Role Description

Excitingly Kantar Media has partnered with the MMS to build a new Cross-Media Measurement panel in Sweden, that will be one of the first of its kind in the world. We are looking for forward-thinking, diverse, and client-focused individuals to join our team and make this audience measurement panel a success for MMS and Kantar Media.

You will investigate issues or weaknesses in this process and resolve them by implementing direct fixes or developing tools or analyses. These can be used by yourself or other members of the Kantar Media team to generate insights which contribute to improving or maintaining the quality of the panel and the data it produces. You will be included in setting up an exciting and large project from scratch. Therefore, we are looking for a professional who is eager to help build this project using innovative tooling in an international, data-driven organization.
