The opportunity

How consumers discover, evaluate and buy products is changing faster than most organisations can respond. AI-powered search, agentic commerce, generative product discovery and the collapse of the traditional funnel are reshaping commercial models across every sector. Most enterprise clients know something has shifted few have a clear plan for what to do about it.

WPP Enterprise Solutions is building a commerce consulting practice to help clients navigate these shifts. We work with some of the world's most recognised brands translating complex commercial challenges into actionable strategies, transformation roadmaps and delivery programmes. What makes this role different from a boutique or a SaaS provider is what sits around you: your consulting recommendations connect directly to creative, content, CX and commerce execution teams who bring them to life. Strategy doesn't end at a slide deck here.

We're looking for a Consultant who can work end-to-end from running assessments and diagnostics through to building the roadmaps, change plans and implementation frameworks that follow. You'll be part of an established team working across some of the UK's most recognised brands, with the opportunity to shape how we take new propositions to market.
