Values
Be Brave
We stand behind our beliefs while exploring what drives them. We stand up for what is right and persevere through difficulty. We venture into the unknown, staying open to our greatest possibilities.
Lead With Heart
We build relationships with clients and colleagues that last, grounded in transparency, authenticity, and trust. We love what we do and have fun while we do it. And we combine this passion with rigor and skill to drive sustainable performance.
Strive For Breakthroughs
We bring deep expertise and profound curiosity to the pursuit of ambitious ideas and uncommon insights. We ask bigger questions, seek diverse perspectives, and challenge ourselves to find the most powerful and sustainable solutions.
Work As One
We succeed as a unified team of colleagues and clients, achieving together what separately would be beyond our reach. We care for and develop one another. We learn from differences, overcome divisions, and celebrate our shared achievements.
Own Our Impact
We act as entrepreneurs and stewards of the firm. We own the journey, acting with integrity at every step. And we own our impact, holding ourselves to the highest standards to deliver stronger results for our clients, better opportunities for each other, and lasting change for society.
What sets us apart
Financial Services & Risk Heritage
Banking and insurance projects dominate Sydney workload—think capital optimisation or digital‑lending strategy. Risk modelling roots give engagements a quantitative edge. FS focus makes OW a feeder to finance industry roles.
Boutique Feel, Global Name
<50 local staff ensure partner proximity and a tight community; Friday socials are a staple. Yet the brand carries global weight under Marsh McLennan. Analysts enjoy boutique culture with big‑firm credibility.
Employee Development Focus
Leadership aims to grow consultants to partner rather than churn, so mentoring and tailored staffing are priorities. Feedback loops are frequent and personal. Overseas project or transfer requests are entertained early.
Niche Expanding Beyond Finance
New pushes into tech, aviation and analytics diversify project mix. Analysts keen on sector variety can volunteer for these growing practices.
Competitive Pay, Sustainable Hours
Compensation sits just below MBB, with target 55–65 hour weeks. Peaks arise around regulatory deadlines, but managers address overload promptly.
