We are looking for a dynamic, passionate individual to join our Analytics & Insights team in Toronto beginning March 2024.
In A&I, we combine in-depth human insights and advanced analytics to directly influence business strategy, product design, pricing, media investments, retail, go to market strategy… and much more!

We use state of the art analytics tools to dig deep in the data, identifying key business drivers and assessing the impact of investments like advertising and in store promotions. At the same time, we are also driven to meet individual consumers wherever they are to uncover nuanced human truths that they themselves may not be aware of.
