**What Matters to Us**:
Thirty years ago, in Toronto, Canada, Founder Ron Pirie championed the belief that businesses work better together when they commit to actively listening and responding to each other’s feedback.

From humble beginnings and a staunch and universal belief that stronger collaboration leads to better business results in any market and any industry, our relationship benchmarking capabilities have become the gold standard for measuring business-to-business engagement in over 40 countries.

**Who We’re Seeking to Join Our Team**:
**What Success Looks Like in this Role**:
The Program Analyst and Co-ordinator will support the administration and delivery of key Advantage programs in the South African business. You will help to manage our annual research programs through the key stages of program specifications, fieldwork, report production and insight delivery.

- Collaborates with the Managing Director and Program and Operations Manager to ensure that reports and inputs are organised to support Reporting season.

**Where You’ll be Located**:

- Meetings with and presentations to senior retailer and supplier clients in the South African region may be required
- Use of VC, telephone, or teleconference frequently (digital communication acumen is needed)

**What We’re Looking For**:

- Tertiary Qualification, minimum of relevant undergraduate University degree
- 1+ years of relevant operations, project management, research, or data analysis experience.
- Strong organisational, program management skills needed, with the ability to engage with multiple stakeholders from Leadership, Sales, Finance & Procurement, at clients. And with multilevel stakeholders and business partners supporting the program design and implementation internally.
- Strong proficiency with Microsoft Office suite, particularly MS Excel and PowerPoint
- Experience with Tableau or other BI tools is considered an asset
- Proven ability to communicate in English (verbal and written)
- Interest in the FMCG and Grocery industry
- Desire to grow with the business and develop your role

**The Capabilities and Skills that Matter**:

- Numeracy and a keen eye for detail and a level of comfort with data analysis
- Outstanding initiative with a “can-do” attitude
