1What this role really is

This role is all about digging into the global market to find out what's really going on. You'll be the one providing the raw material for our big strategic decisions, making sure we're not just guessing. Think of yourself as a detective for market trends, competitor moves, and customer behaviour in different countries. You'll be working with data from all sorts of places, trying to make sense of it so we can figure out where to play and how to win.

2What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

ExcelAdvanced

Building complex market models, cleaning and manipulating large datasets (up to 50K rows), using Power Query for ETL, and creating dynamic scenario models with data tables. You might even write basic VBA macros for repetitive tasks.

Tableau / Power BIBasic

Connecting to clean data sources, building standard dashboards from templates, applying filters, and creating basic calculated fields to visualise market trends and competitive landscapes.

Euromonitor Passport / StatistaIntermediate

Navigating these platforms to pull pre-defined reports and data sets on market size, brand share, and consumer trends. You'll be able to find relevant data points for your analyses.

Python (pandas, Matplotlib)Intermediate

Independently writing scripts to ingest, clean, merge, and analyse data sets that are too large or complex for Excel. You'll also use it to create basic visualisations for exploratory analysis.

Miro / MURALIntermediate

Actively participating in brainstorming sessions, creating and organising digital sticky notes, and building basic flowcharts for market entry frameworks or competitor analysis workshops.

Anaplan / PigmentAwareness

Interpreting models and dashboards built in the platform, understanding how your market insights and inputs affect broader financial plans or strategic forecasts. You won't be building models here yet, but you'll need to understand them.

3What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choiceComing inWhere you are nowThe step above
Data Source SelectionProposes options, requires approval from supervisor.Independently selects and uses approved data sources; consults senior team for new or expensive sources.Defines preferred data sources and methodologies for the team; approves new vendor relationships up to £5K.
Analytical MethodologyFollows established templates and methodologies, with guidance.Chooses appropriate methodologies for routine problems; proposes adaptations for novel situations, consulting senior team.Designs and implements new analytical frameworks; makes technical decisions within project scope.
Project Prioritisation (within your workload)Follows supervisor's prioritisation.Manages own task prioritisation for assigned projects; escalates conflicts to senior analyst.Prioritises own workstreams and provides input on team project prioritisation.
Market Entry RecommendationsContributes data and analysis to support recommendations.Develops initial market entry hypotheses and provides data-backed arguments; recommendations are reviewed by senior team.Leads the development of market entry strategies and presents recommendations to leadership.

4How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, honestly: the hard targets, how often each one is actually looked at, and the quiet human signals that never make it onto a dashboard.

Data Accuracy
The precision and correctness of all data pulled, analysed, and presented in your reports.
Target · >98% accuracy on all data points and report inputs.

If you pull market size data for France, it should match the source exactly, and any calculations based on it should be correct. A £50K discrepancy in a £1M market size estimate would be a significant miss.

Turnaround Time
How quickly you deliver standard market intelligence requests or complete assigned analytical tasks.
Target · Delivers 90% of standard data requests within 48 hours; 85% of project tasks within agreed deadlines.

A request for a competitor's pricing strategy in Germany should be delivered within two days, allowing the Sales team to react quickly. Missing a deadline for a market entry report means we might miss a window of opportunity.

Insight Contribution
The number of times your specific insights or analyses are directly incorporated into final strategic recommendations or executive presentations.
Target · At least 1-2 key insights from your analysis are included in final strategic recommendations per quarter.

Your analysis of a specific market's regulatory landscape directly leads to a recommendation to delay entry by 6 months, saving the company from potential fines. Or, your competitive analysis highlights a gap that Product decides to address.

Project Task Completion
Successfully completing all assigned analytical tasks for larger strategic projects.
Target · Successfully completes 100% of assigned analytical tasks within project deadlines, with minimal rework.

You're responsible for the PESTLE analysis for a new target country. Completing all sections on time, with robust data, means the Lead Strategist can move forward without delays.

Clarity of Communication
How clearly and concisely you present your findings, both in written reports and verbal updates.
  • Your reports are easy to understand for non-specialists
  • you can explain complex market dynamics in simple terms
  • your presentations have a clear 'so what' for the audience
  • stakeholders don't need to ask for clarification often.
Proactive Problem Solving
Your ability to identify potential issues with data or analysis early on and propose solutions, rather than just pointing out problems.
  • You flag data inconsistencies before they become a problem
  • you suggest alternative data sources when the primary one is unreliable
  • you propose new analytical approaches when existing ones aren't working
  • you don't wait to be told what to do when you hit a roadblock.
Stakeholder Feedback
The positive feedback received from internal stakeholders (e.g., Product, Sales, Finance) on the usefulness and quality of your work.
  • Stakeholders actively seek your input for new projects
  • they praise your thoroughness and insights in informal conversations or formal feedback sessions
  • they 'thank you' for saving them time or preventing a mistake.
Analytical Rigour
The depth and robustness of your analytical approach, including your ability to question assumptions and triangulate data.
  • You consistently challenge initial assumptions with data
  • you use multiple sources to validate key figures
  • your methodology is sound and defensible when questioned
  • you can articulate the limitations of your analysis.

