You're a go-getter who lives in the data but knows how to make it resonate - with clients, with buyers, and internal teams. You have a talent for building strong relationships, and a collaborative spirit that makes everyone around you better. You'll own the insights function for our client portfolio of brands and suppliers selling to our client: pulling and synthesizing data across syndicated sources, point-of-sale data, and digital shelf performance to build the kind of stories that grow the category, win shelf space, identify trends, and drive sustained growth. You know what it takes to collaborate effectively between buyers, analysts, and brands. You bring a point of view, not just a report.
