Discover Your Career Opportunities at BCG Platinion

BCG Platinion offers you the chance to face digital challenges of the future in a team of experts. Our IT Architects and IT Consultants take on project responsibility from day one.

Our IT Architects analyze and optimize existing IT architectures of our clients and design modern
digital target architectures considering innovative technologies. From the first sketch to a powerful IT landscape, they stand by the client as technical experts and introduce modern software development and working methods. They always keep an eye on IT development and impact within the company. On (inter)national projects, they form the interface between IT Consultants and small software development teams.

Our IT Consultants understand both business contexts and technical solutions and find unconventional approaches to IT management issues. They define requirements, develop business cases, evaluate technical solutions and their feasibility, and digitize business processes. They support clients in implementing agile working methods and DevOps and coach them on using these methods.

It is important to us that you – especially at the beginning of your career – gain multifaceted experiences. Therefore, colleagues at the entry levels of our IT Architect and IT Consultant tracks are not permanently assigned to a practice group but can engage in several industries. With increasing experience and seniority, specialization in one industry is possible and desired. Both career paths enable advancement from IT Consultant/IT Architect to Senior IT Consultant/Senior IT Architect to Manager/Lead IT Architect and Principal/Principal IT Architect to Director/Capability Director and finally Managing Director. A switch of career paths, e.g., from IT Consultant to IT Architect track and vice versa, is possible at any time. Additionally, one can specialize in the Chapter Enterprise Solutions, Cybersecurity, or Agile@Scale with us.
 

Education Opportunities

Through daily collaboration, where the team supports each other and advances IT projects with conviction and passion, as well as through an individual training program, our colleagues learn to use and continuously develop talents. As part of BCG, we benefit from both worlds: the individual IT training offerings of BCG Platinion and the broad knowledge and experience pool of BCG. The personal development of our employees is highly prioritized from day one: after a varied onboarding week where all newbies get to know many points of contact within the company, a training phase with personal and virtual training follows. Various contacts within the company on peer and mentor levels also accompany the individual career path. Thus, all employees undergo a continuous feedback process throughout the year with valuable advice for personal development. Joint career development discussions take place in regular cycles, where one receives extensive
feedback from two colleagues and discusses the path to the next career level. Thanks to our internal knowledge management, there is also always the opportunity to access a large knowledge network and share individual know-how.
