About Wightman

No matter your career trajectory – whether you’re just starting out, currently in a mid-level position, or are looking to accelerate your career opportunities – you want to work for a firm that does great work, gives back to their community, supports your career path, and does it all alongside people with whom you can connect. After all, you spend a third of your day at work; why do it in a place where you do not feel valued, are longing for more responsibility, or feel disconnected from your clients? If you are seeking a position at a legacy consulting firm that is wholly owned by its employees, looking to do impactful work that matters, and find a work culture that supports your family life, bring your skills to Wightman.
