Description & Requirements

Proceed with Pride is Bain’s client selection and acceptance process. Developed in partnership with our Industry and Capability Practice Areas, it helps ensure we can be proud of the work we take on. When concerns arise, Partners are encouraged to engage the Proceed with Pride team for guidance and discussion.
The focus is nearly always on identifying the right mitigating actions to enable us to Proceed with Pride, although in some instances we will jointly decide not to proceed.

In this role, you will support the Senior Manager, APAC Client Risk, and the APAC RRO, helping to shape and execute the region’s approach to client selection and acceptance. You’ll be a key driver of strategic thinking and operational execution across risk efforts in the region.
