The 5 biggest shops in the region in no particular order are Mck, BCG, S&, OW, Kearney. However right now is an absolute blood bath for the region due to the combined impact of Covid and low oil prices. Consulting budgets are getting destroyed and even with past completed projects there is no guarantee you get paid. Restructuring, a very nascent field in the region, is taking off.
I work in the Middle East. Lots of consulting. Heavily focused on public sector. Very competitive. Most projects are in Saudi. Top firms are bcg, strategy& (+pwc), mckinsey .
Also hours are horrible. Expect 13-15 hour work days to be the norm

I know an ex-ZSer currently working at the life sciences branch of a Dubai consultancy firm
Dubai is heavy on public sector consulting if that’s of any interest to you
Looking related to business operations, regardless of industry. Want to explore or grow in any sector where I can drive synergies for business growth. Thought of airlines and civil but from my research seems like these sectors are monopolized in the Middle East really no “consulting” happening locally. MBB driving most of it from London (not 100% sure about this).
