healthcare clients—hospitals, insurers, investors—on strategy,
operations, and market analysis. The work is project-based and
fast-paced.
Who It's For: Problem-solvers with sharp analytical skills who thrive under pressure and aren’t afraid of Excel models and PowerPoint.
How to Break In: An MBA from a top school is a common path, but not always required. Case interview preparation is a must.
2024 Salary Range: $200,000 - $350,000 (Base + Performance Bonus). Partners can earn significantly more.
