SUMMARY

We are looking for a smart, experienced, and motivated Data Visualization Manager to join our Columbus team.

The Data Visualization Manager is responsible for designing and developing compelling data visualizations solutions to enable actionable insights & facilitate intuitive information consumption for stakeholders. You will work with internal departments to define their analytic requirements and administer their corresponding data environments. You will service clients internally and externally, requiring strong communication skills, the ability to translate technical executions into laymen's terms, and the capacity to translate client needs/requests into actionable solutions. You will be a valued member of the team with the opportunity to shape the way that we collect and share data, influencing processes and efficiency across the agency and its clientele.

This is a hybrid work from home/office position (in-office attendance is required on Tuesdays & Thursdays) and the candidate must live near Columbus, OH.

At The Shipyard, we know that it's your unique talents, backgrounds, and perspectives that make you who you are, just like our team, who come from various career paths and experiences. We believe we can't be truly diverse without bringing your most authentic self to the agency.

Studies show that people from marginalized communities may not always apply for positions if they don't meet every single requirement in a job posting. At The Shipyard, we encourage you to apply even if you don't meet all the requirements. We believe that your passion for what we stand for — our values and purpose — is just as important as meeting every checkbox.
