The opportunity

Are you an engineer who wants to turn analysis and improvement ideas into real results on the factory floor?

At EFESO, we work side by side with leading industrial companies to improve manufacturing performance and build sustainable Operations Excellence capabilities.

We are looking for a junior Management Consultant to join our MAKE Practice in Stockholm.

You will work with experienced colleagues and client teams to understand operational challenges, analyse losses and turn insights into measurable improvements. We are looking for someone with a strong analytical foundation, first-hand experience from a factory environment and a genuine interest in manufacturing.

Industrial AI is increasingly part of how we work, so curiosity about data, analytics and AI is important, but previous AI experience is not required.

What you will do

  • Work alongside experienced consultants and client teams in manufacturing environments
  • Analyse operational performance and identify improvement opportunities
  • Support Operations Excellence projects and implementation activities
  • Contribute to areas such as Lean, WCOM, TPM and performance improvement
  • Use data and AI-enabled tools to strengthen analysis and problem solving
  • Gradually take on more responsibility as your experience grows

Is this you?

You are likely to bring:
  • 0–3 years of relevant professional experience
  • A Master's degree in Industrial Engineering & Management, Mechanical Engineering, Production Engineering or similar
  • Experience from a factory or manufacturing environment, for example through employment, an internship, summer job or thesis project
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
  • A genuine interest in manufacturing, Operations Excellence and new technology
  • Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset
Fluent English and Swedish are required.

The role includes travel to client sites, primarily within the Nordics, and is based in Stockholm. Being close to colleagues and learning together is an important part of your first years at EFESO.

Why EFESO Nordics?

At EFESO, you will learn by doing.

You will work close to our clients' operations, combining structured problem solving with hands-on implementation and learning from experienced industrial consultants.
You will develop your Operations Excellence capabilities while gaining exposure to how data and Industrial AI are changing manufacturing.
