About the Role

• Work with retail and consumer panel databases to uncover performance drivers.
• Collaborate to strengthen in-house capabilities, piloting new partners and scaling solutions.
• Define robust methodologies and criteria, including forecasting approaches, for consistent value delivery.
• Provide advanced data analysis and clear actionable recommendations for business decision-making.
• Contribute to competitive intelligence, identifying emerging risks and opportunities.
• Act as a centre of expertise in Business Intelligence and Analytics, championing knowledge sharing and best practices.
• Align reporting standards and metrics at central and local levels.
• Foster collaboration and continuous improvement within the UK & Ireland BI community.
• Manage ongoing data cleaning, coding, and automation processes, ensuring accuracy and consistency.
• Monitor business performance across retail and consumer databases for a clear view.
• Contribute to the development of a shared knowledge platform to strengthen insight-sharing.
• Manage relationships with data and analytics partners alongside Data Governance and Advanced Analytics colleagues.
• Contribute to vendor feedback and market screening for new tools and providers.

About You

We are looking for someone with at least two years’ experience in Business Intelligence, gained either within a Market Research Agency or on the client side. You bring strong analytical skills, close attention to detail and the confidence to manage analysis and reporting independently. You are comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with a diverse range of stakeholders, able to prioritise effectively and respond with agility.

When presented with a business question, you know how to identify the right analytical approach, conduct thorough analysis and communicate clear findings with practical recommendations. You have experience using one or more leading statistical or BI platforms, such as Numerator MWP, NielsenIQ or Circana Liquid Data, and you are confident working quickly and accurately. Most importantly, you are able to connect insights from multiple sources to inform business plans and strategies.

At Ferrero, we value different perspectives, backgrounds and experiences. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone feels respected, supported and empowered to contribute. If you are passionate about transforming data into impact and want to be part of a collaborative team shaping the future of our brands, we would love to hear from you.
