A CLOSE-KNIT TEAM WITH A SHARED ETHOS
Our Team
We’re a boutique consultancy by design — senior-led, collaborative, and focused on doing exceptional work with people we respect.
Principles in Action
Our Values
Clarity
We deliver clarity when it counts. In high-stakes moments, we bring sharp thinking, structured narratives, and a clear point of view.
Rigour
We combine deep primary research with sound analytical methods to generate insights that are both evidence-based and commercially grounded.
Longevity
We take a long-term view in how we build relationships, contribute to the industry, and support our clients beyond the deal. We measure success not just by number of transactions, but by the lasting value and impact we help create.
Our Partnerships
Expanding Access
to Strategy Careers
We’re proud to support initiatives that broaden access to strategy consulting for students from underrepresented and lower-income backgrounds. Through long-term partnerships with the University of Oxford, Cambridge University Association Football Club, and Central Foundation Boys’ School, we help create meaningful pathways into the industry.
Careers at GCSUniversity of Oxford Crankstart Scholars

Paid summer internships
Mentorship and career guidance
Priority consideration for graduate roles at GCS
My internship at GCS gave me invaluable exposure to the firm’s work and culture. By the end of the summer, I was certain I wanted to return full-time — and I’m grateful I was given the opportunity. Having that early insight made the transition into my role much smoother.”

Mentorship and career guidance
Priority consideration for internships and graduate roles at GCS
The Pre-Associate internship provided an excellent introduction into consulting. It offered me hands-on experience on exciting projects, working with an immensely bright team of consultants from whom I learned - and continue to learn - a great deal!”
