Lead Analyst, Market and Competitive Intelligence
Insights & Analytics, H&M Group
For over 70 years, H&M Group has worked towards our mission of democratising fashion for people around the world. We also believe that fashion should not only be about looking good, but something that helps people feel good about themselves every single day.
The Insight and Analytics (I&A) is a multidisciplinary team that studies the world to inform, inspire and ignite the imaginations of our colleagues across the H&M Group. We advocate for the needs of our customers and help the company cultivate the knowledge it needs to make creative and enlightened decisions.
As one of the largest brands in the world, our designs touch millions of people every day. Our scale means we serve people across cultures, languages and in 71 countries. With such a wide presence, our understanding of the world’s diversity is critical to our business.
We are looking for people to join our team who are as passionate as we are about discovery, asking questions and learning about people, fashion and culture. This role will blend the creative use of market data, with a broader understanding of the cultural, technological and economic forces that are shaping the fashion industry.
We are a team from a wide range of backgrounds and there is no uniform profile we are seeking. Our expectation is, that you are imaginative, have an investigative background, and have a rigorous understanding of journalistic practice, or market and competitive intelligence. You do not need to come from inside the fashion industry, and we hope you will still apply even if you don’t have a conventional profile.
