Who We Are

Boston Consulting Group partners with leaders in business and society to tackle their most important challenges and capture their greatest opportunities. BCG was the pioneer in business strategy when it was founded in 1963. Today, we help clients with total transformation— inspiring complex change, enabling organizations to grow, building competitive advantage, and driving bottom-line impact.

To succeed, organizations must blend digital and human capabilities. Our diverse, global teams bring deep industry and functional expertise and a range of perspectives to spark change. BCG delivers solutions through leading-edge management consulting along with technology and design, corporate and digital ventures—and business purpose. We work in a uniquely collaborative model across the firm and throughout all levels of the client organization, generating results that allow our clients to thrive.

Working closely with BCG’s CFO and global Executive Committee, PSG is the team responsible for designing, developing, and executing world class evaluation, development, compensation and equity programs for our global Managing Directors and Partners (“MDPs”). These matters are of critical importance to both BCG and personally to our over 2,000 MDPs meaning that PSG is a highly visible, integral and trusted advisor in BCG’s global finance function.

The MDPs are the owners of BCG and responsible for driving the business within their markets and practice areas. At BCG we believe that having robust and transparent reward and evaluation arrangements helps incentivize our MDPs to grow and shape our business in a way that not only benefits our clients and people but also helps to fulfil one of BCG’s key purposes of unlocking the potential of those who advance the world.

We work within a fast-paced environment where precision, innovation and transparent communication are key to the firms MDP agenda. PSG play a vital role in both responding to and anticipating challenges in a way that allows us to maintain our position as employer of choice for the most talented and pioneering leaders in the global consulting market.

After an initial period of apprenticeship where you will integrate into BCG and build an understanding of BCG’s Compensation and Equity Framework, you will eventually become a primary contact for MDPs and BCG leadership within the North America region, specifically relating to BCG’s MDP compensation and equity framework. This means you will be the key point-of-contact for MDPs within your markets.

Our MDP Compensation & Equity programs include a variety of bonus plans, deferred compensation and partnership equity components; our Program Directors/Senior Directors are responsible for leading, developing and maintaining these programs in the markets they oversee. The Program Directors will establish a deep country level understanding of the local programs in the context of market norms and legislation and how these programs interact with BCG’s global partnership structure. They will need to adapt quickly to changing environments to ensure these programs remain competitive, have a strong ability to assess risk and suitability both for the local market and within our global framework.

Program Directors/Senior Directors are also responsible for overseeing broader aspects of the MDP career lifecycle, including international mobility, external MDP hiring and departures from the BCG partnership. There are also many opportunities for this group to team both within PSG and the broader firm on highly impactful global projects related to the evolution of the partnership.
