Do you want to work on complex and pressing challenges—the kind that bring together curious, ambitious, and determined leaders who strive to become better every day? If this sounds like you, you’ve come to the right place.

Your Impact

You will be based in our Toronto, Canada office as a part of the Market Intelligence team at Panorama. Your team harnesses a blend of banking and financial data sources including proprietary McKinsey data to help clients identify strategic opportunities, improve their financial planning, or benchmark their performance.

Your team is responsible for helping clients around the world define their strategy and value proposition, leveraging innovative data analysis and insights into retail banking customer segments.

You will collaborate with teams across McKinsey and clients worldwide. You will operate with a high degree of autonomy, responsibility and closely collaborate with McKinsey colleagues.

Your focus will be on measuring the value of customer segments globally and helping banks define their strategies and value propositions toward target segments.

In this role, you will split your time developing and delivering proprietary assets, supporting clients and engagement teams with your asset-backed expertise – applying your work in client setting.

You will lead deep-dive research on a variety of topics around banking, customer demographics, and regional trends. You will analyze large amounts of information in a quick and efficient manner and communicate key strategic insights from these analyses to both internal and external stakeholders.

You will devote time to developing a variety of proprietary databases, statistical and market models, and documents to help inform the decision making of both our clients and fellow McKinsey colleagues.

Your position will allow you to further build your skills in data/analytics, critical thinking, synthesis, and product development, while working in a dynamic business environment. In addition to getting direct exposure to clients, you will receive exceptional training as well as frequent coaching and mentoring from more senior colleagues.

Your Growth

Driving lasting impact and building long-term capabilities with our clients is not easy work. You are the kind of person who thrives in a high performance/high reward culture - doing hard things, picking yourself up when you stumble, and having the resilience to try another way forward.

In return for your drive, determination, and curiosity, we'll provide the resources, mentorship, and opportunities you need to become a stronger leader faster than you ever thought possible. Your colleagues—at all levels—will invest deeply in your development, just as much as they invest in delivering exceptional results for clients. Every day, you'll receive apprenticeship, coaching, and exposure that will accelerate your growth in ways you won’t find anywhere else.

When you join us, you will have:

Continuous learning: Our learning and apprenticeship culture, backed by structured programs, is all about helping you grow while creating an environment where feedback is clear, actionable, and focused on your development. The real magic happens when you take the input from others to heart and embrace the fast-paced learning experience, owning your journey.
A voice that matters: From day one, we value your ideas and contributions. You’ll make a tangible impact by offering innovative ideas and practical solutions, all while upholding our unwavering commitment to ethics and integrity. We not only encourage diverse perspectives, but they are critical in driving us toward the best possible outcomes.
Global community: With colleagues across 65+ countries and over 100 different nationalities, our firm’s diversity fuels creativity and helps us come up with the best solutions for our clients. Plus, you’ll have the opportunity to learn from exceptional colleagues with diverse backgrounds and experiences.
World-class benefits: On top of a competitive salary (based on your location, experience, and skills), we provide a comprehensive benefits package to enable holistic well-being for you and your family.
