Description & Requirements

WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH

You'll join Bain's Global Business Services (GBS) team in Warsaw, which was established to provide best-in-class internal support to Bain's leadership and consulting teams across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. GBS plays a critical role in enabling Bain teams to deliver exceptional results to clients worldwide, operating as One Team - One Bain.

WHERE YOU'LL FIT WITHIN THE TEAM

As part of the Bain GBS Academy for Professionals, you'll begin your journey in an intensive, structured program designed to prepare you for success as a Manager's Assistant.

Your responsibilities may include:

• Managing complex calendars and international travel arrangements using MS Outlook and other internal Bain tools
• Supporting Managers with internal, non-consulting assignments
• Building and maintaining strong working relationships with senior stakeholders and key contacts
• Providing logistical and technical support for meetings, workshops, and conferences
• Conducting online research
• Processing time and expense submissions accurately and efficiently
