Job Description

Senior Manager, Global Consumer Insights (Freelance/Contract)

We’re partnering with a well-known global consumer brand to find a Senior Manager, Global Consumer Insights for a high-impact contract opportunity. This person will step into a strategic insights function supporting brand, product, and marketing teams during a key leave coverage period, with an ideal timing of early July through mid-November.

This role is ideal for someone who knows how to turn research into action. You’ll work closely with internal stakeholders and top-tier research partners to shape briefs, guide studies, pressure-test findings, and translate data into clear recommendations for the business. The focus is less about building dashboards or writing heavy code, and more about consumer understanding, storytelling, and strategic application. Ideally this person has led consumer insights work that informs brand strategy, campaign development, product decisions, and marketplace understanding, and knows how to connect research to action.

The right person brings experience in consumer insights within apparel, footwear, or a closely related consumer brand environment. Deep agency-side experience can also work well, especially if you’ve partnered directly with brands and know how to bridge research with real business context. This role requires strong judgment, excellent communication, and comfort working across brand, marketing, and product design teams.

You’ll likely be involved in a mix of vendor management, custom research, survey development, insight synthesis, concept and campaign testing, product feedback work, and stakeholder presentations. About half the work sits with external research partners, while the other half is more internal and cross-functional. Experience managing agencies and shaping research outputs for executive and cross-functional audiences is important.

Helpful tools and platforms may include Q/Displayr, Excel, PowerPoint, Tableau, Power BI, Euromonitor, Circana, Mintel, and Alchemer. Light familiarity with SPSS, R, panel platforms, or AI-assisted insights tools is a plus, but this is not a deeply technical analytics role.
