It's a middle office role with a lot of interaction with the front office, so if you're looking to move to FO then it's a good position. Depending on your specific assignments it shouldn't be too stressful and should have a lot of opportunities to learn new things, so yeah I'd say a good move for growth overall.

I think it's interesting for a middle office role, definitely better than being back office lol. I think it's good for growth, I mean the GS name alone makes a big difference to your resume

Interested to know average salaries
of an Assistant Manager in
Purchasing (London based).
I was promoted from Supervisor to
Assistant Manager within the last
month, prior to my previous
manager being replaced. This is my
second promotion in just under a
year at the company. Based on the
salary I feel undervalued and
demotivated (I'm on just over £30k
and have 3 direct reports in a team
of 12), particularly as my efforts to
negotiate my salary were shot down.
Any advice would be welcomed.

Hi all,

My question is based on AMCAT score is there a possibility that Capgemini would revoke my offer ? Is it an elimination round as they mentioned this a part of Capgemini hiring process?
