Careers

What sets us apart

We are a boutique firm, and from time to time, we offer the opportunity to bring on 1-2 promising associates. This is a unique chance to grow into a top management consultant in financial services.

As our new team member, you will learn directly from truly experienced professionals, giving you the skills and guidance to develop quickly and successfully.

Our people

At Compendor, you will mostly work with Dutch and German colleagues and clients. English is the main language we use, though speaking Dutch or German is definitely a plus.

Our team is informal, pragmatic, and full of experts who also know how to keep things fun. We’re looking for new associates who are eager to learn, self-starters, and comfortable working in an unstructured, laid-back environment while delivering top-notch consulting.

If you’re adaptable and take initiative, you’ll get plenty of support to grow and succeed with us.

The opportunity

You will collaborate with one of our senior consultants and client experts on projects that typically last between 6 to 12 months for leading Tier 1 financial institutions in the areas of "The Randstad," Frankfurt, and Munich.

Typical projects focus on transforming key objectives—such as driving growth, implementing the latest regulations, managing costs, or facilitating post-merger integration—into manageable initiatives that deliver high-quality results on time. 

We provide a hybrid work environment, enabling you to work from home while occasionally visiting client sites. Throughout each project, you’ll gather and analyze information, conduct gap assessments, and formulate actionable recommendations. You’ll also monitor planning, resources, and budgets, present findings to client management, and implement solutions in partnership with their teams.

As an associate, you will receive training and coaching on how to better:

• Structure problems and take action to solve them
• Use data, facts, and logical reasoning to make rational decisions
• Comprehend content (e.g., email, articles, spreadsheets) and synthesize into a clear and communicable format (either written or verbally)
• Work effectively with diverse teams to come up with the best solution and move people and organizations to act
• Establish trust-based relationships with clients to better serve their organizations 
• Communicate effectively with all audiences, including senior leaders, in a structured manner
• Develop your leadership style, leveraging your own passions, strengths, and personal values

YOUR QUALIFICATIONS AND SKILLS

• A completed Bachelor’s or Master’s degree
• Relevant work experience in the financial services industry
• Ability to manage an independent workstream within a larger team project
• Strong collaborative skills to foster an inclusive environment across all organizational levels
• Comfort with ambiguous and rapidly changing situations
