Job description

Senior Financial Analyst, Economic Insights & Analytics

As a Senior Analyst on Kraft Heinz's Economic Insights & Analytics team, you will sit at the intersection of macroeconomics, consumer data, and company strategy — informing decisions that reach the Global and NA CFOs, Business Unit leaders, and the C-Suite. This team shapes how one of the world's largest food & beverage companies understands its business, and your fingerprints will be on that work from day one.

What’s on the menu? Own the "single source of truth" — lead weekly US consumption market share and monthly business reporting routines, delivering sharp insights across Business Units to senior leadership. Become the go-to expert on consumption and panel data, Power BI dashboards, and Circana — guiding cross-functional teams and executive stakeholders to faster, better decisions. Step into high-visibility, high-impact work with Kraft Heinz’s most senior leaders — tackling timely ad-hoc strategic questions, uncovering insights on industry and competitive dynamics, and helping inform the decisions that shape where the business goes next. Drive the Economic Outlook, a flagship publication reaching 1,000+ internal stakeholders, packed with macroeconomic trends, industry intelligence, and custom insights. Support macroeconomic forecasting across ~30 categories in Kraft Heinz's $170B industry — building assumptions, running models, and presenting findings to US Leadership ahead of key planning cycles. Serve as the liaison between internal stakeholders and external partners to refine macroeconomic models and ensure forecast assumptions align with business expectations. Monitor and synthesize Food & Beverage, macroeconomic, consumer, and geopolitical trends — translating them into actionable narratives for the organization’s most influential decision‑makers. Champion AI‑powered efficiency — leverage tools like Claude and Copilot to automate reporting, accelerate insight development, and continuously raise the bar.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience in Finance, Business Analytics, Data Analytics, Economics, Insights, or CPG — bachelor's degree required (quantitative field a plus)
• A natural data storyteller — able to mine complex datasets, identify the signal in the noise, and communicate findings with clarity and confidence to senior audiences
• Advanced Excel and PowerPoint skills; a compelling presenter who makes data come alive
• Comfortable with big data sets, ambiguity, and energized by fast-paced, high-stakes environments
• Genuinely curious about macroeconomic trends, geopolitical shifts, F & B industry trends, and their effects on consumer behavior and business performance
• Solutions‑oriented with exceptional attention to detail, strong time management, and a drive to make an outsized impact
• Background in CPG, Consulting, Finance, Economics, Banking, or Market Research
• Experience with Circana/IRI, Federal Reserve, or BLS data; hands‑on statistical modeling or macroeconomic forecasting
• Familiarity with AI tools (Claude, Copilot) to enhance and automate analytical workflows
