Job description / Role
The Strategy & Data team uses data-driven insights to fuel strategic growth for clients. We believe that data should never exist in a vacuum; instead, it should be put to work to bring the best ideas and solutions to our clients.
To help with this, we’re looking for a Senior Data Analyst - someone who has the knack for seeing solutions in sprawling data sets and the business mindset to convert insights into media, content, and digital strategies.

• Own digital marketing analytics (social, website, ecommerce, CRM) and forecasting, compiling data from multiple sources to create dynamic reports, dashboards, and ad hoc analyses, etc.

• Proactively analyze online user behavior, CRM data, social media data, eCommerce conversions, customer journeys, funnel analysis and multi-channel attribution in order to develop strong hypotheses and uncover business insights and opportunities across marketing channels, tactics, and audience segments.
• Design beautiful, engaging, and personalized reports for senior team members and clients on a recurring, ad-hoc, and proactive basis. Additionally, present recommendations (visually and verbally).
• Partner with development and tech teams to ensure we are capturing the most meaningful data accurately for reporting and analysis purposes (eg: QA’ing tags and campaign setup).
• Manage existing data tools (Adobe Analytics, Google Analytics, Sprinklr, etc) – creation of self-service dashboards, liaison with tech support, and even finding new ways of unlocking tool’s potential.
• Develop digital campaign and web measurement strategies, models, and frameworks.

Analytical Skills:
• A deep interest in research and data analysis, drawing actionable insights form raw data and information to help further the business’s cause.
• Demonstrated ability to create analyses that move beyond an explanation of ‘what happened’ to ‘why it happened’ and ‘what should be done’.
Communication Skills:
• Great communication skills in written, visual, and verbal form, is a must.
• Ability to draw reports for the departmental heads, management, and key stakeholders.
• These reports have to be clear, convincing, informative, engaging, unambiguous, and uniquely tailored to suit different audiences.

• Advanced experience with Adobe Analytics, Adobe Target, Google Analytics, Adwords, Google Tag Manager, Ecommerce tools (like Shopify), and Social analytics tools (like Sprinklr and Social Bakers) is a must.
