I’m an ex-McKinsey Engagement Manager with 10+ years in strategy, M&A integration, and commercial transformation across global industrials. Currently leading the pre-close integration planning for a major merger at Johnson Matthey, so when I coach case frameworks, I’m drawing from live deal experience, not memory.
I specialise in McKinsey-style interviewer-led cases, MECE structuring, and PEI story coaching. I’ve sat on both sides of the consulting interview table - as a candidate who cracked MBB, and as a senior practitioner who has evaluated talent and built real frameworks on live engagements.
My coaching is direct, structured, and tailored. I won’t just walk you through a case - I’ll show you exactly where your thinking breaks down and how to fix it before it costs you an offer.
If you’re targeting McKinsey, BCG, Bain, or tier-1 strategy roles, let’s work together.
My sessions are structured, direct, and tailored to where you actually are, not a generic walkthrough.
For PEI, I start by mapping your CV, real experiences, and future aspirations together. Most candidates prepare stories in isolation - a leadership example here, an impact story there. I insist on building a coherent narrative that runs consistently across all three so your answers feel authentic, not rehearsed. Interviewers notice the difference.
For cases, I focus on sharpening the thinking behind your structure, not just the structure itself. I push hard on “so what?” and “why?” at every step because that’s what separates candidates who sound structured from those who actually think like consultants. Real case experience comes out when you can defend your logic, not just present it.
Expect honest, specific feedback. I won’t tell you the answer was good if it wasn’t.
