Company: Resources Group

MrWeb Ref: 163209

Job Spec: This specialist consultancy powers Australia's FMCGs and Retailers. Their insights sit at the heart of major commercial decisions - shaping price-pack architecture, promotional investment strategy, premium tier development, SKU rationalisation, space and layout optimisation, and long-term category growth planning across billion-dollar portfolios.


The Opportunity

This is a hands-on position combining survey data with strategic category thinking and senior stakeholder engagement. The role also affords maximum flexibility with hybrid working - 1 day in office mandated.

You will:

• Manage key FMCG client accounts
• Interrogate shopper survey data
• Identify actionable insights to inform category planning and growth strategy
• Deliver senior-level presentations and reports
• Lead engaging workshops designed to translate insights into action.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Proprietary data that gives you a genuine competitive edge
• Exposure to complex, commercially meaningful briefs
• Direct engagement with senior retail and manufacturer stakeholders
• Structured training and strong mentorship
• Flexible working arrangements
• A respected brand within the shopper and category insights space.

Ideal Background

You may currently be working within:

• An FMCG client-side insights or category team
• A market research agency
• Shopper marketing or retail analytics.

You will have:

• Confidence working with survey data or point of sale data
• A strong commercial mindset
• The ability to simplify complexity and influence stakeholders.

If you are looking to build your reputation within FMCG, Grocery, Liquor, Category and Shopper insights while delivering tangible commercial impact, this is an excellent next step.
