Joseph’s Management Consulting Qualifications
Experience level: Associate Partner
60+ people coached for Management Consulting
I spent 7 years at Bain & Company in London, leaving as an Associate Partner. During my time there I conducted 100+ live and virtual case and fit interviews — giving me a first-hand view of exactly what separates a borderline candidate from an offer. I also served as On-Campus Lead for Bain's MBA recruiting team, conducting individual coffee chats and case prep for hundreds of students, as well as running large format group case interview prep sessions. I also know this process from the other side of the table: I switched into consulting myself during my MBA (LBS, Class of 2019), and used a coach during that transition myself, which is a big part of why I'm now eager to help others do the same. I coach both case and behavioural/fit interviews. Beyond this I managed to get promoted early in Bain London, and navigated the consulting career path. I mentored (formally and informally) more than 15 junior consultants in my time at Bain, and get a lot of energy from seeing others follow their passions and showcasing their skills to land amazing work for clients.

About Joseph
I spent 7 years at Bain & Company in London, leaving as an Associate Partner. Along the way, I served as On-Campus Lead for Bain's MBA recruiting team, conducting 100+ live and virtual case and fit interviews — so I've sat on the other side of the table more times than most coaches ever will. Before Bain, I switched into consulting myself during my MBA (LBS MBA Class of 2019), which means I remember exactly what the process feels like from the candidate's chair — the ambiguity, the nerves, the sense that everyone else seems to have it figured out when you haven't. I coach case and behavioural interviews. My sessions are fully virtual and tailored to you.
Why do I coach?
I used a coach myself during my own transition into consulting, and it made a real difference — enough that I've wanted to pay it forward ever since. Having spent years on Bain's hiring side, I also saw the same pattern over and over: most candidates don't need more frameworks, they need someone who's actually made the hiring decisions to tell them honestly what their gaps are and how to close them. That's the gap I try to fill. I like coaching because it's the rare kind of work where you get to watch someone go from anxious and unsure to genuinely ready, often in the space of just a few sessions. I get energised by supporting candidates on their professional journeys - so please do reach out and let's get an intro chat to see how I can best help you!
