Flexible Working

We want to make sure you have what you need for a productive and fulfilling working life at Arthur D. Little. And we appreciate there are times when you might need more flexibility to allow for family or personal needs to take priority. As such we can offer flexible hours as well as part-time and job-sharing options to help you manage your commitments.

Family Life

We also appreciate that it's not always easy to juggle children and a career, so we offer part-time parental leave. We actively promote the compatibility of family life and a career. Once you have taken parental leave and return to your workplace, we offer several highly flexible work-time models.

It's all about striking the right work-life balance and ensuring that we have a happy and healthy community within our firm – one that is informed and inspired by life to make a positive impact on the world.

Career path

Unlock the powerful difference within you

At Arthur D. Little, we're writing the blueprint for the next generation of consultants. To give you the opportunity to transition from a creative, curious graduate to a consultant that’s primed and ready to work at the intersection of established industries, new technologies, and radical ideas to solve the problems of the future.


International mobility program

Our International Mobility Program is your chance to gain experience in one of our offices around the world. London, Paris, Dubai, Singapore – anywhere is possible. We make this opportunity available to consultants who achieve excellent results and show great potential. You can take six months to two years to discover new cultures, gain invaluable international team experiences, grow your network, broaden your horizons, and maximize your personal development.

Training

We want you to ask questions, take chances, and explore ways to become the best version of yourself.

Mentorship and feedback

You are automatically assigned a mentor right from the very start. They are usually experienced consultants, often principals or partners, who provide support in integration and finding your way. Once you have come to know your co-workers, you can also choose your own mentor to help steer the course of your career with skills that align with your ambition.


Your project managers and co-workers will also routinely support you by providing regular feedback. Know how you are progressing and how you can develop yourself to improve further and establish a fulfilling career.
