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.</p> <p>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.</p> <p>We're looking for a Senior Consultant who can own projects and client relationships. Someone who takes an ambiguous brief, structures it independently, drives the strategic direction and ensures the quality of everything the team delivers. You'll lead client conversations, design and facilitate workshops, and be the person mid-to-senior client stakeholders trust to connect diagnostic findings to commercial action. You'll also play a key role in growing the practice, spotting extension opportunities within accounts, contributing to pitches and coaching more junior members of the team.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Perm&nbsp;</strong></li> <li><strong>London/Hybrid&nbsp;</strong></li> <li><strong>Travel to client site where required</strong></li> </ul> <h3>What you’ll be doing:</h3> <p><strong>Project Leadership &amp; Delivery</strong></p> <ul> <li>Own medium-scale projects end-to-end: scope, quality, delivery timeline, and client relationship. Accountable for the strategic direction and the standard of output.</li> <li>Lead the development of strategic recommendations across commerce transformation, AI discoverability (GEO/AEO), agentic commerce readiness, content strategy and channel optimisation - shaping the narrative, not just building the analysis.<
