As an Associate/Lead Associate, you will play a hands-on role in delivering high-priority strategic work across WTW. You will work on a small number of focused projects at any one time, partnering closely with colleagues across the business. You will help structure complex problems, gather and analyse data, develop insights, and turn those insights into clear, practical recommendations.

The Role:

• Help define and structure strategic questions and project scope

• Conduct quantitative and qualitative analysis, including financial modelling, market and competitor analysis, and internal performance assessment

• Gather insights through research, interviews, and workshops with subject-matter experts

• Synthesize findings into clear insights and practical recommendations

• Prepare concise, high-quality materials for senior leadership discussions

• Support planning and follow-through on agreed strategic initiatives

• Own workstreams or small projects and review the work of more junior team members
