Oliver Wyman – Associate & Engagement Manager – Energy – Dubai and Abu Dhabi (On-site)

Oliver Wyman - Energy

Oliver Wyman’s IMEA Unit, and its Dubai and Abu Dhabi Offices are looking to appoint consultants to support its continued expansion in the Energy sector, a strategic priority for the firm. Oliver Wyman’s Energy and Natural Resources team helps leading companies and government entities in the Energy sector to address strategic and operational challenges through proven, results-oriented approaches across all sectors of the market. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a successful team in its development stage. Consultants are given the opportunity for rapid professional growth, to participate in entrepreneurial work, and to share in the success of the team.   

THE ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES

Experienced professionals bring us the know-how to make lasting change for our clients and our company.  We are not typical ‘management’ consultants. We provide industry- and discipline-specific knowledge and expertise, which amplifies our impact and helps us shape the future for our clients. Oliver Wyman is a diverse, entrepreneurial, non-competitive partnership of individuals who like to pursue new opportunities or build a unique franchise doing what they do best in a collegial, fun environment.

ASSOCIATE break down complex problems into discrete tasks, identifying the key aspects of a problem and directing the focus of junior consultants to those elements. You will effectively plan and execute analysis as well as identify the core issues in complex analyses in order to be able to craft suitable recommendations. You’ll work side by side with clients and your project team members to move projects forward and manage small teams to get the work done. Clients and colleagues look to Associates for unique insight into the subject area which they have chosen.

ENGAGEMENT MANAGERS are the on-scene leaders who run our projects day to day. You will lead the team through an efficient and effective problem-solving process from initial thought process through convergence on a solution. You will ensure that recommendations are correct, practical, sensible, relevant and cohesive. It’s a role that demands thought leadership at the strategic level – and command of all the technical and operational details of execution. You will need great communication skills and the ability to forge strong relationships.
