ZS Associates

Managers leverage their experience to take responsibility for projects and lead client relationships immediately. Managers enter ZS either as generalists across practice areas or industries, or as specialists within one area. As a Manager, you will:

• Manage projects and client relationships
• Drive business and strategy development
• Direct multiple projects simultaneously, honing analytic and project management skills
• Motivate, coach and serve as a role model for project team members
• Provide thought leadership and innovation within projects and across practice areas

What opportunities exist at ZS?

ZS project teams are usually composed of two to four people drawn from different levels of the firm. Working with small teams on major consulting assignments encourages a close working relationship with ZS Consultants, Managers, Principals and clients. The exposure to clients encourages an understanding of the critical questions facing sales and marketing executives.

ZS provides organized training, which continues as on-the-job learning. Upon joining, a New Employee Orientation provides information on basic tools, resources and key ZS practice areas. In addition, several training sessions are offered each month, ranging from broad business topics to specific technical instruction. A Professional Development Manager will provide career guidance, and project performance feedback will help identify areas for innovation and growth. As analytic and technical skills grow, so do project management opportunities. As your career advances, your active participation in business and strategy development grows. Over time you may choose to specialize in a particular practice area or perhaps focus on managing an on-going client relationship.
