The sector challenge

Identifying leaders who can drive business development, accelerate growth and energise transitions is paramount to business success.

Consumer and retail businesses are constantly driven to balance global branding with local market differentiation, where price, margin, supply chain, innovation and investment need to be carefully planned and managed.

Add to this the challenge of changing demographics, market trends, consumer behaviour, as well as technological advances and it makes the consumer sector one of the most challenging and exciting to be involved with.

But it also means that the “war for talent” within the sector is fierce. Identifying leaders who can drive business development, accelerate growth and energise transitions is paramount to business success.

To be able to successfully adapt to meet these challenges, a Search partner needs to be agile, practical and both proactive and reactive.
