Hi there,
In my experience working with all these profiles at McKinsey, I would say there are 3 main differences of the (Junior) Associate role compared with BAs
- You lead your own workstream within a project and you are fully responsible for defining and delivering work, including storylining, analysis, client relationship and tailored recommendations, ensuring high quality standards
- You start leading and coaching 1-2 BAs or client team members to deliver the work within your workstream
- You start contributing to the Firm beyond the project work, including developing proposals and collaborating with an office practice
Best,
Alberto
