Management analyst is the term used for people who work for government agencies. In business, the term for these workers is management consultant. Work varies from project to project. Sometimes a team of analysts works on a project. At other times, just one analyst is needed.
Analysts generally specialize in one area of management, such as human resources.
In general, management analysts begin by collecting, reviewing, and analyzing information. They read business reports, examine financial statements, and talk to employees. Analysts also observe the business to see how work is done. Next, management analysts develop solutions to the problem. While finding a solution, analysts must keep in mind how similar businesses are run.
