What is a strategy consultant and what do they do?

Strategy consultants are responsible for developing high priority strategic initiatives, working directly with the business’s leadership, executives, and stakeholders - both internal and external. They lead cross-functional teams in the development of operational strategies that will influence business growth and profitability as well as helping to ensure that the day-to-day activities of the company support these initiatives. Strategy consultants can work in major strategy advisory firms in practice, or can be found working in industry in larger, multi-national organisations.
