Berlin: Capital of Specialised Consulting
Berlin's consulting scene is different from Frankfurt or Munich: specialised niches rather than Big Four dominance. ESG consulting, China market analytics, political advisory, and startup advisory - Simmonds helps your teams communicate confidently in this international environment.
Interview: English for Consulting & Advisory in Berlin
The AI avatar asks James Simmonds the key questions about consulting English in Berlin.
I work with a broad spectrum: from Deloitte to adelphi consult in sustainability through to Sinolytics for China market analytics. Executive recruiting firms like Headmatch and specialist tax advisors are also among my clients. Berlin's consulting scene is extremely specialised - and that's precisely what makes the training so exciting.
Every consultancy has its own specialist language. For ESG advisors I train Carbon Footprint Reporting and Materiality Assessments. For M&A teams it's about Due Diligence and Term Sheets. I analyse the specific client projects beforehand and build the training around real scenarios.
Berlin is the capital - political advisory, international organisations, EU projects. On top of that come specialised niches like China consulting or sustainability advisory with a global client base. Without confident English, consultants here lose contracts to international competitors.
Absolutely. The AI avatar simulates realistic consulting scenarios: strategy pitches to the board, moderating stakeholder workshops, or presenting due diligence findings. Available around the clock - ideal for preparing for important client meetings.
Yes, that's one of my specialisms in Berlin. Sustainability reporting, greenwashing vs. genuine ESG communication, SDG frameworks - I work closely with consultancies like adelphi consult and know the specialist terminology from practice.
