What is a Retail Consultant?
Retail consultants work alongside company management within the retail sector. The consultants assist the management teams on a range of topics, including; retail strategy, growing sales & profit, expanding into new markets, improving operational efficiency, managing costs, financial controls, exploring new technologies, developing digital strategies and offering advice & insight into the retail industry.
Retail Consultant: Job Description & Role Definition
A retail consultant falls within the overall management consultant role but has specific emphasis on retail, which in today’s retail environment, includes digital marketing, eCommerce & marketplace sales channels and a broad range of digital technology. Retail consultants work with retailers, manufacturers and brands to develop a range of strategies, tactics and techniques to grow their business.
The initial approach with clients is to listen, taking onboard their objectives, challenges and ambitions. Once fully understood, the expertise of the retail consultant can be brought to the fore and plans discussed to ascertain the best route to success, eyes & ears before voice.
It’s important for the consultant to get to know their clients’ business, from the sales floor & factory floor to the admin office and support teams. Listening to customers as well as employees will help to build a true picture of the current business.
