Theodora – Manager

ENS Cachan, PhD Université Panthéon-Sorbonne

Why I joined

After four years in risk management and a PhD in Economics, which allowed me to connect both the academic and professional worlds, I wanted to work in a consulting firm in strategy in order to use original methods and propose innovative solutions.
Eleven meets all the criteria I was looking for. First, the diversity of sectors and missions fits into a context of growth and development where the digital revolution profoundly transforms business models. Second, the intellectual and analytical richness on both strategic and data issues encourages interactions and fosters a dynamic and challenging environment. Finally, the open, creative and collaborative corporate culture of eleven leads us to work directly with the firm’s partners, and to be involved in the missions.

Assignments

I have contributed to the internationalization of a leading media company, from the search of interesting markets to the implantation in these markets. The mission was particularly varied and combined the opportunity and competitive analysis in several countries, the identification of potential targets, making contact with these targets, the organization of a direct implantation, and the negotiation of partnerships.

Hélène – Consultant, Data Scientist

CentraleSupélec Paris

Why I joined

I chose to join eleven because of its unique positioning, which allows me to be a data scientist as well as a strategy consultant. I wanted to work on business issues without abandoning the technical aspect, which is for me a true source of value creation. In hindsight, the autonomy that we are offered on assignments and the friendly working atmosphere are also major assets of the firm to allow consultants to flourish.

Assignments

Since my arrival I have been able to work on assignments combining business and data. For example, I have had the opportunity to analyze internet customer feedback and thus identify new innovative and digital offers for a player in the aeronautics industry. I also worked with a bank to design and develop an automatic alerting tool that helps bank advisors in managing their customer relationship.

ARNAUD – CONSULTANT, DATA SCIENTIST

Polytechnique, Imperial College

Why I joined

I did an internship at eleven during my studies and I didn’t hesitate to come back when I had the opportunity to do so 2 years later. After an experience as a data scientist for a London-based fintech company, I wanted to work in an environment with high technical requirements but also strategic and entrepreneurial dimensions. I really believe eleven provides such components through its various offers.

The human size of the firm, the trust placed in the consultants and the measures put in place to facilitate the development of skills were also key elements in my decision.

Assignments

My first engagement illustrates quite well the variety of missions offered by eleven: Within an Artificial Intelligence program created for a large CAC 40 company, I piloted 2 use cases around predictive maintenance, from the ideation to the industrialization of solutions on the cloud.

More broadly, this program was part of the client’s initiative to raise awareness on data transformation. In addition, I also worked on a Start-up Studio that led to the creation of a Business Unit within a major energy group as well as on pricing issues in the real estate sector

The team is one of the things that makes Eleven special. The tech/start up-like mindset of the team members makes eleven a remarkable environment for learning and personal growth.

Why I joined

After an academic path and first experiences in public administration, I was looking to join a strategy consulting firm in order to broaden my horizons by discovering various industries. The digital positioning of eleven has perfectly met this expectation, since the technological challenges we work on are common to many industries (new distribution channels, IoT, data exploitation…) : helping our clients to better understand the impact of these technologies on their industry, then to exploit them to build competitive advantages is indeed our core business. Our interlocutors are at the highest decision level within companies, and our recommendations often lead to major strategic changes for our clients.

I also appreciate the firm’s atmosphere, the great cohesion within the teams and the goodwill that prevails, both among colleagues and with our managers and partners.

Eric – Consultant, Data Scientist

CentraleSupélec Paris

Why I joined

I am convinced that the digital revolution is deeply transforming the processes of corporates’ strategic decision-making and has become key to beat competition. Thus, pursuing a career in digital consulting places me at the heart of the transformation in which I wished to evolve. Eleven appealed to me for several reasons: the firm specifically tackles the digital revolution challenges, including AI and Data Science, and rapidly gets its consultants exposed to high-impact projects. On top of that, while maintaining its differentiating positioning, eleven still preserves a human-sized structure embodied by an entrepreneurial spirit that creates a highly creative and collaborative culture.

Assignments

During an engagement for a major French retail bank, I was able to further develop not only my technical skills but also my communication skills by working hand in hand with both data and business profiles as well as top management and operational teams. From the conception of relevant business cases to the development and deployment of machine learning models, I had the opportunity to experience real-world machine learning issues for a large financial institution.

Arnaud – Manager

Why I joined

After 3 years in a top 3 generalist management consulting firm, which allowed me to build solid consulting and methodological foundations as well as to gain knowledge on various industries and functions, I wanted to work in a more agile and entrepreneurial structure, and to finally specialize.

eleven offered me to fulfill both these desires, as well as to focus on the growth coming from digital opportunities. Moreover, discovering eleven during the recruitment process awakened the tech-savvy person in me, and it is a pleasure to learn every day from passionate and brilliant people, may them be data scientists or consultants

Assignments

I have worked for a leading construction player on the adoption of BIM, a technology that is currently reshaping the industry’s value chain. The diverse streams covered during the assignment made it particularly interesting : from building a high-level strategic perspective on the European market to numerous on-site tours in several European countries, not to mention the building of an in-depth expertise on the technology itself. The combination of these approaches, complemented with a hand-in-hand collaboration with a high-level client i, was a formative and rewarding experience. We delivered to our client a strategic vision taking into account the field reality of its operations and external environment.

Mathilde – Senior Consultant

Why I joined

The two reasons why I joined eleven are part of its unique positioning : an undisputed expertise on digital and data, and a deeply-rooted entrepreneurial mindset. This mindset translates not only into consultants’ autonomy and high-level exposure during assignments, but also into the commitment of each consultant in elevens’ daily life and growth. eleven also offers a remarkable learning environment when it comes to building sectorial expertise or mastering technical stakes, especially during Data assignments. Last but not least, I truly appreciate eleven’s team spirit and stimulating working environment.

Assignments
