Communications

Connecting the firm with the world
Our global communications colleagues build the firm’s reputation, engage communities, demonstrate the impact we have for clients and in the world, and inform and connect our colleagues to each other and the firm. The function is comprised of several groups, each creating and disseminating distinctive content and engaging internal and external communities through a range of communications channels.

Featured Roles

External Communications

Our external communications team translates complex subject matter into clear, engaging content for a variety of audiences including clients, communities, colleagues, potential candidates, alumni and the media. These Communications colleagues work with firm and practice leaders to share insights about McKinsey, our research findings, our impact globally and in communities as well as how McKinsey’s mission and purpose comes to life.

Internal Communications

The internal communications team ensures our more than 30,000 colleagues stay informed about all parts of our firm including our pro bono and social impact work, our insights in 20+ industry sectors, news from our affinity networks, information about firm policies and news, and communications from our Global Managing Partner. Our work encourages collaboration and connections among firm members and celebrates our values, our work, and our people.

Client Communications

Our client communications professionals work alongside our consulting teams to help our work resonate with clients and inspire real change. The team provides expert support, tools, and training to clients and teams around the world to help communicate our recommendations, analysis and insights in ways that are clear and compelling, in the boardroom and across the client organization.

Meet our people

“Being a communicator, McKinsey always stood out for me as a brand because of its reputation for rigor and high-quality insights. That, coupled with the ability to work on some of the most pressing issues facing business and society globally, makes being here an unparalleled opportunity.”

Graham, Deputy Head of Media Relations, London

“I find the community at McKinsey welcoming and very accommodating to working moms. We have amazing resources – flex schedules, back-up care, and so much more. There’s a bit of comfort in knowing you can reach out and get support. You’re able to do your job well, make space to be a good parent and be supported as you balance all of it.”

Maria, Manager of External Relations, San Francisco

“Publishing has been an essential component of the firm’s value proposition for some 50 years now. Our function is setting new audience and engagement records while showing a ‘quality at speed’ agility that matches any mainstream publisher out there.”
