New Western Europe MD at NielsenIQ

Darolles (pictured) has been the global FMCG clients group leader at NielsenIQ since 2020.

She has also held various other positions at Nielsen in Europe and Asia, as well as Kantar and Unilever, during a career spanning around 20 years in market research.

In her new role, she will guide market and commercial leaders, oversee business operations and work with manufacturers, retailers, and emerging brands. 

Based in France, Darolles reports to Tracey Massey, chief operating officer at NielsenIQ.

Massey said: “Emilie’s expertise and track record of success make her the ideal leader to drive our business forward in Western Europe.”

NielsenIQ, formerly Nielsen Global Connect, became a standalone private business after it was sold by Nielsen in 2021.
