L.E.K. Consulting APAC
Overview
Introduction
L.E.K. Consulting is a global management consultancy with clients ranging from large global corporations and major private equity firms to growth-stage entrepreneurial firms. Although the firm’s roots are firmly planted in British soil (it began with the establishment of its London office in 1983), L.E.K.’s reach spans almost every major market around the globe. That—coupled with deep industry expertise across a breadth of clients and capabilities—creates a wealth of “big firm” opportunities at a relatively midsize firm.
