What do you want in a career? Do you want a team environment that supports and cultivates your professional and personal growth? Are you looking for an opportunity that provides challenging work while utilizing your skills, and building your knowledge? If so, becoming a Summer Scholar and participating in our Project Analyst Summer Scholar Program could be your best move.
The Project Controller practice is essential to delivering quality client service. Project Controllers (PC) are smart, talented finance professionals responsible for analyzing and reporting on financial results. They are client service professionals who specialize in project and account operations on engagements. PCs provide engagement management knowledge for the entire project team by assisting with the organizational and logistical aspects of projects. Their greatest value, however, is in the understanding and application of engagement business and financial processes both to individual projects and to client accounts.
Summer Scholar Project Analysts are responsible for supporting one or more consulting teams through successful management of the financial analysis and reconciliation process and the implementation of project management controls.
