Contract: Perm
Salary: Upto £50,000
Location: Milton Keynes
Start date: ASAP
As the Chief Data and Analytics Officer, you’ll stretch the imagination of what the power of data and insights can bring to how our client operates. You’ll help to unlock the value of the company’s enormous multi-brand, multi-channel data asset in a centralised ‘mini consultancy’ style analytics team that supports wide parts of the business. And you’ll use your intense curiosity to find creative ways to land impactful analysis that directly supports the company strategy of ‘win in food’, ‘brands that deliver’, and ‘save to invest’.
You’ll be working in the Applied Data & Analytics (ADA) function as a Digital Analyst reporting to the Analytics Manager. This role will use our comprehensive data, industry-leading tools and data visualisation to understand the behaviour on our digital channels for Food, General Merchandise and Clothing and then feed that insight into teams across the business. This is achieved by a mix of project-based work, day-to-day insight and analysis, as well as supporting stakeholders’ self-serve. This role suits an experienced Analyst, looking to line manage and build leadership skills, as you will be line managing Associate Analyst(s).
Responsibilities:
- Provide insight into behaviour on our digital channels and present this in a variety of different ways from a quick conversation to presenting a deep dive insight pack or a self-serve dashboard, providing commentary and making recommendations.
- Support and collaborate with digital and broader analytics teams to prioritise and deliver the backlog.
- Look for new ways to develop existing reporting and processes through automation and optimisation along with research into emerging technologies and ‘best practice’.
- Collaborating with other teams to make sure we’re capturing the right data, in the right place, at the right time.
- Drive your development, while you’ll have ample support and training where required, with the constantly evolving landscape in data and analytics, it’ll be important to identify your development needs and the best way to grow them.
- Line manage Associate Analyst(s).
Requirements:
- Experience with Adobe Analytics is required, though experience with other digital analytics tools will be considered.
- An agile and innovative thinker, you’ll be able to think creatively with a logical and methodical approach to problem-solving and coming up with ideas.
- Excited by digital and retail, you’ll be curious about data and the adoption of new technologies and tools.
- A proven track record of delivering actionable insight and demonstrable business change through the application of analytics.
- Self-starter with initiative and good self-management skills, able to prioritise and work collaboratively as a valuable member of a team in a fast-paced environment.
- Passionate about your development, adaptable and have a growth mindset.
- Excellent communicator, credible and articulate, with good presentation and relationship-building skills. Able to build trust with stakeholders and explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
- As we try to bridge the gap between classic digital data and broader business data, experience with any sort of coding (e.g. SQL, Python/R, VBA or others) would be very valuable but not essential as training can be provided.
- Familiarity with data visualisation techniques or tools (e.g. Tableau, QlikView, Microsoft Power BI or MicroStrategy) would be useful but not essential.
