Job Summary

Own the data strategy for marketing analytics, turning complex datasets into decision-ready signals that drive targeting, measurement, and cross-channel performance.

  • Data strategy and governance: define good data, fill gaps, and align sources across paid, web/app, CRM, social listening, and research.
  • Analytics delivery: build dashboards, translate questions into analyses, and deliver ROI-focused recommendations.
  • Social signals and executive storytelling: own social intelligence tools and connect signals to campaign outcomes and leadership-ready narratives.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own and expand key marketing and market-intelligence datasets (internal + external), including defining what "good data" looks like for the business.
  • Proactively identify data gaps and clearly articulate requirements: what we need, why we need it, where it should come from, and how it will be used.
  • Source and integrate analytics inputs across platforms (paid media, web/app, CRM/email, social listening, research, third-party data).
  • Build and enhance dashboards, reports, and visualizations that provide reliable, real-time visibility into performance and drivers.
  • Partner with data governance/technology teams to ensure data quality, definitions, and integration across systems.
  • Create repeatable processes to convert large, complex datasets into signal-over-noise insights and measurable recommendations.
  • Own social intelligence workflows and tools (e.g., Brandwatch, Meltwater, NetBase) and connect social signals to campaign and market outcomes.
  • Translate ambiguous questions into structured analyses: define the question, determine the data needed, validate assumptions, and deliver insights.
  • Deliver integrated analytics (segmentation, predictive/propensity insights, ROI optimization, test-and-learn readouts) that improve targeting and performance.
  • Establish benchmarks, track progress, and communicate insights to channel and project leads with clear implications and next steps.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience; 7+ years in marketing analytics, insights, market research, or adjacent analytics roles.
  • Proven ability to operate as a self-starter: independently driving analyses from vague problem statements to decision-ready outputs.
  • Demonstrated success working with large, complex datasets and turning noisy inputs into clear, defensible recommendations.
  • Strong capability to define and advocate for data needs (requirements, definitions, sourcing options, tradeoffs, and business value).
  • Expertise translating data into executive-ready recommendations across decks, one-pagers, dashboards, and verbal narratives.
  • Deep knowledge of marketing KPIs and measurement concepts (segmentation, predictive analytics, attribution/measurement frameworks).
  • Advanced proficiency in Tableau/Power BI/Excel and strong PowerPoint skills.
  • Strong stakeholder management, communication, and project execution in fast-paced environments.
  • Market research and intelligence gathering; strong social/digital ecosystem knowledge.
  • High proficiency in Boolean logic, media monitoring, and social content analysis.
  • Strong organization, attention to detail, and ability to manage competing priorities.
  • Client-service mindset and comfort working under tight deadlines.
  • Comfort partnering with technical teams and navigating data ambiguity (definitions, gaps, inconsistent sources).

Preferred

  • Strong SQL skills and experience querying large datasets.
  • Experience contributing to or owning analytics datasets in a database/warehouse environment (e.g., Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift) or building "single source of truth" reporting layers.
  • Familiarity with data modeling, ETL/ELT concepts, dbt, Airflow, or lightweight automation (Python/R).
  • Experience evaluating and integrating third-party datasets and vendors.

Benefits

  • Employer-sponsored health benefits (medical, dental, and vision); retirement plan with company match; commuter benefits
  • Generous paid time off and paid holidays, plus professional development and learning support (stipends, training, and tuition reimbursement), and more.
