Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Multi-Source Analysis & Insights: Audience Segmentation & Behavior Analysis: Analyze attendee demographics, behaviors, and content consumption patterns within an experience to identify what resonated most with specific audience cohorts.
  • Brand Health & Sentiment Analysis: Synthesize qualitative data from post-event surveys, focus groups, and social listening to measure shifts in brand affinity, Net Promoter Score (NPS), and message retention.

  • Big Data Analytics Infrastructure: Work with tools like BigQuery to store, clean, and analyze massive datasets (such as beacon data and spatial metrics).
  • Process Automation: Help automate routine data collection workflows, specifically supporting our growing workbench of strategist-facing tools.
  • Data Cleaning & Consolidation: Merge disparate data streams—like registration lists, on-site engagement logs, and third-party research—into unified datasets for analysis.

Requirements

  • Experience: 3–5 years of experience in marketing analytics, data strategy, or decision science—ideally within an agency, consulting, or brand-side marketing environment.
  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in a quantitative field such as Statistics, Mathematics, Data Science, Economics, Business Analytics, Psychology, or a related discipline.
  • A versatile mindset that balances analytical rigor with inspired creativity, with the ability to distill complex data sets into compelling narratives.
  • Preferred Toolsets: Data Analysis & Scripting: Strong knowledge of Python or R for statistical analysis.
  • Databases & Data Ops: Experience with BigQuery (or similar cloud warehouses) and Airtable for data management and centralization.
  • BI & Visualization: Hands-on experience building clear, intuitive dashboards in Looker Studio, Tableau, or Power BI.

Preferred

  • A working knowledge of AI and agents, with a proactive approach to leveraging these technologies to enhance our workflows, processes, and overall capabilities.
