Nestlé Business Solutions (NBS) is a global powerhouse of expertise, innovation and operational excellence. Our teams support markets and businesses around the world across Finance, Supply Chain, HR, Digital, eBusiness, CRM, Consumer Engagement and Data & Analytics.
In Lisbon, our multicultural teams partner with global, regional and local stakeholders to accelerate digital transformation, build capabilities and deliver business impact at scale. We combine data, technology and talent to help shape the future of Nestlé.
We are looking for curious, collaborative and solution-oriented professionals who thrive in international environments and are passionate about using data to solve real business challenges.

Working closely with Consumer & Market Insights (CMI), Category and eBusiness teams, you will help transform consumer, shopper, market, category and performance data into practical insights and recommendations. You will also coordinate the people, data and technology needed to deliver effective analytics initiatives across markets.
During the first six months, the role will place particular emphasis on ad-hoc analytical support and project management for data initiatives.

- Translate business needs into clear project requirements and deliverables.
- Coordinate stakeholders, milestones, dependencies, decisions and risks.

- Contribute to data insourcing initiatives designed to improve control, analytical capability and efficiency.
- Validate datasets, spot anomalies and investigate root causes.
- Coordinate issue resolution with markets, internal teams and external data providers.
- Support data preparation, cleansing, mapping, classification and the application of global taxonomies.
- Manage Row-Level Security access and document data sources, assumptions and business rules.
- Maintain and improve existing Power BI dashboards, data models and reporting cycles.
- Develop new reports and analytical views according to agreed business priorities.
- Use Power Query, DAX and data modelling techniques to create accurate, intuitive reporting.
- Run and adapt SQL queries in Snowflake when required.
- Support report publishing, workspace management, refreshes and access control.
- Help stakeholders use dashboards and insights in decision-making.
- Facilitate working sessions, demonstrations and knowledge sharing.
- Document analytical use cases, outcomes, best practices and lessons learned.
- Support the scale-up of successful approaches across markets.
- Relevant experience in data analytics, business intelligence, consumer insights, digital marketing, eBusiness or a related discipline.
- Experience working with Consumer & Market Insights (CMI), Market Research, Category Management or related functions is highly valued.
- Understanding of consumer, shopper and market measurement approaches, with the ability to translate research and data into recommendations.
- Proven ability to analyse complex datasets and translate findings into clear business conclusions.
- Strong project management skills, with experience coordinating several stakeholders, priorities and dependencies.

- Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, including the ability to simplify analytical concepts for non-technical audiences.
