Administrative Assistant

Boston Consulting Group•Atlanta, GA

About The Position

Candidates must be available to begin full-time employment on the scheduled class start date of May 18, 2026. You are essential to our office and our success. We are Boston Consulting Group (BCG), a 60-years young strategy consulting firm. Over the past few years, BCG has been ranked #1 in Consulting Magazine's annual 'Best Firms to Work For' survey, #12 on Glassdoor's Best Places to Work list. While we are proud of our heritage, we are even more excited about our future, and if you are the person we are looking for, we'd be thrilled to share it with you. As an Administrative Assistant, you are the backbone of the function. You ensure that the Project Leaders (PLs), Principals and Directors you support have what they need to seamlessly serve the needs of our clients, while also meeting their internal commitments and goals. You anticipate customer need, look ahead and prevent problems from arising. This position involves scheduling (and rescheduling) meetings, booking (and unbooking) travel, managing case team logistics, keeping track of time and expenses, and keeping up with the fast pace of our Consulting Team. This role starts with a 60-day in-office onboarding period designed to build strong foundations and accelerate learning. At BCG, our people and relationships are at the heart of everything we do. We believe that in-person work is essential to our culture, mentorship, and professional development. That's why we operate on a hybrid model, with the expectation that team members will be in the office 3 to 5 days per week. This role is designed for those who thrive in a dynamic, collaborative environment and is not intended for remote or virtual work. Administrative Assistants (“AAs”) help shape our culture by actively participating in office life, and collaborate across functions to help fellow Business Services Team (BST) members. Our philosophy is to grow by growing others, and you become more tenured, you will serve as role models to more junior members of the Admin team. We work hard together, and we go out of our way to support each other – we want everyone to be successful, individually and as a team. We won't define a career path for you – but some of our AAs we've hired in this role have gone on to have long and successful careers as Executive Assistants at BCG; others have gone into work in one of our many Practice Areas; some have managed teams or rotated through a number of other functions. Your career at BCG will be at the intersection of your skills and desires and the needs of our business; it will only be limited by your investment.
