Strategy Consultant resume example

• Owned the market-entry workstream for a B2B software client at PwC Strategy&, combining market research, competitive analysis, and customer insight from 18 documented interviews; compared three expansion options and recommended a partner-led pilot with explicit acquisition-cost and delivery-capacity assumptions.
• Developed go-to-market strategies and a strategic planning model for the software client, using data analytics on renewal cohorts and channel economics; gave the steering committee an investment recommendation with downside sensitivity, decision gates, and named owners instead of a single unsupported revenue forecast.
• Analyzed market trends and business performance by separating new-logo bookings, expansion, and churn in CRM cohorts; reconciled the model to finance-reported revenue and showed that slower growth came from retention in one segment, redirecting the proposal from extra sales headcount to onboarding and partner support.
• Used stakeholder analysis to manage stakeholder expectations across the CFO, product, sales, and delivery teams; recorded conflicting incentives, decision rights, and unresolved assumptions, and the client sponsor approved a bounded pilot.
• Translated the recommendation into business process improvement and a business transformation roadmap with finance-reviewed measures, delivery owners, and fortnightly checkpoints; the steering committee adopted the roadmap and kept implementation progress separate from forecast benefits.
• Applied professional and technical standards to every client deliverable: checked source dates, recalculated model outputs, anonymized interview notes, and maintained a review log; resolved a unit mismatch before the steering-committee presentation.
• Triangulated a market estimate from company filings, customer interviews and competitor disclosures; stress-tested adoption and pricing assumptions before drafting the recommendation.
• Owned a market-research workstream using customer insight and competitive analysis, resolved inconsistent market definitions and completed the business-strategy recommendation.
• Published a business-performance model using data analytics and sensitivity tests, reduced review recalculation from 3 hours to 50 minutes and separated assumptions from sourced facts.

• Mapped the quote-to-contract process at Accenture Strategy, reconciling CRM timestamps with approval logs and interviewing sales operations and legal owners; isolated duplicate approval loops and helped reduce median handoff time from 6.2 to 4.8 days in a six-week pilot covering 42 contracts.
• Built a customer-profitability bridge from bookings to recognized revenue for a software-services client, separating implementation effort from recurring subscription margin; finance accepted the bridge and the account team changed its renewal review to flag loss-making service commitments.
• Checked a reporting workbook for stale links, inconsistent units and unsupported manual adjustments; reconciled the corrected output to the approved source before submitting it for review.
• Investigated a variance flagged during review by tracing the affected entry back to its supporting record. Separated timing differences from incorrect classifications and attached the proposed correction for the reviewer’s approval.

• Built a technology-sector business strategy case using public filings, disclosed segment revenue, and published pricing rather than confidential client data; separated observed facts from estimates and showed which customer-retention assumptions would reverse the recommendation.
• Tested the recommendation against lower retention and slower implementation scenarios; a review memo identified the two assumptions the client would need to validate before funding expansion, so the case did not treat forecast value as realized revenue.
• Created a synthetic ledger and supporting schedules with timing differences, reversals and an unmatched item; reconciled opening and closing balances and retained the source for each proposed adjustment.
• Tested the workbook after changing a period and reversing an input, identified formulas that failed to update, and added a control total and reviewer notes explaining the remaining assumptions.
• Owned the synthetic-ledger reconciliation using control totals, resolved an out-of-period posting and completed an evidence index linking every adjustment to its source record.
