Why be an Insight Lead at THG?

As Insight Lead, you will lead THG’s Group Insight capability - a centralised function that serves both Beauty and Nutrition. You will own the insight agenda for THG: consumer and market research, brand tracking, NPS and competitive intelligence.

What you'll do:

  • Own and evolve THG’s group insight agenda — defining what we need to understand about our consumers and markets
  • Build and maintain a programme of primary and secondary research across Beauty and Nutrition
  • Deliver regular insight outputs — consumer panels, brand tracking, NPS, market sizing and competitive intelligence
  • Translate insight into clear, actionable direction for senior stakeholders — shaping strategy, not just informing it

Team Leadership

  • Lead and develop the Group Insight team — Insight Manager and Graduate Insight Analyst

  • Coach team members on research methodology, analytical rigour and stakeholder communication

  • Work with Beauty and Nutrition analytics leads to connect insight with commercial and operational data

Research & Methodology

  • Commission and manage primary research — qualitative and quantitative — working with research agencies where appropriate
  • Maintain and evolve brand tracking, NPS and customer panel programmes
  • Synthesise secondary research — market reports, competitor intelligence, industry data

What skills and experience do I need for this role?

Essential

  • Experience (typically 5+ years) in consumer insight, market research or brand analytics
  • Experience leading an insight function or team
  • Proven ability to deliver strategic insight to senior stakeholders
  • Experience with primary research — both qualitative and quantitative methodologies
  • Strong commercial acumen — able to connect consumer insight to business strategy

Desirable

  • Experience in e-commerce, beauty, wellness or FMCG sectors
  • Exposure to brand tracking or NPS programme management
  • Familiarity with data analytics tools and the ability to work alongside quantitative analysts
  • Experience managing external research agencies

THG Career Framework — What Good Looks Like at This Level

  • Deep functional expertise in consumer and market insight — trusted by senior leaders as the authority on consumer and market dynamics
  • Influences decisions at divisional level through insight and credibility — shapes the agenda
  • Acts as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders — translates research into clear direction and action
  • Connects insight to commercial outcomes — articulates the business implications of what the data shows
  • Drives innovation in how insight is gathered, synthesised and communicated
  • Builds and sustains a high-performing team — coaches the Insight Manager and Graduate effectively
  • Manages budgets and external agency relationships with discipline

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
