Abby Chang Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 Are all teams in a consulting firm project-based? Is there any difference between internal consultant and external consultants? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Spencer Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 My understanding is that consultants in a consulting firm work on project teams. However, there are a range of internal support roles at consulting firms which I understand are not project based, for example HR, legal, finance, IT, and admin. Consultants who work for a consulting firm are external consultants. They come to the client to work on a specific project, and then leave after the project comes to an end. Consultants might also work as an employee within a company, in which case they are internal consultants. Internal consultants might work on projects, but may also be involved a range of ongoing responsibilities like strategic planning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
