ABOUT UNILEVER
With 3.4 billion people in over 190 countries using our products every day, Unilever is a business that makes a real impact on the world. Work on brands that are loved and improve the lives of our consumers and the communities around us. We are driven by our purpose: to make sustainable living commonplace, and it is our belief that doing business the right way drives superior performance. At the heart of what we do is our people – we believe that when our people work with purpose, we will create a better business and a better world.
WHO ARE WE?
We are the Global Wellbeing team focused on one of Unilever’s largest growth opportunities – the €140bn Wellbeing space defined by Vitamins, Minerals, and Supplements (VMS).
OUR BUSINESS:
Unilever’s Wellbeing Collective Group (WBC) holds the company’s health and wellness brands and the portfolio of brands that includes Liquid IV, Nutrafol, Olly, SmartyPants, Onnit, and Grüns. Each brand is completely unique and focused on giving consumers superior experiences within their respective spaces and target segments. We are committed to continuing to grow this strategic business for Unilever by leveraging the full strength of Unilever’s capabilities and expanding the reach of our portfolio internationally.
We work in an agile, fast-moving environment, collaboratively within the team and with our Unilever colleagues around the world. We work in a project-based, networked way where everyone needs to be able to take a step back and think strategically, as well as roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty, to be entrepreneurial and experiment, as well as bring in the best of Unilever and work the structures of a large company, and to take charge and lead, as well as follow and support others.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
Translate data into decision-ready insights — synthesize consumer, category, competitor, and macro-trend data into clear "so-what" implications that pressure-test the Wellbeing strategy.
Build the analytical backbone for category strategy, portfolio choices, and M&A thesis work — market sizing, share/penetration, white-space, growth drivers, consumer segmentation, early signal detection, and leading indicator tracking
Help build and scale a repeatable growth intelligence capability – mapping priority data sources, defining “metrics that matter”, pressure-testing early signals, and translating emerging insights into actionable brand, category, innovation, and M&A workstreams.
Run structured problem solving on defined modules of strategic initiatives (e.g., category deep-dives, competitor teardowns, target screens), owning workplan, analysis, and first-draft recommendation.
Develop board- and C-suite-ready materials — turning raw analysis into crisp slides, narratives, and one-pagers that equip senior executives for critical engagements.
Be the team's data whiz and CMI partner — fluently using Circana, Stackline, Numerator Panel, Euromonitor, social listening, and primary research (qual + quant) to bring the consumer voice into every question.
Pioneer trend and foresight inputs (GLP-1, science-backed claims, omnichannel discovery, AI-enabled routines, etc.) into a forward-looking view the team can act on, including M&A target screening, brand/category assessments, and competitive benchmarks across the M&A funnel.
Run the PMO for strategic projects — M&A due diligence and AOP — owning master workplan & calendar, weekly cross-functional connects, status reporting, milestone tracking, and senior-stakeholder decks.
KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES
High-quality analytical outputs: Rigorous, well-sourced analyses (market models, share trees, segmentations, competitor profiles, M&A screens) that directly inform Wellbeing's growth choices.
Always-on category & competitive radar: A refreshed view of category, competitor, channel, and consumer-trend shifts — with implications for strategy and M&A on a defined cadence.
Decision-ready materials: Concise, insight-led storylines, charts, and decks used in board pre-reads, strategy refresh, and investor/customer/partner settings.
Continuous learning & curiosity: An "unlimited curiosity and self-starter" mindset — applying new analytical, AI, and PMO methods to Wellbeing's questions.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
Bachelor's degree in Business, Economics, Finance, Engineering, Statistics, Data Science, Marketing, or a related quantitative discipline.
3–6 years of experience in strategy, consulting, general management, or relevant roles within consumer goods or high-growth categories.
Structured problem solver who breaks down ambiguous problems into clear, insight-led recommendations, with strong analytical and financial acumen.
Advanced application skills (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Think-cell, project management) and strong expertise in consumer data tools (Circana, Stackline, Numerator, Euromonitor) and AI tools (Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT).
Proven cross-functional leadership — driving alignment across diverse stakeholders and managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment with strong judgment and ownership.
Executive-grade communicator — expert verbal, PowerPoint, writing, and data-visualization skills; comfortable preparing executive-ready materials and influencing without authority.
Collaborative team player with maturity, discretion, and adaptability for sensitive strategic work, and an externally oriented, curious mindset toward emerging consumer and competitive developments.
