Reporting & Dashboards

• Build and maintain recurring dashboards, reports, and data visualizations (executive, departmental, operational).
• Develop automated reporting where possible to reduce manual effort and improve timeliness.
• Translate business questions into clear metrics, visuals, and narratives.
• Own report documentation (metric definitions, refresh cadence, data sources, and assumptions).

Data Analysis & Insights

• Perform analyses such as trend analysis, cohort analysis, segmentation, and variance/root-cause analysis.
• Support forecasting and planning processes with analytical inputs (drivers, seasonality, scenario inputs).
• Identify emerging risks/opportunities and proactively surface insights to stakeholders.
• Package findings into concise written summaries and presentation-ready outputs.

Stakeholder Support

• Serve as an analytics partner to business owners; gather requirements and iterate on solutions.
• Provide training and enablement for end users on dashboards and self-service analytics tools.
• Support special projects, audits, and time-sensitive analysis requests.

Success Measures

• Complete and accurate “single source of truth” / Model Database for KPIs and reporting standards.
• Produce a prioritized reporting inventory with owners, definitions, and refresh schedules.
• Improve the accuracy and consistency of top KPIs (agreed definitions and reconciliations).
• Deliver automated dashboards/reports and reduce manual reporting hours.
• Establish a repeatable cadence for insight sharing (weekly/monthly performance readouts).

We’re looking for someone who has:

• Bachelor’s degree in Data Analytics, Statistics, Economics, Finance, Computer Science, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• 2–5+ years of experience in analytics, reporting, or business intelligence (role-level dependent).
• Strong SQL proficiency; able to query and validate data independently.
• Advanced Excel (pivot tables, Power Query preferred).
• Experience with BI tools such as Power BI and/or Tableau.
• Ability to communicate findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Strong attention to detail; strong judgment around data integrity and metric definitions.
