Meet Our People
We’re an organisation of individuals cut from different cloths but united by a common purpose – working together with our clients and colleagues to build relationships that last.
That means we come up with the brave answers that set us – and our clients – apart.
When asked, what sets OC&C apart from other strategy consultancies, the most common answer is a group of intelligent, motivated and genuinely fun people which make up the supportive workforce. But, don’t take our word for it – hear what our team has to say.
Hear from our team
''When applying to OC&C, most people focus heavily on preparing for case studies, which is essential. However, it's equally important to be yourself. Be ready to discuss who you are, what you represent, and why you like OC&C. Our teams value personalities and human qualities just as much as intelligence.''

''Consulting is about fact-based and data-driven decision-making. I came from a background in tech and sales, where things are much more relationship and intuition based. Pairing the analytical toolkit I’ve built and developed at OC&C with my incumbent background has given me a lot more confidence since starting.''

''My journey at OC&C, despite the background of volatile economic environment of COVID and inflation, has given me exposure to a broad range of client work across multiple geographies. It has allowed me to learn new things quickly and collaborate with inspiring young leaders from various offices. The supportive environment at OC&C Warsaw has been particularly helpful in enhancing my overall experience.''

''Coming from a liberal arts educational background, I was particularly excited about the multi-disciplinary nature of consulting – all of the qualitative and quantitative pieces of research that need to come together to deliver an exceptional answer to our clients. I was also looking forward to the team working aspect of the job. Across all tenures, every single person has a clear role and opportunity to contribute, and it’s been extremely satisfying to be constantly learning from and working so collaboratively with my colleagues!''

''I love being able to learn about the inner workings of industries and companies which make the world tick (and most people don't even think about). Being able to advise CEOs on the direction of their company and support decisions in purchasing multi-million / billion companies is a very rewarding part of the job.''

"I’ve found the OC&C culture an easy one to engage with – everyone from ACs to Ps brings such a positive attitude to the work and (less frequently) to leisure. I’ve had the opportunity to co-lead monthly peer group meetings for senior ACs / Cs, and have more recently gotten involved as the co-lead of Boston FDA, where I’m excited to keep things moving forward with our growing Boston office!"

''When researching consulting firms, it became clear that OC&C was the perfect size – large enough to do meaningful and exciting work, but still personal enough to facilitate quick building of relationships, trust and reputation.''

"My favourite project was when I was working for an ecommerce retailer in New York. The key question was in a world where Amazon is so dominant how could they differentiate themselves. The project had a great team, really nice client, interesting question and good work-life balance while spending two months in NYC!"