5Would you like it

The honest version. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Solving Complex Puzzles

You get a real kick out of taking a messy, ambiguous market question and breaking it down into manageable pieces, then finding the data to answer it. The more challenging the puzzle, the more engaged you are.

Being asked to figure out the true market size for a niche product in Southeast Asia, where data is scarce, sounds like a fun challenge rather than a chore.

Making a Tangible Impact

You want your work to actually be used. Seeing your analysis directly influence a new product launch in Germany or a decision to enter the Japanese market is what drives you. You're not content with just producing reports that sit on a shelf.

Your research on consumer preferences in Brazil directly leads to a product feature being prioritised, and you see that feature launch and succeed.

Continuous Learning & Growth

You're always keen to learn new analytical techniques, understand new markets, or get better at using tools like Python or advanced Excel. You actively seek out feedback and opportunities to expand your skillset.

Volunteering to learn a new data visualisation tool or taking an online course on scenario planning, even if it's not immediately required for your current project.

What frustrates people
  • The Data is a Lie (or at least incomplete): You'll spend 60% of your time hunting for, cleaning, and trying to stitch together messy, conflicting, and often outdated data, especially for emerging markets.
  • Death by a Thousand Stakeholders: Your 'pure' strategy will be compromised by the competing agendas of Sales (who want a bigger TAM), Finance (who want conservative forecasts), and Product (who don't want to change their roadmap).
  • The Crystal Ball Problem: You'll be asked to create a 3-5 year forecast, knowing full well it will be rendered obsolete by a competitor's move, a new technology, or a global pandemic within 6 months. You will still be asked why you didn't predict it.
  • The Strategy-Execution Gap: You'll deliver a brilliant, data-backed analysis that gets praise, only to watch it die a slow death due to a lack of operational resources, political will, or quarterly pressures. It's frustrating when your hard work doesn't translate into action.
  • "Just give me the number": You'll be constantly battling executives who don't have time for the nuance and want a single, definitive answer to an incredibly complex question, often ignoring the caveats you've carefully laid out.
What this role does not give you
  • A perfectly structured, predictable work environment where every project follows a clear path and all data is readily available.
  • Guaranteed implementation of every piece of analysis you produce—the reality is messier, and not everything makes it to production.
  • A role where you only deal with numbers and don't need to engage with people and their different perspectives.

6Who you work with

This role provides the foundational market intelligence that underpins our international expansion strategies. Your work directly informs decisions on new market entry, competitive positioning, and product localisation. Get it right, and we grow smarter and faster; get it wrong, and we risk costly missteps in new territories.

Inside the business
  • Senior Market Strategy Analysts (your direct team)
  • Product Managers (especially those focused on international offerings)
  • Regional Sales Leaders (who'll use your market insights)
  • Finance Business Partners (who need your forecasts for budgeting)
Outside the business
  • Market Research Vendors (e.g., Euromonitor, Statista)
  • Industry Analysts (whose reports you'll be dissecting)
  • Data Providers (who supply the raw market intelligence)

7What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • Proven ability to conduct independent quantitative and qualitative research, ideally within a market analysis or business intelligence context.
  • Demonstrable experience building and maintaining complex Excel models for data analysis and forecasting.
  • Experience in presenting data-driven insights clearly and concisely to non-technical audiences.
  • A track record of identifying and solving problems using data, even when the data is imperfect.
  • Strong command of British English, both written and spoken, for clear communication with global teams.

8What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Advanced Python for Data Science

As datasets grow larger and market analysis becomes more complex, Python will become your go-to for tasks that Excel simply can't handle. You'll need to move beyond basic scripting to more robust data manipulation, statistical analysis, and even predictive modelling.

Advanced Pandas Operations · Statistical Modelling with SciPy/Statsmodels · Data Visualisation with Seaborn/Plotly · Web Scraping (BeautifulSoup/Scrapy)

  • This week: Identify one repetitive data cleaning task you do in Excel and try to automate it with a Python script.
  • This month: Complete an online course or tutorial on advanced Pandas techniques for data manipulation.
  • Month 2: Work through a project that involves pulling data from an API or web scraping using Python, then cleaning and analysing it.
  • Month 3: Experiment with building a simple linear regression model in Python to forecast a market trend, comparing its output to your Excel models.

Quick win: Find a small, publicly available dataset and try to perform all your usual Excel operations (filtering, sorting, pivot tables) using Python's Pandas library. It's a great way to bridge the gap.

9Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Regularly read industry publications and market research reports (e.g., The Economist, McKinsey Quarterly, Harvard Business Review) to stay current on global trends and strategic thinking.
  • Attend webinars or online courses on advanced Excel, Python for data analysis, or data visualisation best practices.
  • Participate in internal company workshops or training sessions on new product launches, regional strategies, or financial planning processes to deepen your business understanding.
  • Seek out opportunities to present your analysis to different internal teams, honing your communication and storytelling skills.

