies. Additional training will be provided to meet your individual development needs and aspirations.
