  • Ensure accuracy and integrity of all data inputs (historical sales, promotions, seasonality).
  • Drive improvements to forecasting processes and data collection systems.
  • About You

  • 18 months-2 years’ experience in a data, insights, or commercial analyst role — ideally within FMCG, retail, or a related sector.
  • Strong analytical mindset and commercial acumen.
  • Experience working with Power BI, Excel, and syndicated data sets (Circana, Quantium, DunnHumby, Nielsen).
  • Experience using or exposure to forecasting tools.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to tell a story through data.
  • High attention to detail and comfortable working across multiple data sources.
