Industry Analyst

Nutrition Business Journal (NBJ) is the premier market sizing data and business insights organization in the nutrition dietary supplements industry.

We are part of Informa's New Hope Network whose mission is "to cultivate a prosperous high-integrity CPG and retail ecosystem that creates health, joy and justice for all people while regenerating the planet."

At NBJ, we contribute to this effort in two major ways: serving the market with syndicated and custom research services and by contributing to market-leading content creation that is designed to help our clients and audience discover, connect, inspire, and lead. The former hits the market in the form of extensive reports on industry performance, down to the ingredient (the what), the reason for purchase (the why) and the channel in which purchase is made (the where). The latter is in the form of our esteemed monthly journal serving executives in the nutrition industry.

What sets us apart is our use of proprietary data, our industry insider team of journalists, analysts, trend spotters, and our extensive network of industry connections, which collectively enable us to develop forward-looking, predictive insights and solutions.

What we're looking for:

Nutrition Business Journal is seeking an Industry Analyst. The Industry Analyst will work to maintain and enhance our existing Nutrition Business Journal (NBJ) market size and growth models, support efforts to build new models, and work with retail POS data, survey data and other data sources to create content.

This position is good for a detail-oriented individual able to focus on data quality in a complex (excel) data model who wants to be part of a small but influential team operating at the center of a dynamic and growing industry.

This role will be NBJ's "back of the house" analyst with a focus on excel data model maintenance and improvements, data integrity and QA/QC checks and balances. This person will work very closely with the team's other "front of the house" (more data presentation focused) Industry Analyst as well as with the team's content creators, and external clients.

If you are excited by the idea of being an industry expert and sitting at the forefront of thought leadership and innovation in the consumer goods industry this is the place to be.
