chilled food market?
At The Compleat Food Group, we're looking for a Head of Strategy & Insight to shape the strategic plan for our Deli and Dips

real commercial and brand impact.
Who we are looking for:
* Proven leadership in Strategy, Actionable Insight or Commercial Brand Planning, ideally within FMCG.
* Expert ability to synthesise data from multiple sources into a compelling narrative – from EPOS, Kantar, Nielsen to bespoke
research.
* Strategic mindset with hands-on experience influencing brand positioning, retailer strategies, and innovation priorities.
* Skilled in using tools such as IRI, Dunnhumby, Power BI, or similar visualisation platforms.
* Deep experience in qualitative and quantitative research management.
* A collaborative, confident communicator – comfortable working cross-functionally and navigating matrix structures.
* A proven track record of influencing decision-makers at all levels, including executive and board level.
* Driving Licence with flexibility to travel to our sites across the UK in particular our Redhill location in Surrey weekly.
The Opportunity - "What you will be doing" : Driving Strategic Category Growth in both Brand and Private Label
As the senior leader for Strategy and Insights in the Deli business unit, you will:
* Be the go-to leader for strategic thinking in category evolution, retailer engagement, and innovation alignment.
* Champion consumer, shopper and market insight as the foundation for growth – shaping the category strategy underpinned with
consumer centric thinking
* Own the “voice of the consumer” and turn data into action – distilling complex analytics into sharp strategic commercial
recommendations.
* Lead total category KPI tracking, consumer behaviour analysis and macro trend monitoring to drive short- and long-term
planning.
* Influence at the highest level – partnering with the Commercial Director, Brand, Category Management, and Development teams to
embed insight into every growth decision.
* Lead and manage consumer research projects, identify key behavioural shifts, and influence how we evolve our shopper profiles
and brand experiences.
