About this role: 

The Business Intelligence Analyst/Associate role is part of the Americas Institutional Business COO team, working in Sales Enablement. This role is focused on transforming the experience for BlackRock's sales teams, their partners, and the COO team we directly support. The team works closely with sales, internal technology teams, and functional business partners to develop impactful reporting and analytics for strategic business decisions. This role will also be responsible for owning recurring reporting to deliver back to Sales and senior leadership in a timely fashion, and work towards improving the controls on those procedures for the future.

The role will require effective use of Excel, Power BI, as well as other technology tools. You will also need a proficiency transforming raw datasets into intuitive information for Sales and COO members. Using Python and SQL can be a big plus in this role but is not required.

Key Responsibilities:

• Support for existing Power BI reports.
• Ability to connect information across multiple datasets and give business clarity on that information.
• Prepare weekly and monthly manual reports to deliver to Sales and senior leadership.
• Enhance & create new Power BI reporting with business counterparts.
• Working with COO to create new projects and visuals in Power BI or XLSX.
• Working with Engineering to incorporate new datasets needed to create these new ideas that Sales is bringing to the team.
• Proficiency in data review and ensuring new data sources, and provided datasets are accurate (quality control of the platform used for Reporting).

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree.
• Detail oriented self-starter who can manage their time effectively.
• Proficiency using Excel / tabular data.
• Proficiency using Power BI (or other software, such as Tableau).
• Data modeling, and strategies for cleaning and validating data.
• Experience with Python / SQL for data transformation a plus.
• Experience working in a Finance firm a plus.
• Microsoft Dynamics experience a plus (or other CRMs).
• UX or design experience a plus.