The ten Future Fluencies

Zavmo analysis

The credential is what you can do today. These are what keep you valuable.

A qualification proves you can do the job as it's defined today. These ten are what decide whether you're still the obvious person for it in five years. They're the capabilities employers are now writing into senior roles faster than people are learning them. Zavmo weaves them through whatever you study, so you come out with both: the credential and the fluency.

The highlighted ones are the Fluencies your role leans on hardest, from how Market Strategy Analyst is actually changing. In about two minutes, the free confidence check asks where you stand on each of the ten. That's the whole check, and it's what makes the plan yours rather than generic.

Zavmo is a hyper-personalised AI learning platform. Twelve virtual tutors, each with a different way of teaching, and one orchestration agent that picks the right one for the moment. So every single lesson is shaped around you, your role, and the way you learn. Not a course everyone sits through. A conversation built for you, and no one else.

13What it feels like

A conversation, not a course

Because your tutor knows your role, your projects and your last session, learning sounds like this. And it's different for every single person:

A course is written once and handed to everyone. This is assembled around you, and keeps changing as it learns you. Five things it reads, and what each one changes.

  1. Your actual work Every lesson is taught against a live piece of your own work, not a worked example from a textbook.
  2. What you already know The first conversation finds your starting point, so you skip what you can already do and spend the time on what you cannot.
  3. The conditions you learn under Not a learning-styles quiz. The evidence does not support those. The dimensions the research does back, read once and used to shape the plan.
  4. How far you got last time It picks up mid-thought. The tutor knows what you said, what you struggled with, and what it asked you to try.
  5. Which tutor suits the moment Twelve of them, each for a different kind of thinking. The one who walks you through a first idea is not the one who stress-tests it.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, a big chunk of market strategy work is about sifting through mountains of data and drafting reports. What if you could cut down on the grunt work and focus on the juicy insights? Our AI Productivity Hub is designed to do just that.

For a Market Strategy Analyst, AI isn't about replacing your brain; it's about giving you a super-powered assistant. You'll spend less time on manual research and basic drafting, freeing you up to do the deep thinking, critical questioning, and strategic storytelling that really moves the needle.

Automated Competitor & Market Monitoring

Imagine an AI agent constantly scanning news, press releases, regulatory filings, and social media for mentions of our key competitors or emerging market trends. It then delivers a concise, summarised daily briefing straight to your inbox. No more endless manual searches.

Accelerated Thematic Analysis

Got thousands of customer reviews, survey responses, or expert interviews? Feed them into an LLM and ask it to identify the top 5 praise points, 5 common complaints, or 3 emerging feature requests. This cuts days of manual reading and categorisation down to hours.

Rapid Report Synthesis

Upload a hefty 100-page market research report from Gartner or Forrester. Ask an AI tool to give you a one-page executive summary, extract all statistics related to market size, and list the top 3 strategic recommendations. This saves you hours of reading and note-taking per report.

Draft Stakeholder Communications

Once your analysis is done, give the key findings to an AI assistant. Ask it to draft three versions of your summary: a punchy paragraph for the exec summary, a bulleted list for the project team, and a detailed section for the formal strategy document. This speeds up your drafting and wordsmithing significantly.

The honest bit

You’ve started things before

Most of them were built for a room full of people who aren’t you. A cohort moves on whether or not your week allowed it, and by the third week the thing you’re behind on becomes the reason you stop opening it.

There’s no cohort here, and no timetable to fall behind. Before anything starts, Zavmo asks when you’re sharpest and how long you can realistically sit down for, then builds the sessions around those answers. A bad fortnight changes your pace. It doesn’t put you behind.

And you only pay once you start learning. Searching and planning are free, and you can cancel any time — so the cost of finding out is an afternoon, not a year.

What it costs

Less than one coaching session. Every month.

A single career-coaching hour costs more than a month of this, and it ends when the hour does. Zavmo doesn't. It's £70 a month, about £2.30 a day, for a companion that knows a Market Strategy Analyst, works on the job you actually do, and keeps going at your pace rather than a timetable's.

  • Searching and planning stay free. You only pay when you start learning.
  • Your credits are yours. Regulated, and they don't vanish when a subscription ends.
  • Cancel any time and billing stops. No notice period, no minimum term.

Your path, personalised

You have the map. Walking it is the part we do together.

This route runs to 10 national skill standards. That is a real journey.

Zavmo shapes a learning experience as unique as you are. It fits how you learn, your pace and the work you already do. Every step stays benchmarked to recognised national standards. That’s the plan for becoming a Market Strategy Analyst: personal to you, and it still counts. The first steps are free.

Independent research finds well-designed intelligent tutoring performs nearly as well as one-to-one human tutoring: VanLehn (2011), Educational Psychologist.
