- You’ll build clear driver trees and explain variances across sales, gross profit, labour productivity, operating costs, inventory losses and store contribution.
- You are expected to partner with country Finance and Operations teams to validate findings, understand local context, and convert analysis into practical improvement hypotheses and measurable follow-up actions.
- You will develop global benchmarks, peer groups and advanced analyses , including store ramp-up curves, portfolio segmentation, trend and cohort analysis, and scenario-based business cases.
- You’ll be tasked to design management-readyperformance narratives using Power BI, SAP and other relevant data sources, with strong emphasis on data quality, transparent methodology and repeatability.
- As part of the role you will provide concise, fact-based recommendations to senior stakeholders and contribute to the further development of global performance steering standards and reporting solutions.

- You can distinguish correlation from causation, challenge data and assumptions constructively, and communicate limitations transparently.
