WHAT WE DO
Playfair Consultancy Group is a student-run consulting firm providing pro-bono services to local, national, and international organisations. Our teams provide fresh perspectives and practical solutions to our clients' most pressing challenges. Operating out of St Andrews, we work across many different industries and regions, from local charities to nationwide tech companies. Our firm handles market entry strategy, competitive analyses, organisational restructuring, and more. If you have an idea you would like explored or a problem that needs to be solved, we can commit a team of driven students to conduct the research you might not have time for.
Our History
Playfair Consultancy Group was founded in 2013 by students Mirko, Dougal, and Katie who recognised there was a surplus of both smart, motivated students and small businesses that needed assistance to grow or initiate change. Playfair formed with the mission of helping students gain meaningful work experience whilst also helping local communities thrive. Playfair's pro-bono services aid businesses that may not be able to afford or access consulting. This has aided hundreds of students and more than 45 clients since the company’s inception and will continue to do so as Playfair’s already strong reputation among students grows and recruitment cycles become increasingly competitive.
