About the company:

WE BELIEVE THERE’S A BETTER WAY TO FEED OUR FUTURE.

By shifting from animal to plant-based meat, we can positively affect the planet, the environment, the climate and even ourselves. After all, the positive choices we make every day – no matter how small – can have a great impact on our world.

COMPANY DESCRIPTION

At Beyond Meat, we started with simple questions. Why do you need an animal to create meat? Why can’t you build meat directly from plants? Thus, we make plant-based meats that allow families to eat more, not less, of the traditional dishes they love while feeling great about the health, sustainability, and animal welfare benefits of plant protein. Our goal is to bring exciting change to the plate—and Beyond.

As the Manager of Insights & Analytics, the key focus of this role is to analyze and translate point of sales data for a deeper understanding of drivers and trends within the category as well as key retail channels and accounts. This individual will work with cross-functional teams to generate compelling insights that will contribute to topline sales goals for the company.

This position reports to the Director of Insights & Analytics and is required to be based onsite at our El Segundo HQ office full-time 5 days a week.
