Arrive fresh. Leave with a deck a board has read
No consulting experience required — and we mean it. Engineers, designers, economists, and social scientists wanted. You'll work directly with a real organisation's leadership for a cycle and leave with a board-ready deliverable you helped build.
When we recruit
We recruit twice a year, once per consulting cycle. The cycles themselves run October–January and March–June.
Recruits in September
For the October–January consulting cycle.
Recruits in January/February
For the March–June consulting cycle.

Where you start
Both roles are real work with a real client, not a simulation or a case competition.
Consultant
No experience required — and we mean it. Our consultants are engineers, designers, economists, and social scientists who arrive fresh and learn on the job, with a trained team and a Team Leader around them. People sometimes talk themselves out of applying because they think they need consulting experience first — you don't, and it shouldn't stop you.
Team Leader
Team Leaders lead a consulting team through a cycle. Experience is wanted here: the usual path is one cycle as a Consultant, then stepping up to Team Leader the next. You'll own scope, client relationship, and quality for your project.
A cycle, from your side
-
You're selected as a 180 Degrees Consultant
Before the cycle
Applications, then interviews. We recruit for judgement and curiosity, not for a CV that already says "consulting".
-
Training, then a real client
Start of cycle
You're placed in a team of 4–6 with a Team Leader, on a scope the client has signed.
-
The work, and the review
The cycle
Analysis, client sessions, and a mid-point review. Every deliverable passes our quality system before the client sees it — the reviewer teaches, and you do every rewrite yourself.
-
You present to the board
End of cycle
You hand over a board-ready deck and every underlying analysis behind it.
Come meet us first
We run information sessions and social events each recruitment window.

What members say
We won't write these ourselves. Two slots are reserved for real, attributed quotes from members who have finished a cycle.
Ready when the window opens
Applications open in September and again in January/February. Until then, follow us or write to us directly — we answer.
