What You’ll Do

• Three master surveys (CSat, First Impressions, Churn) using:

  - Brand and market-specific items handled via display logic and data flags
• Cleaner survey builds with:
  - All legacy/duplicate questions and unnecessary translations removed
  - Redundant workflows retired
• Governed data feeds:
  - Single, stable export per tracker (via Qualtrics / API) into internal databases and Power BI
• Full documentation:
  - Questionnaires, logic, codebooks, and “old vs new” mappings to preserve data comparability over time

Discovery & audit

• Inventory all legacy surveys by brand / market / language, including:
  - Question IDs, variables, translations, and historic “copy-of-a-copy” deviations
• Map brand/market-specific needs (e.g. competitor lists) into a consolidated design that:
  - Preserves longitudinal comparability
  - Allows blank outputs where items are not applicable (N/A)

Survey scripting in Qualtrics

• Build and maintain master questionnaires in Qualtrics, enforcing:
  - Stable question IDs and recode values
  - Embedded Data structure and variable governance
• Implement:
  - Survey Flow, branching and display/skip logic
  - Piped text, loop & merge, translations
  - Creation, review and pruning of workflows
• Establish and enforce:
  - Naming conventions, version control, and change management for standardised questionnaires

Quality assurance

Documentation & enablement

• Produce questionnaire specs (e.g. Word) documenting:
  - Final question wording, routing and logic per tracker
• Create codebooks (e.g. Excel) for complex questions, mapping:
  - Variable names, values and recodes
  - Brand/market/product differences
• Document “current state vs new state” for:
  - All questions and codebooks
  - Any changes impacting trend/comparability, with mitigation notes

Collaboration

• Work closely with:
  - UX / Research to ensure business needs and comparability are met
  - Data Engineering on export schemas and Qualtrics→DB/Power BI integration

• Strong governance mindset, including:
  - Naming/ versioning standards
  - Change logs and rollback plans

Nice to Have
