About The Position

We’re looking for a curious, data-forward Category Insights Manager to help GALLO drive profitable share growth by turning shopper behavior into clear, actionable stories.

This role thrives on building and maintaining a robust shopper insights database, managing multiple projects independently, and presenting ROI-backed recommendations that unlock growth across brick-and-mortar, customers’ online platforms, and third-party marketplaces. Success in this role means becoming the go-to expert on shopper behavior systems for the total alcohol beverage category, coaching peers and leading weekly check-ins with Shopper Behavior Client Leads, and preparing monthly and quarterly analyses to identify performance improvement opportunities. You’ll use clear data visualization and storytelling to secure distribution, support promotional planning, and align with regional and corporate sales objectives. Comfort with ambiguity, an entrepreneurial mindset, and a bias for innovation and practical risk-taking are essential. We value ownership, candid collaboration, and inclusive leadership. We welcome candidates from diverse backgrounds and experiences who demonstrate strong analytical skills, excellent communication, and a collaborative spirit. If you bring curiosity, rigor, and the ability to translate complex data into business impact, you’ll help shape the future of GALLO’s category strategy while growing your career in a supportive, safety- and quality-conscious environment. Join us to influence what shoppers see and buy—and to drive meaningful growth for iconic brands.
