Innovation Insights Manager - Drinks | Clientside

An opportunity to be part of one of the drinks industry's leading innovation teams, creating award
winning category defining brands that are re-shaping the future of drinks. This is a key role within
the global marketing agenda, a chance to be at the vanguard of change in the company, and a coveted
role within the insights team.

Your remit will be to influence and lead the global innovation strategy and activities through
powerful, actionable consumer insight and creative brilliance in proposition development; to act as
an ambassador for the Strategy and Insight and Innovation functions, engaging the business on
initiatives that support the delivery of the innovation agenda.

We seek a creative insights planner, a consumer research specialist who is experienced in creating
ideas from powerful human insights, has demonstrable proposition development experience and is
seasoned in creating and implementing an insight and learning plan that provides inspiration,
evidence and fuel for the development of compelling propositions that can be taken through to
execution. Successful candidates will bring a variety of experience: blue chip and entrepreneurial
environments, innovation and creative agencies, working across consumer led categories. Through a
natural curiosity of people and a desire to seek out learnings from a range of cultural, consumer and
category sources, you will find and generate powerful insights that can create a pipeline of ideas
from which to innovate from.

You will manage primary research studies and agencies that will underpin the insight created, with a
desire to lead on new methodologies and approaches to mine for insights. In your delivery of results
you will possess high levels of impact and influence in the organisation through flexible personal
soft skills; utilising marketing models and tools that are easily understood and bought into.

The team is responsible for challenging current thinking and inspiring for a better solution and must
ensure the consumer is placed at the centre of all conversations in a way that demands inclusion
through positive, insightful, inspiring and action-orientated representation.
