Summary
Circana provides technology, AI, and data solutions for consumer packaged goods companies, manufacturers, and retailers. The Client Analytics Analyst will support a leading consumer health client by running pricing, promotion, and assortment models, interpreting results, developing client deliverables, managing data inputs and schedules, and supporting client users.
Responsibilities
- Become the expert user of Circana's price and promotion and assortment platforms for the client. Execute scenarios and simulations requested by the consultants and client users, QC the results, and turn them around quickly
- Go beyond running the scenario. Identify the notable results, the anomalies that need a second look, and the business implications in the model output, and bring them to the consultants with a first take on what they mean for the client. You are the first line of interpretation on the team
- Translate model output into clear, accurate slides and summaries for line reviews, pricing reviews and category readouts. Maintain a consistent standard across all client-facing materials
- Track quarterly coefficient refreshes, assortment remodels, monthly new item updates and category review timing. Flag risks early and keep the team's internal timeline and open items list current
- Maintain the product groupings, attribute files and geography lists the models depend on. Coordinate with Circana's delivery and modeling teams to resolve data questions and confirm what has been built matches the spec
- Handle routine client questions, support training sessions and office hours, and escalate anything that needs a consultant's judgment
- Develop real working knowledge of elasticity modeling, promotional effectiveness measurement, demand transferability and optimization. Learn how the models are built, what drives the results, and where they break, so you can explain outputs to a client, catch errors before they ship, and grow into a consultant role
