Kantar, backed by Bain Capital, is the world’s leading data, insights and consulting company. We understand more about how people think, feel, shop, share, vote and view than anyone else. Combining our expertise in human understanding with advanced technologies, Kantar’s 30,000 people help the world’s leading organisations succeed and grow.
Our insights colleagues are experts in human understanding. With expertise covering brand, innovation, creative, media, commerce and customer experience, they help clients define what brands should stand for, how to disrupt and renew their offer, how to connect with audiences and how to win with consumers and customers.
We are an Africa expertise team, based in London, helping international clients launch or grow their brands across African markets. We have worked in the region for 15 years, drawing out regional and market level strategy and connecting global and local stakeholders.
Our team has a holistic view of the entire African continent and this makes us experts in conducting complex multi-country projects, adapting Kantar solutions for African realities, and taking knowledge from one market to another
Our Client Directors immerse themselves in their client’s worlds to really understand their brands, communications and business strategy in order to help them grow. The majority of our work comes from large, global accounts and involves managing brand trackers across multiple countries. We also do regular work across innovation, creative and shopper domains, as well as delivering large-scale advanced analytics projects.
You will get to develop collaborative, strategic partnerships with your clients. As our research capabilities are broad, you will also find yourself managing multiple data sources – combining brand tracking (mostly automated and app based), brand positioning, brand guidelines, analytics, client data, retail tracking data, media data and segmentation etc.
Key outcomes:
Developing collaborative, strategic partnerships with clients and delivering insights throughout all levels of the organisation (from main client contact to the C-suite)
Designing the strategy for your key accounts and other focus growth areas in collaboration with the other key account leaders and the departmental CCO/MD
Leading ongoing brand equity programmes and identifying opportunities to further develop the client’s Kantar research portfolio with increasingly, cutting edge research techniques, such as innovation, social media and brand analytics
Leading your key client account on pitches/proposals and identifying cross-sell opportunities, ensuring penetration across product/service portfolio and leveraging sector expertise/insight
Pioneering new solutions and working with clients to co-create solutions to their business issues
Proactively building a wide network across Kantar, in order to provide holistic answers to our clients’ business questions
Ensuring overall client satisfaction and revenue growth
Inspiring the team and giving direction to your account team/s
Managing commercials, including pipeline, orderbook, profitability of projects, client invoicing and financial admin.
Key capabilities:
Highly strategic and consultative individual with a passion for building client relationships and turning data into actionable business insights
Experience in brand tracking is required. Additional experience in innovation, creative, shopper, advanced analytics and CX also desirable.
Experience working with global clients and managing large-scale multi-country projects.
Experience managing and inspiring teams in a previous role/s and a clear understanding of management fundamentals.
Experience dealing with commercial aspects of project/client management, including job profit management, pipeline compliance and financial admin.
