• Track Portfolio & Brand Architecture KPIs:
  Define and monitor key KPIs across top markets, highlight successes, identify gaps, and support global and local teams in making stronger portfolio decisions over time.


• Provide Competitive Intelligence:
  Track portfolio moves, strategic launches, and competitive shifts using external sources such as Mintel and internal analysis. Share actionable updates with Group I&A stakeholders.

What we’re looking for

You combine analytical rigor with curiosity and a knack for storytelling — turning complex data into clarity that drives business impact.

• Proficiency in KPI tracking and performance analysis

Personal qualities:

• Strategic and commercially curious mindset


• Collaborative team player with strong communication skills
