You’ll lead a team of Analysts and other associates to gather and visualize data, storytell through presentations, collaborate with experts in areas like legal and technology, and influence senior leadership on critical decisions.

You’ll work with coding languages like SQL to query data, use spreadsheets and python-based notebooks to organize it, and slides to present it, along with a number of other modern analytics tools.

We work in agile, cross-functional teams so you’ll also have the opportunity to learn from others like Data Scientists, Process Managers and Brand Strategists too.

You will apply your strategic and analytical skills to major company challenges. You’ll team up with world-class professionals to develop and test strategies that ultimately impact the bottom line.
