Analyst: 28,000
These are roles for raw graduates or those with some sector specific post-grad work experience. As
recruiters we are rarely asked to find candidates at this level, so the figures come from the consulting
firms themselves.
Consultant: 50,000
Consultants at this grade typically already have three years delivery experience in consulting, or are fresh
recruits into consulting but with a recently obtained professional qualification or comparable level of
competence e.g. ACA, CIPD, blue-chip management training programme graduate.
Senior Consultant: 65,000
At this level the backgrounds of consultants start to diverge. Examples include: mid-tier strategy
house/boutique-experienced consultants with delivery experience; average performers with delivery
experience at a systems integrator or a full-service consultancy and some field management
responsibility; MBAs entering consulting for the first time.
Managing Consultant: 90,000
These tend to be consultants with deep project leading experience in the full-service consultancies, or
engagement managers/project leaders in boutiques. Sales involvement was claimed by about 60% of the
consultants we surveyed at this level.
Director/Salaried Partner: 195,000
These experienced consultants ranged from those with extensive delivery responsibilities at a boutique to
client relationship duties in general consulting.
