The firm places a high value on its employees and offers fantastic learning and development opportunities to encourage and facilitate career progression.
About the role
Efficio is looking to hire interns to join our consulting team this Summer (3 June - 30 August). This is a fantastic opportunity for students entering the final year of their degree, to gain experience at a fast-growing management consultancy.
Following a week of rigorous training, you will be assigned to a project where, under the guidance of an experienced consultant, you will play a participating role in many aspects of client engagement. The role will predominantly involve:
- Collecting, evaluating, and synthesising large data sets from a variety of sources, mastering Excel and SQL. The insights and understandings from this analysis will provide important inputs to the project team’s recommendations and solutions.
- Support the day-to-day delivery of projects, e.g., assist with developing and issuing RFPs, evaluating proposals from suppliers, and assist with the visualisation and presentation of analyses.
- Interact with clients and suppliers as required.
With such a fast ramp-up and involvement in client facing projects, interns will need to be able to learn fast, get up to speed quickly and work effectively in dynamic environments.

- Proficiency in the use of Excel and PowerPoint
