Yes, LBS is a strong option for consulting. Around 40–45% of MBA graduates go into consulting roles each year. Top firms like McKinsey, BCG, and Bain are regular recruiters. Others like Deloitte, Strategy&, Kearney, and Oliver Wyman also hire in good numbers. Consulting has consistently been the top placement sector in LBS employment reports.
The London location gives students direct access to firm events and networking opportunities. Most consulting firms hold recruitment events on or near campus. LBS also has a strong Consulting Club where second-year students help others with case prep and mock interviews. The 15–21 month flexible format gives students time to do internships, which many use to gain consulting experience before landing full-time offers.
For anyone targeting consulting in the UK or Europe, LBS offers the right mix of brand value, recruiter access, and practical prep.
