BCG was the pioneer in business strategy when it was founded in 1963. Today, we help clients with total transformation-inspiring complex change, enabling organizations to grow, building competitive advantage, and driving bottom-line impact.

To succeed, organizations must blend digital and human capabilities. Our diverse, global teams bring deep industry and functional expertise and a range of perspectives to spark change. BCG delivers solutions through leading-edge management consulting along with technology and design, corporate and digital ventures—and business purpose.

What You'll Do
Staffing is a business-critical function at the heart of what we do at BCG. As a Staffing Specialist in our Oslo office, you will help shape both people experiences and client impact by assigning the right consultants to the right projects. Working closely with fellow staffers, your Staffing manager and the Business Director, you’ll ensure optimal deployment of consulting teams to projects and business development efforts across the Nordics.

You’ll be part of the Oslo staffing team, collaborating closely with the wider Nordic Staffing team to solve complex staffing challenges that balance people development, business priorities, and client demands.

In this role, you will also contribute to broader HR-related topics, working together with HR and case leaders on different matters related to staffing.

Key Responsibilities Include

• Managing and updating staffing information in BCG’s internal tools (e.g., SAM, SharePoint, OneDrive)

• Driving staffing-related analysis to support effective decision-making

• Collaborating with key stakeholders, including HR, Finance, Global Staffing, and the local leadership team

This is a unique opportunity to sit at the intersection of business priorities and people development—helping our teams thrive while supporting BCG’s impact with clients.

What You'll Bring
We welcome candidates with various backgrounds and levels of experience. What matters most is a strong sense of ownership, sound judgment, and a positive “can do” mindset.

• You bring fairness and transparency to your decisions, striving to offer all consultants equal opportunities to succeed
