Retail Solutions

is a new kind of team within Oliver Wyman: an internal product startup that blends a strong engineering culture and an obsession for creating products that deliver the world’s biggest retail impact.

Our suite of retail tools empowers merchandising teams to address complex analytical challenges and make the most important commercial decisions at the heart of every retailer: optimizing assortments, promotional programs, and pricing strategies.

Proactive curiosity and a willingness to challenge the status quo

Ability to draw on and practically apply years of engineering experience

Be an advocate for the users and develop a deep understanding of their needs

Communicate, communicate, communicate: from getting stakeholder alignment on priorities to negotiating trade-offs, from managing expectations to collaborating with colleagues, this role demands excellent communication skills

Who we are looking for…

You will have a proven track record developing complicated, analytical software programs with strong knowledge of Python and experience interacting with data repositories to create API services, combined with experience developing from Docker containers. Knowing NodeJS is a huge plus for this role along with MongoDB.

The following are essentials for this role:

Python, NodeJS, API Services / Processing

Important: MongoDB, Containers/Docker Familiarity, HTML/CSS/JavaScript

Nice to have: Databricks, VueJS

We’re also keen to have applications from individuals with Retail industry experience, particularly in any of the following: merchandising optimization, category management, promotions, pricing strategies, supplier negotiations, or assortment/range management

Exposure to a consulting environment is a bonus but not required

Why Join Us?

Our team is distributed over several countries, with a center of gravity in the UK and Spain. We believe that by mixing our diverse backgrounds and experiences with the ingredients below, we have a recipe for building great software.

Culture:

We are large enough to organize ourselves around a line of four products, but small enough that we all know each other well. We are all team players first and foremost and that results in a strong and inclusive team culture. We are in this team because we love learning and improving how we do things, we love building stuff.

Impact

: Our team is growing fast to deliver on ambitious plans to bring our product suite to the largest retailers on the planet in collaboration with Oliver Wyman’s Consumer, Technology and Telecoms (CTT) practice. This is an opportunity to do something different than almost anywhere else: work in multi-disciplinary teams to build great products, and at the same time see up close the real-world impact you create.

Ownership:

You will get the autonomy, trust, and support to make decisions, take on responsibility, and drive our experience forward.

Flat structure:

Decision-making is as transparent as we know how to make it. We don’t always get it right, but we get better every day. We do have different levels of experience and responsibility but in the day-to-day we all want to experience a flat structure without unnecessary hierarchy: a strong rationale beats arguments from authority every time.
