Launch your consulting journey with West Monroe
West Monroe is seeking Consulting Interns to join our Financial Management Team within our Operations Excellence (OpEx) Practice. In this role, interns leverage their business and technology acumen to guide the transformation of our clients across their COO, CFO and CIO organizations. These projects typically involve developing current-state assessment, strategy, and business case, or managing the implementation of the transformation.
As a Financial Management Consulting Intern, you will use your skills to transform our clients’ accounting, budgeting, planning, and financial reporting processes. This transformation is achieved through process improvements, enhancements in core technologies, and operating model refinements.
Interns aligned to our Operations Excellence Practice will build depth and expertise in their selected area of focus across industries, while sometimes being exposed to our other functional disciplines, pending business need. Interns hone their skills in critical thinking, data analysis, and presentation. Perhaps more importantly, through our supportive culture, interns also learn how personally meaningful it is to work for a firm whose mission is to create the next generation of leaders.
