Responsibilities
This is an exciting opportunity for a current or aspiring analytical and technical analyst who excels at delivering analytics that drive action, builds trust, and partners effectively across multiple functional areas (Corporate Agency, Planning & Analysis, Enterprise Technology, Enterprise Research, etc.). You should have a passion for development within a high-performing technical/data team.
On this team, you will lead efforts to determine how Agency Channel Performance can best leverage business insights and analytics to make strategic decisions and measure progress. In this role, you will become a trusted analytical partner to teams within Agency Channel Performance, ensuring our business partners have the insights needed to execute on strategic priorities. You will also work closely with the new Agency Analytics function, which provides data support, analytics, and insights to the broader Corporate Agency department. This partnership will be essential to our collective success.
You will use data from a variety of quantitative and qualitative sources to assess progress toward outcomes and provide valuable insights into the factors influencing results. The selected candidate will work with a variety of roles at all levels of the organization and must therefore possess strong communication skills—written, verbal, and presentation. This role requires significant autonomy, so you should be a self-starter, decisive, and able to apply good judgment.
The ideal candidate will also possess insatiable curiosity and a passion for deep understanding—constantly asking “Why?” and seeking to know more to develop greater insight into the topics being explored. While this job includes reporting responsibilities, it is primarily a business intelligence role focused on developing and cultivating intelligence to inform decision-making.
