Any CPG/Retail consulting firms in Canada with a good WLB? My spouse has ~10YoE in category management at a global CPG company and is looking for options.

Random Q but how much does your spouse make? Thinking about entering category management and curious where one might be at in 10 years

Salaries in CPG / retail aren't high, and career progression is typically very slow. $120K at her level is considered good.

I was a category manager and held other consumer roles previously. I switched to consulting for money and faster progression.

Happy to make a referral for her to my firm - we have a huge retail / consumer practice and tons of category and merchandising work. WLB is not “good” per se but you won’t find a consulting firm paying more than $120k with “good” WLB.

Shoot me a DM if you want to chat!

Appreciate the offer, but she does not seem to be interested in McK. (I certainly would though:)

She's not really looking for more money or faster progression. She just likes solving category / retail problems and building decks :)

She is okay just making decent money ($100k+) without having to work more than 40 hrs a week.
