Do you want to lead projects that influence the future direction of global business? Are you curious about how to keep a strategy alive across a global organization? Are you excited by working closely with experienced leaders to solve the most challenging problems in our business? Then you might be who we are looking for!

You will be part of our Strategy & Execution team and work on high-impact, cross-functional projects that help drive STG's strategy forward. You will work directly with the Head of Strategy and the rest of the team, partnering closely with business leaders and subject matter experts across the organization. You can expect to spend your time both supporting the Executive Board decision-making, and working with the business to drive execution. Your contributions will drive strategic initiatives, bring new clarity to complex problems, align stakeholders through challenging trade-offs and ultimately help STG deliver our strategic ambitions. Our team are the stewards of the Focus2030 strategy, and you will play a core part in keeping the strategy alive in the business while remaining responsive to market changes and execution learnings.

This would be an ideal role for an associate-manager level consultant looking to transition into a corporate role so they can take longer term ownership of their projects and see them come to life.

• Preparing materials for the Board of Directors strategy days

• Supporting a business team to prioritise their focus areas for the strategy period
• Reviewing our progress to delivering our strategy for the Exec Board
• Creating a new Exec Board KPI dashboard to continuously monitor the success of strategy execution
• Developing a comms plan for Focus2030

Role

Your role will vary from developing content yourself to collaborating closely with others, depending on the project or business needs. Your role will often include:

• Project managing complex, cross-functional projects
• Creating insightful analysis (gathering, testing, combining, summarising, visualising)
• Developing frameworks to bring simplicity and clarity to complex problems and decisions
• Working closely with experts and stakeholders to identify and refine recommendations
• Running workshops with senior leaders
• Building slide decks to tell a compelling message
• Managing and supporting the development of more junior team member(s)

What You'll Bring

• You will bring a minimum of 3-4 years of strategy and/or management consulting experience
  • Experience in a corporate environment (permanent or secondments) is a plus
• Problem and decision structuring – experience building frameworks to simplify challenges and decisions to enable the business to move forward
• Experience in Consumer-Packaged Goods and/or Retail sectors
• Demonstrated project management experience and attention to detail
• Strong stakeholder management and team working experience
• Demonstrated strong analytical skills including experience delivering complex analyses in Excel
  • Understanding P&L / key accounting principles / Cashflow modelling is a plus
  • Understanding of data structuring principles and leveraging multiple data sources a plus
• Good slide development skills (storyboarding, content development, polishing) for C-level messaging
• A learning and growth mindset – developing yourself and supporting the development of the team around you
• Experience and curiosity in using GenAi tools to accelerate and improve your work, including effective prompting, iterative refinement and critical evaluation of AI outputs
• Professionally fluent in English

What You'll Learn

• There will be a strong investment in your development where you need it, with a variety of experiences and supportive coaching
• This could include
  • Deepening your experience in the CPG / Retail sector
  • Refining your presentation skills, to communicate complex topics in a clear and effective way
  • Leading projects that are critical to our strategy success
  • Strengthening your stakeholder management skills in a complex, cross-functional, international organization
• This role will give exposure to senior leaders across business globally and equip you to be a transformation leader with extensive experience working alongside C-suite
• Our Strategy department, which brings together teams focused on strategy execution, consumer insights, business intelligence, data, and sustainability, will provide you with an opportunity to broaden your expertise across these disciplines too
