Consulting and StrategyFull-TimeSenior-level(6+ yrs)
Job Description
Genesis Analytics is the largest economics-based consulting firm in Africa. Our purpose is to unlock value in Africa using our analytical capabilities to improve decision-making and, through better decisions, unlock substantial value for our clients and society.
We are looking for an A-Grade Management Consultant who doesn’t just advise from the sidelines but gets onto the field to help our Financial Services clients build the future. You are a long-term partner to clients, embedded with some of the most interesting players in Financial Services across Africa, such as banks, MFIs, telcos, and Fintechs, helping them navigate complex shifts not just by telling them what’s wrong, but by architecting and deploying what’s right.
Key Responsibilities
Bridge the Gap: Use your bilingual skills to speak both the language of high-level strategy and the gritty reality of operational execution.
Explore & Innovate: You’ll have the license to explore new concepts, from emerging fintech integrations to radical process overhauls, and figure out how they actually fit the client’s ecosystem.
Own the Outcome: Success for us isn't measured by a "sign-off" on a deck; it’s measured by deployments, realised ROI, and the long-term health of the client's business.
Build the Relationship: We don’t do "hit-and-run" consulting. You’ll be cultivating long-term collaborations, becoming the trusted advisor who partners with clients and helps them see the seeds sprout.
Qualifications and Experience Required
Education: A Bachelor's or Master's degree in a quantitative field such as Economics, Finance, Statistics, Data Science, or a related discipline.
Experience: 5–8+ years of professional experience, with a proven mix of industry (Financial Services) and consulting exposure.
Mindset: Hands-on by default, comfortable diving deep into data or workflows to identify and solve friction points.
Collaboration: Enthusiastic about both the whiteboard strategy phase and the operational go-live phase.
Expertise: A genuine interest in the evolution of finance (banking, insurance, or wealth management) and payments systems, digital finance, and digital financial inclusion.
Analytical Skills: High attention to detail and a meticulous approach to data and analysis.
Communication: Good written and verbal communication skills.
