Morphology
The compound 'management consultant' is transparently built from 'management' (organizing and supervising) + 'consultant' (a professional advisor), so its meaning—an advisor on management—is directly derivable from the constituents. This noun‑noun compositional pattern is common across languages and standard in English workplace vocabulary, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand the phrase.
Etymology
Management consultant is literally a person who gives advice about management. A consultant comes into a company, watches how things are done and suggests changes, so the term means a professional who helps organizations improve how they work.
