We delivered a quantitatively minded growth specialist who’d led strategic initiatives both at McKinsey and at a major European financial services company. He began by reviewing the company’s UK financial performance over the past 5 years in each specific category and determining key drivers. He then contextualized the data in terms of overall market size and competitors. Finally, he began to model potential solutions for improving business performance, outlining strategic choices, and developing corresponding business cases and implementation plans.
