Here's what they have to say

The satisfaction of being recognized for your work and of working in a positive environment

Geoffroy, Senior Consultant – Quantitative Finance Practice

After completing my engineering degree and a research master's in nanotechnology, I worked in the energy and retail sectors at consulting firms and digital services companies within the Big Four. I then joined Quanteam in 2018 as a full-stack developer, working on structured and exotic products for a major French bank. I had already wanted to move into the banking and finance sector, where I had begun training, and I was reassured to see that, through its selective recruitment process, Quanteam was a key player in the market. From the very beginning, I felt the firm's support in guiding its consultants through training. Thanks to Quanteam, I was also able to strengthen my skills by pursuing a Master's in Quantitative Finance through evening classes, which allowed me to join the Quant Practice and combine my technical skills with my understanding of business, operational, and functional challenges.

I wanted to join a consulting firm specializing in banking and finance

Salim, Senior Business Manager at Quanteam

I decided to join the firm in 2020, and I'm very happy to be working full-time here as part of a people-oriented company that encourages professional growth and recognizes hard work. There's a real synergy among the teams, as well as a great atmosphere that we experience every day and at the firm's after-work gatherings and events. The close relationships we carefully cultivate with our clients and our consultants mirror the ones we have internally with our teams and with management. Above all, I feel that my work is valued for what it's worth and that it has a direct impact on my career progression.

I've always had great assignments at QUANTEAM

François, Consultant Manager – Quantitative Finance Practice

As an engineer by training, I joined the Quanteam team over 10 years ago, following a mixed experience at a competing consulting firm. It was the project they offered me that initially attracted me (pre-trade support in the trading room), but it was the firm's commitment to its people and the support they provide that made me stay. I've always had great assignments at Quanteam. I was able to join the London office for several months and have grown professionally thanks to the many internal career opportunities. Quanteam is highly regarded by our clients, and the firm offers excellent assignments with compelling technical and functional challenges. For those looking for more than just an assignment from a consulting firm, Quanteam is the ideal place.

Exciting opportunities in the banking sector and a personal touch from the very first interaction

Ghaoutia, Manager – Practice Transformation and Organization

After working at several consulting firms and digital services companies, primarily in project management and client-side project leadership roles, I joined Quanteam in 2021. I had a very attractive offer from a software company, but I quickly sensed a warm, human connection and a sense of kindness during my initial interactions with Quanteam—these factors made all the difference and convinced me to join the firm. The quality and diversity of the assignments offered in the banking sector, the firm's specialty, were also a significant draw for me. I've actually been able to take on two great assignments (project management and consulting) and have coached consultants ahead of their assignment interviews. Two years later, I don't regret my choice. I still find that sense of closeness and willingness to collaborate every day, particularly with the sales team but also within the project teams.

Everyone can find their place and grow

Marc, Business Analysis Project Manager at Quanteam / Co-Director of the Operations & Finance Practice

I have been a consultant for over 20 years, working with various banks and insurance companies. I joined Quanteam's Paris office seven years ago because I appreciated the company's people-oriented values from our very first meetings—values that I uphold every day. Management also remains very accessible and transparent in its communication with the firm's employees, as was the case during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is all the more appreciated given that it hasn't been the case everywhere. Finally, the diverse and varied assignments offered allow everyone to grow both professionally and personally.

The freedom to choose your assignments is a real plus

Mathieu, Consultant Manager – Practice Transformation and Organization

I joined Quanteam in 2019, after gaining experience in consulting, first as an Equity Derivatives Analyst and then as an IT Project Manager. I currently serve as a Scrum Master/BA within an anti-fraud team. What I appreciate about Quanteam is the breadth and diversity of the assignments offered, as well as the firm's strong presence in the banking and financial sectors. The firm listens to its consultants' preferences and gives them a choice of assignments, which isn't the case everywhere. In terms of career development, I chose to join the Transformation and Organization Practice to gain new skills from the experts there. I've completed several certification courses, which really makes me feel that the firm is investing in me.
