Working as a consultant at Omniarch
We asked Alexander Brache, a senior e-commerce consultant at Omniarch what's it like being a consultant that offers you the chance to work with several different brands vs. working with the tasks in/challenges around just one company?
In his words:
😊 The best parts of working as a consultant:
- Freedom to work where I want
- Right to prioritize from experience
- More variety in diverse projects
- Networking via meeting new people
- Broadening my technical capabilities
🙃 The pitfalls I endured while working working with a sole company:
- Locked in to a defined process
- Less networking capabilities
- Less room to experiment and try new things
- Less intent to educate
🔨 Being a consultant is like showing up to a work site. Some gigs come with an instruction sheet but no supplies and others come with some wood, a hammer and a box of nails.
It is up to me in this situation to decide how I can use the tools I have to deliver on the goals my customers are interested in achieving.
