It could be the start of something, well, extraordinary.

 

Sounds great, what will I be doing? 🤔

As our Junior Data Analytics Engineer you’ll focus on ensuring the quality and integrity of our data throughout the pipeline. You'll use internal tools to process and validate data from our global surveys, making sure it’s accurate and ready for use on our platform.

It’s also fun; shaking things up is what working for a growing company is all about. So you’ll need to be flexible, comfortable with continuous change, and working in a high-tempo environment as we grow.

 

What do I need to bring with me? 🧳

You’ll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires. You don't have to tick all the boxes right away; the important thing is that you’re willing to learn. Here’s what the team will be looking for:

👉 Experience using Python to manipulate and transform data 👉 A passion for working with data, ensuring its quality, and documenting your work carefully 👉 Strong attention to detail and a proactive approach to solving problems 👉 A collaborative and growth mindset with an interest in sharing ideas, learning from others and open to feedback 👉 Good communication skills — you’re able to explain technical topics to non-technical teammates 👉 Strong attention to detail and a proactive approach to solving problems   Bonus if you also bring:
👉 Experience with survey data, cloud platforms (like GCP), ETL pipelines, databases, or version control tools (like GitHub).

Equally important is attitude. We want people who think big (to make an impact), ask why (to find a better way), and show respect (to everyone, at every level, all the time). Those are our values, exemplified by our leadership team, and they’re a big part of what we’re looking for in you.

 

Interview steps 👟

👉 Preliminary phone call with the Talent Team (no video required) 👉 First video interview with the hiring managers  👉 Second (and final*) video interview with the hiring panel, often including a presentation, followed by a values conversation with members of the wider GWI community.

*Don’t be alarmed if there are other stages in the process, it’s all part of the plan for some of our roles.
