What will you be doing?

As Circana continues to transition clients onto Unify, our integrated insights platform that brings together market, consumer and business performance data in one place, we're looking for an experienced project professional to lead and coordinate client migrations.

You'll own the migration journey end-to-end, bringing together clients, Client Success, commercial teams and technical specialists to deliver a seamless transition. This is a highly visible role suited to someone who thrives on creating structure, managing stakeholders and guiding clients through change.

Job Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end migration projects for clients transitioning onto Unify.
• Develop and manage project plans, milestones, responsibilities and communication schedules, maintaining a clear view of each client's migration progress.
• Coordinate activities across clients, Client Success, commercial teams, product specialists and other stakeholders to ensure successful delivery.
• Lead client and internal project meetings, providing clear updates on progress, risks, decisions and next steps.
• Present migration plans and status updates to clients, leadership teams and broader business audiences.
• Identify and manage risks, dependencies and roadblocks, driving appropriate action and escalation where required.
• Support clients through the migration process, helping them understand changes, key decisions and required actions.
• Work with technical and data specialists to understand requirements relating to platforms, databases, segmentation and client hierarchies.
• Coordinate readiness, testing, transition and post-migration handover activities.
• Maintain clear documentation of client requirements, decisions and actions throughout the migration lifecycle.
• Drive continuous improvement by helping standardise migration processes, templates, communications and ways of working.

What are we looking for?

• Experience managing client-facing projects, implementations, migrations, onboarding or business change.
• Strong project management skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects at different stages.
• Excellent organisation and attention to detail.
• Confident stakeholder management skills across clients, internal teams and senior leaders.
• Strong written and verbal communication, including the ability to present plans and simplify complex information.
• Experience supporting people or clients through process, technology or platform change.
• Comfortable taking the lead, creating structure and holding stakeholders accountable for actions.
• Able to understand technical and data concepts without needing to build the solution yourself.
• Strong risk, issue and dependency management.
• A practical, adaptable and calm approach when priorities or project requirements change.

Highly regarded

• Experience within FMCG, retail, consumer data, market research, analytics or a related environment.
• Experience migrating clients between platforms, systems or reporting solutions.
• Understanding of data structures, databases, segmentation or client hierarchies.
• Change management, implementation or customer adoption experience.
• Knowledge of Circana’s clients, products or internal processes.
