Assignment

We are supporting a major retail / consumer player in Poland on a strategic business planning mission.

Management has defined ambitious topline objectives, but now needs to quantify, stress-test and model the operational levers required to deliver the plan.

This is a highly analytical assignment focused on:

• modelling growth scenarios levers

• sizing business levers

• validating assumptions

• translating strategy into numbers

• building a robust business plan grounded in operational reality

The project will examine growth drivers such as:

• store expansion pace / rollout economics

• like-for-like sales improvement

• productivity uplift in existing stores

• assortment / merchandising optimisation

• pricing and promotional elasticity

• e-commerce contribution

• margin implications / operating leverage

• capital deployment / ROI by initiative

Responsibilities

• Structure the business planning workstream

• Define modelling hypotheses

• Challenge management assumptions

• Quantify upside / downside scenarios

• Build steering logic around growth levers

• Translate findings into executive recommendations

• Coordinate analyst support

This is not pure slide strategy consulting.
This is business-model architecture and lever quantification.
