WHO YOU’LL WORK WITH
Over the past two decades, Bain has formalized industry and capability areas, internally known as "Practices", integral to how Bain wins and delivers results to its clients. A practice is considered a business unit of Bain. The primary role of a Practice is to drive growth for Bain in a particular industry or capability, together with offices, and boosting Bain's expertise and commercial excellence.
The Strategy & Transformation Practice is one of the largest practices at Bain, and at the heart of some of our biggest client success stories. We’re constantly pushing the boundaries of innovation, with new hooks, points of view, products, tools and delivery models that bring together the best thinking from our most successful client heads and senior strategists, to stretch our client’s definition of full potential, embed change within their organizations, and deliver results. The Strategy & Transformation Practice team works very closely with partners, senior managers and teams to bring Bain’s best experience and the latest tools and innovations to bear across sectors and offices. They are integral in helping Bain win new cases and advising our case teams on difficult strategy and transformation questions.
