Market Insights Manager Bakery & Confection
Jan 2024 — Present · Wayzata, MN, US
As a category Market Insights Manager supporting the Bakery and Sugar & Chocolate Confection categories, I lead strategic insights by analyzing complex data sources—including POS, shopper behavior, and market trends—to guide category growth and commercial decision-making. I deliver actionable recommendations through advanced analytics on shopper attitudes and behaviors, influencing product mix, pricing, packaging, and merchandising strategies. I collaborate cross-functionally with marketing, sales, and customer teams to activate insights that drive performance and customer strategies. Additionally, I provide thought leadership in category intelligence, continuously enhancing tools, methodologies, and insights capabilities to stay ahead of evolving market dynamics.
