The Boston Consulting Group (BCG), a global management consulting firm, has inaugurated a year-long business analyst programme in Saudi Arabia.
The initiative is especially designed to help nurture young Saudi talents and equip the nation’s youth with the tools, knowledge, and leadership skills needed to excel in the field of strategy consulting.
In accordance with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 agenda, men and women enrolled in the Business Analyst Programme will be able to gain first-hand experience working side-by-side with BCG consultants and conducting business analysis for the firm’s vast portfolio of high-profile clients – spanning all BCG practice areas.
“Investing in and developing local talent has long been at the crux of BCG’s global and regional talent management strategy,” said Joerg Hildebrandt, senior partner & managing director at BCG Middle East.
“With this in mind, we are delighted to be launching our Business Analyst Programme in Saudi Arabia; we firmly believe that this initiative will help contribute to the creation of a high-potential, dynamic local talent pool in the Kingdom, one that includes both men and women. After all, a robust workforce is a key driver of a diverse, knowledge-based economy.”
BCG’s Business Analyst Programme is tailored for outstanding fresh graduates and targeted towards those who performed in the top 10 percent of their university. To start, as part of its ongoing search for talent, BCG has partnered with three universities in Saudi Arabia which are: the King Saud University, Al Faisal University and the King Fahd University of Petroleum and Mineral.
Moving forward, BCG is looking to expand the programme to other countries in the GCC. – TradeArabia News Service
