Role Overview:
We are seeking an Insights & Brand Planning Specialist. This role will be focused on delivering client ready insight reports in our two main areas of research and tracking, Distinctive Brand Assets, and Category Entry Points. The role requires the ability to deliver insight-led reports from briefing through to final delivery, grounded in actionable recommendations. With all our projects we strive to deliver output that provides the perfect jumping off point for our clients so being able to think like them / have experience of their demands would be of great value - hence the note re brand planning skills.

* Create polished reports by transforming raw data into meaningful, persuasive narratives
* Act as a key, trusted client contact—liaising with clients to ensure insights are relevant and impactful
* Assist clients in developing planning frameworks and documents based on research outputs
* Support clients in adopting DBA/CEP-related strategies and activations
* Create thought leadership pieces through content & bespoke research supporting the reach and relevance of Distinctive BAT & SaliencePlus
* Develop into a thought leader in the space of Distinctive Brand Assets & Category Entry Points, furthering the impact of both topics within the wider industry
Requirements:
* Min 7+ year’s experience in marketing effectiveness, brand planning and/or market research
* Strong ability to translate data into clear, concise recommendations.
* Excellent project management skills
* Strong communication and presentation skills; ability to lead workshops and confidently present to senior stakeholders
