Senior Analyst Line & Price Optimization (LPO)

We’re in tune with what the world is watching, buying, and everything in between. If you can think of it, we’re measuring it. We sift through the small stuff and piece together big pictures to provide a comprehensive understanding of what’s happening now and what’s coming next for our clients. Today’s data is tomorrow’s marketplace revelation.

• Build and nurture basic client relationships while supporting meetings and calls.

• Propose smart solutions to project-specific challenges and help prevent future issues.

Reporting & Storytelling

• Independently prepare reports with impactful, consultative storytelling.

Thought Leadership & Integration

• Combine insights from multiple NIQ data sources for integrated recommendations.

Mentorship & Leadership
