4 weeks ago

Canberra, Australia KordaMentha Full time

**Company Description**
At KordaMentha, you’ll make an impact from day one. We’re looking for ambitious, well-rounded graduates and final-year students ready to tackle real-world business challenges.

Join a team that thrives on creativity, collaboration, and bold thinking. We go beyond the standard approach—asking ‘what if?’ and ‘why not?’ to uncover innovative solutions that help our clients grow, protect, and recover value.

Our award-winning graduate program is designed to put you in control of your career. Skip the traditional rotations and dive straight into one of our specialist areas. Gain hands-on experience working on high-profile and diverse engagements, with expert mentoring, tailored support, study assistance, and training to help you excel.

At KordaMentha, we foster a culture of respect, inclusion, and integrity. You’ll be part of a supportive team that values diversity and encourages you to bring your unique perspective. Through regular social events and community initiatives, you’ll build strong connections and make a meaningful impact beyond the workplace.

Applications for our Public Sector Advisory graduate program are now open. We are seeking motivated graduates who are ready to launch into a career different to the formulaic career path of a traditional consulting firm.

Here, you'll be motivated by real impact. You will experience hands-on apprenticeship with Partners who pride themselves in being deeply involved in the work. You'll contribute to the growth of the business and get exposure to senior leaders in Government.

You will develop your expertise and understand how to effect positive change that your friends, family and community will see each and every day.

But it’s not all about work. You’ll be given a buddy to help you navigate office life as you settle in. You’ll choose a mentor who will help guide your career. We host regular events and activities, bringing together our close-knit team in a friendly and relaxed environment so you can get to know the people behind the professionals. You’ll also become a member of Accelerate, our young professionals networking group.

You can also make a positive difference in your community through regular charity and industry events. Whether it’s volunteering at local food rescue venues or bike rides to raise money for children’s charities, you can get involved and give back.
**Qualifications**
- Excellent results in a tertiary degree of your choice (Law, Commerce/Business/Economics/Accounting, PPE, Engineering, Actuarial/Mathematics or Sustainability)
- Proficiency in quantitative and qualitative analysis
- Strong communication skills, including the ability to synthesise complex information in both oral and written formats
- An interest in public policy and government
- Strong business acumen and systems-thinking
- Comfort working independently and taking ownership of end-to-end problems including taking initiative to solve problems holistically
- Excellent relationship building skills and ability to collaborate effectively with diverse client and internal stakeholders
- You must be an Australian citizen

**Additional Information**
Applications close: 11:59pm Sunday 30th March 2025.

At KordaMentha, we believe there is strength in difference. Our entrepreneurial spirit expands the possibilities for action. We approach situations, challenges, and opportunities with optimism, curiosity, and diversity of thought. We seek novel solutions to problems and encourage unconventional and innovative approaches.
