Do you want to do work that matters, alongside supportive leaders who will help you grow faster than you ever thought possible? Are you a creative problem-solver who is energized by challenges? You’ve come to the right place.

YOUR IMPACT

In this role, your impact will be centered on working directly with McKinsey colleagues and clients to solve complex business challenges across the full range of the Life Sciences industry, including pharma R&D, operations, medical devices, commercial strategy, and animal health.

You will help scope their most pressing business questions, disaggregating and prioritizing their information needs to find the most effective solutions.

Your responsibilities will be dynamic, ranging from ad-hoc research requests to dedicated, long-term project support. On a day-to-day basis, you will problem-solve across international, cross-functional knowledge and intelligence teams to determine the best approach, balancing quality, timelines, and cost. You will generate critical insights by using a variety of analytical tools (including Excel and Generative AI) on licensed third-party data (like pharmaceutical market and clinical trials data) and proprietary McKinsey data sets. You will communicate your findings by creating clear and compelling end products for clients and consulting teams, such as memos, PowerPoint presentations, and data tables.

You will join McKinsey’s Life Sciences Intelligence (LSi) team in Europe on a full-time, hybrid basis from our Wroclaw or Lisbon office. The LSi team is a vital part of McKinsey’s global Client Capabilities Network (CCN)—an innovative group of over 3,500 colleagues—and represents the firm's second-largest industry practice, with over 80 professionals in hubs across Boston, Lisbon, Poland, India, and China.

Beyond direct client service, you will spend significant time collaborating with tenured colleagues and leaders on the LSi team to advance team priorities. You will be at the core of helping to develop and deliver new tech-enabled capabilities, meaningfully advancing the adoption of our growing portfolio of proprietary analytical and knowledge assets, and helping to automate processes to drive efficiency and deeper insights.

YOUR GROWTH

Driving lasting impact and building long-term capabilities with our clients is not easy work. You are the kind of person who thrives in a high performance/high reward culture - doing hard things, picking yourself up when you stumble, and having the resilience to try another way forward.

In return for your drive, determination, and curiosity, we'll provide the resources, mentorship, and opportunities you need to become a stronger leader faster than you ever thought possible. Your colleagues—at all levels—will invest deeply in your development, just as much as they invest in delivering exceptional results for clients. Every day, you'll receive apprenticeship, coaching, and exposure that will accelerate your growth in ways you won’t find anywhere else.

When you join us, you will have:

• Continuous learning: Our learning and apprenticeship culture, backed by structured programs, is all about helping you grow while creating an environment where feedback is clear, actionable, and focused on your development. The real magic happens when you take the input from others to heart and embrace the fast-paced learning experience, owning your journey.
