About the company

EntryWise Global helps international brands launch into UK retail. We go into real UK shops and gather evidence on how products are priced, placed, packaged and bought. That evidence tells brands what to change before they launch, and where to launch.

Our services:

• Retail Readiness Score: a scored assessment of how ready a brand is for UK retail
• Field Validation: in-store research and shopper insight across UK retailers
• Launch Support: practical help with pricing, range, packaging and choosing stores

We’re an early-stage UK company (registered in England and Wales, no. 17548716) working with brands from Asia and beyond. We’re building a small advisory board of experienced people to help us grow.

About the role

We’re looking for a Data Analytics Advisor to guide how we collect, analyse and present retail data. You’d act as a sounding board for the founder. You’d review our methods, challenge our assumptions and help us turn shop-floor evidence into clear, reliable insight for clients.

This is a voluntary advisory position, not employment. It’s flexible and remote, and it’s built around your schedule.

What you’ll advise on

• Data collection: how we design store visit checklists, shopper surveys and price audits so the data is consistent and useful
• Data structure: how we organise and store field data across stores, retailers and product categories
• Retail Readiness Score: the scoring criteria, weighting and benchmarks behind our main product
• Pricing and competitor analysis: methods for comparing client products against UK competitors on price, pack size and positioning
• Client reporting: dashboards, charts and reports that busy brand managers can act on
• Quality checks: spotting gaps, bias or errors in our data and conclusions
• Feedback: reviewing reports, plans and documents we send you

Qualifications

Essential

• 3+ years’ experience as a data analyst, insight analyst or in a similar role
• Strong skills in Excel and/or SQL, plus at least one visualisation tool (Power BI, Tableau, Looker or similar)
• Able to turn messy, real-world data into clear, practical recommendations
• Good communicator who enjoys mentoring or advising

Nice to have

• Experience in retail, FMCG, consumer goods, e-commerce or market research
• Knowledge of UK retailers, category management or shopper insight
• Survey design or fieldwork experience
• Experience working with or advising startups
  

What we offer

Although this role is voluntary, we want it to be worthwhile for you:

• 🏷️ Official title: “Data Analytics Advisor, EntryWise Global”, which you can add to your LinkedIn profile and CV
• 📄 Reference and recommendation: a written reference letter and a LinkedIn recommendation from the founder, describing your contribution
• 🌐 Public recognition: your profile and bio credited on our website, and a mention in partner and investor materials (with your permission)
• 💼 Real-world portfolio work: hands-on experience with live UK retail market-entry projects for international brands
• 🤝 Network: connections with international brands, UK retail contacts, academics and other advisors
• 💷 Future paid opportunities: first consideration for paid consultancy, project work or a formal role as the company grows and funding allows (not guaranteed)
• 🗓️ Full flexibility: no minimum hours, remote, and fitted around your main job
• 🧾 Expenses: reasonable out-of-pocket expenses repaid when we agree them in advance
  

Time commitment

• One call between every month and every six months (video, phone or in person), whichever suits you
• The odd short question by email in between
• Initial 12-month term, then rolling. Either side can end it at any time, with no notice needed.
• A simple advisor agreement sets out the role, confidentiality and use of your name
