Senior🎓
Top SchoolJonathan Olmsted is a research science leader with 14 years of experience designing large-scale consumer measurement methodologies and leading teams that turn messy, high-frequency receipt data into reliable insights. As VP at Circana (and previously at The NPD Group), he oversees statistical adjustments and methodology for panels capturing over 150,000 monthly consumers, blending applied data science, causal inference, and predictive modeling to ensure long-term, defensible solutions. Trained in quantitative social science with extensive university research and teaching experience, he excels at mentoring junior researchers and building sustainable analytic infrastructure across product and academic contexts. He’s known for bringing structure where it’s missing—translating complex statistical methods into operational processes that scale—and for pairing technical depth with a pragmatic focus on what will still work tomorrow.
