  • Create secondary research reports by summarizing readily available data sources to deepen clients’ market knowledge (e.g., innovation category deep-dives, competitive brand and product analyses).
  • Manage projects with research vendors, including establishing timelines and communication to ensure high quality research results are delivered to the team. 
  • Lead effective presentations and brainstorms with senior level audiences across the organization.

Qualifications

  • 10-15 years of experience in consumer and market research, preferably with both vendor and client-side experience.

  • Expert at manipulating and working with raw data sets in Excel.
  • Knowledge of point of sale data like IRI and Nielsen a plus.
