Role: Insight & Analytics Developer

Location: Manchester (Flexi-working)
Salary: Up to £40,000 + 10% bonus + benefits

With investment from the top into data and all its uses, this is an exciting time to be joining the company and they look to understand and explore their customer’s behaviours and relationships with the brand in more detail than ever before. As always, there is the challenge of educating and liberating existing stakeholders across many different functions within this fashion giant as to the possibilities of data driven decision making and actionable insights – which is where this role comes in.

Working as part of a team of data experts across customer analytics, product, marketing, finance and customer service, you will focus on delivering reports, self-service analytics and insights around customer service and operations for the group. You will report into the Ops Analytics Manager and will both work to build relationships with key stakeholders in the call centres, supply chain logistics and carrier management departments to understand their needs, challenges and potential for using data to improve decision making. In this role, we’ll need people with natural intellectual curiosity to go beyond the basics of just building out regular reports, and expect you to provide proactive insights and commentary on the data analysed.

This role requires hands on SQL programming skills, plus knowledge and demonstrable experience with a reporting tool such as Power BI, Tableau or Qlikview (the latter being the tool they currently use in house). There is huge opportunity for personal and technical growth and development within this role, as the business accelerates its data function, embracing AI and machine learning techniques where appropriate as well as step changing the influence data has on decisioning across the group of brands. They have already invested in a cloud based platform (GCP) and are very open to using open source tech such as R and Python for more advanced analytical solutions and projects.
