Public Sector Advisory 2026 Graduate Program

Applications for our Public Sector Advisory graduate program are now open. We are seeking motivated graduates who are ready to launch into a career different to the formulaic career path of a traditional consulting firm.

You will develop your expertise and understand how to effect positive change that your friends family and community will see each and every day.

But its not all about work. Youll be given a buddy to help you navigate office life as you settle in. Youll choose a mentor who will help guide your career. We host regular events and activities bringing together our close-knit team in a friendly and relaxed environment so you can get to know the people behind the professionals.
