Success will come from bringing operator credibility into conversations with merchants, guiding cross‑functional teams with fact‑based insights, and ensuring technical teams scope solutions aligned to real business workflows.

• Partner with merchants and CPG teams to evaluate allowances, costs, promotions, and display/space plans, ensuring strategies are grounded in real trade practices.
• Use Circana, Nielsen, Symphony, and retailer monetization platforms to curate market trends, develop hypotheses, and test strategies for price, promo, and display planning.
• Act as a functional sense‑check for pricing intelligence solutions — ensuring outputs align with what makes sense in the aisle, in negotiations, and in retail execution.
• Collaborate with engineering and analytics teams to translate merchandising requirements into scoped technical solutions, providing ongoing guidance and validation.
• Drive hypothesis development and validation with merchants, using transaction data, competitive benchmarks, and market share analysis.
• Lead cross‑functional working sessions to align trade partners, merchants, and analysts around recommendations and scenarios.
• Monitor performance against goals such as trade ROI, sales lift, basket mix, and profitability, sharing insights back to stakeholders.

Experience Required

• 7–10 years in merchandising, trade promotions, category management, or CPG commercial strategy, with direct involvement in allowance, cost, and promotional planning.
• Hands‑on experience with retailer and CPG data platforms (Circana, Nielsen, Symphony, or equivalent).
• Strong functional understanding of retail pricing, promotion mechanics, space & display execution, and vendor negotiations.
• Demonstrated ability to work with both merchant operators and technical teams to ensure solutions reflect practical workflows.
• Track record of turning data analysis into actionable insights that shaped trade or merchandising decisions.
• Excellent communication skills with ability to credibly engage at all levels — from merchants and department specialists to technical teams and executives.
