Established in Australia in 2002, Quantium is a global team of more than 1,200 people across 14 locations with a unique blend of capabilities across product and consulting services to help businesses unlock value from data and analytics. Quantium partners with the world’s largest corporations to forge a better, more intelligent world.

Our wiqConsumer team

In Australia and New Zealand, our team operate within the Woolworths ecosystem and is known as ‘wiqConsumer’. The name ‘wiq’ fosters collaboration within Woolworths (e.g. unlocking better ways of working with the WOW Commercial team). The wiqConsumer team uses their expertise alongside our products Q.Checkout and Q.Scan to facilitate the direct monetisation of retailer data with suppliers, helping drive better decision making for FMCG companies across ANZ. We’re pioneering AI solutions with Woolworths and Australia’s most trusted retail partners, leading innovation in FMCG analytics to shape the future of retail intelligence. As a Consultant in the team, you’ll transform retail through data-driven insights on promotions, category, range, marketing and strategic trends.

How will you make an impact?

• Manage your own portfolio of clients; build and maintain positive working relationships with senior client stakeholders.

• Juggle multiple complex project requirements, including both completing the analytical work yourself and co-ordinating cross-functionally to bring ‘the best of Quantium’ to our clients.

• Actively building industry relationships, understanding client needs in detail and being willing to go the extra mile to create value for our client businesses.

• Contribute to a high-performing, dynamic and engaged culture with your creative ideas, attitude and desire to make an impact.

The superpowers you’ll be bringing to the team:

• Developing strategic expertise: You have some experience in data-driven insight generation and are honing your skills in business problem-solving strategies.

• FMCG/Retail experience: You have experience working in a FMCG business, with growing ability to contribute analytical solutions in a commercial context.

• Data proficient: You’re adept at working with large data sets (e.g. customer & shopper data) and can extract meaningful insights to address commercial challenges.

• Effective communicator: You possess a budding business development mindset and solid presentation skills, capable of adapting to change and managing multiple projects.

• Collaborative innovator with AI curiosity: You’re passionate about partnership-driven problem-solving, eager to learn about emerging AI technologies through collaboration, and excited by the opportunity to shape industry standards through innovative partnerships.

Remember – you might not tick all the boxes, but don't let that from stopping you applying. We’re more interested in how you work, your ability to solve problems and think big.

What could your Quantium Experience look like?

Working at Quantium will allow you to challenge your imagination. You will get to solve complex problems using rigor, precision and by asking great questions – but it also means you can think big, outside the box and push your problem-solving skills to the max.

By joining the Quantium team, you’ll get to:

• Forge your path: So many of our team have moved around different teams or offices. You’ll be in the driver’s seat, and we empower you to make your career your own.
• Find your kind: Embrace diversity and connect with your tribe (think foodies, dog lovers, readers, or runners).
• Make an impact: Leave your mark. Your contributions resonate, regardless of your role or rank.

But wait, there’s more!

We’ve got some pretty sweet perks:

• Flexible work arrangements : Achieve work life balance at your own pace with hybrid and flexible work arrangements.
