What is a Research Analyst at The Clorox?
At The Clorox Company, a Research Analyst plays a pivotal role in bridging the gap between scientific innovation and consumer satisfaction. Operating primarily out of key technical hubs like Pleasanton, CA, this position is situated at the intersection of Research & Development (R&D) and Consumer Experience. You will not just look at data in a vacuum; you will analyze how physical products—ranging from cleaning disinfectants to personal care items—perform in the hands of real people.
Your work will directly influence multi-billion-dollar household brands like Clorox, Glad, Brita, and Burt's Bees. By translating complex technical evaluations and consumer feedback into actionable insights, you help the company refine product formulations, optimize packaging, and launch successful new products. The role requires a unique blend of scientific curiosity, analytical rigor, and commercial awareness, making it both highly challenging and immensely rewarding.
This position is critical because The Clorox relies on data-driven decision-making to maintain its market leadership. As a Research Analyst, you are the voice of the consumer within the laboratory and the technical expert within the marketing room. Successful candidates are those who can seamlessly pivot from discussing chemical stability with R&D scientists to brainstorming brand positioning with product managers.
