- Identifying further potential revenue opportunities.
- Running Worldpanel data using the proprietary PowerView software and being an expert in understanding key metrics and how they can answer business issues.
- Training the client-side team to access and interpret the basic data, once the online client portal is up and running.

Key Capabilities

To succeed in this role, you need to be an experienced market researcher who has an ability to distill large amounts of data into clear nuggets of insight and who has a motivation to delivering outstanding client service.
- Proven experience in market research or similarly analytical role.
- Strong analytical skills with the ability to create insightful and impactful presentations.
- Relationship and account building experience, with a desire to deliver outstanding client service.
