Data & Analytics Lead - Commercial Migration (Temp/Interim)

Great two year assignment for a Data & Analytics Lead with commercial acumen!

Analyze and overhaul the global Trade Promotion data landscape with an international food&drink company in Utrecht. You will navigate seven years of legacy reporting, making the hard calls on standardization versus local customization to build a future-proof analytics foundation. Are you a "Player-Coach" with experience in commercial migrations? Then get in touch with us right now!

Among your responsibilities:

• Migration Scope Arbitration: Lead deep-dive assessments of legacy reporting to decide which local streams to migrate and which to replace with global standards.
• Technical Design & Delivery: Own the end-to-end development lifecycle, ensuring seamless integration between the commercial platform and the corporate Azure Data Lake.
• Hands-on Technical Validation: Act as the final authority on data models and architectural decisions, validating technical work in Azure rather than just delegating.
• Stakeholder Diplomacy: Partner with business leaders to "sell" standardization decisions to local markets, balancing enterprise guidelines with pragmatic business needs.
• Process Mastery: Map complex Trade Promotion flows (ROI, Base vs. Promo volume) into technical data structures to ensure operational excellence.

The ideal candidate brings:

• BSc/MSc in a relevant domain (IT, Technology, Business or similar).
• 7+ years in Data & Analytics leadership, specifically driving data workstreams during large-scale global system migrations or upgrades.
• Technical fluency in Azure & Power BI, with deep expertise in data warehousing concepts and complex data model validation.
• Commercial/RGM domain expertise, understanding the business logic behind Trade Promotion Management and how it translates to data fields.
• Proven "Player-Coach" mindset, comfortable navigating high ambiguity and making executive-level decisions on data centralization.
• Stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence local markets and challenge legacy technical debt.
• FMCG industry background, preferably with experience in high-volume consumer goods and commercial reporting structures.
