The Role

We’re looking for a revenue-driven, high-agency Data Analyst to supercharge our marketing performance. This role is perfect for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, owns their projects end-to-end, and has a relentless focus on driving tangible business outcomes.

You’ll be a key player in transforming how we leverage data to optimise marketing spend, improve ROI, and accelerate growth across multiple regions. You’ll build scalable reporting infrastructure in Metabase using Snowflake, maintain a reliable source of truth for marketing performance, and support the implementation of integrations and attribution models that improve decision-making across the funnel.

You’ll sit within the HQ Marketing team, reporting to the Senior Product Manager, Growth, and collaborate closely with website, engineering, paid media, content, and CRM teams — as well as learn from other data professionals across the business.

What are the main responsibilities for this role?

• Build and maintain high-impact dashboards in Metabase or Looker Studio that unlock revenue-driving insights, leveraging data from Snowflake, Meta, Google Ads, GA4, Marketo, Salesforce, and internal tools.
  
• Generate actionable, revenue-focused insights to guide campaign strategies, reduce customer acquisition costs, and maximise return on ad spend (ROAS).
  
• Take full responsibility for the data lifecycle — from extraction to insight — ensuring clean, consistent, and trustworthy data flows across platforms and teams.
  
• Develop and iterate on multi-touch attribution models, enabling precise measurement of marketing impact across the full customer journey.
  
• Spearhead offline conversion integrations (e.g., Salesforce → Google Ads), defining requirements and collaborating with engineers to deliver seamless data flows.
  
• Identify and eliminate bottlenecks in data processes, improving the speed and reliability of performance insights.
  
• Act as a trusted data partner to marketing, product, and engineering teams, proactively identifying opportunities to drive revenue growth.

What Success Looks Like

• Revenue Impact: Marketing outcomes improve over time — driven by your reporting, integrations, and insight delivery — and reflected in stronger ROAS and lower acquisition costs.

• Trusted Data: We have clearly defined, consistently maintained dashboards and accurate, aligned data across platforms — trusted by stakeholders as a single source of truth to support fast, informed decision-making.

• Scalable & Effective Solutions: You develop attribution models that clarify the impact of marketing initiatives across the customer journey — while building scalable data infrastructure that grows with the business and supports advanced analytics needs.

• Proactive Ownership: You independently identify and resolve data discrepancies, optimise attribution, and drive ongoing improvements without waiting for direction.

• Cross-Functional Influence: Marketing, product, and engineering teams actively seek your input to shape strategy and execution.
  

What skills and experience are required?

• 2–5 years in data science, analytics, or a related role, ideally with a focus on revenue-driven performance marketing.
  
• Expert-level SQL, Python, and hands-on experience with data warehouses like Snowflake. Familiarity with Node.js is a plus.
  
• Deep understanding of platforms like Metabase, Looker, Google Ads, Meta, GA4, Salesforce, and Marketo.
  
• Self-starter who takes full ownership of projects, thrives in ambiguity, and drives outcomes without micromanagement.
  
• Ability to break down complex data problems, identify patterns, and derive insights that directly impact revenue.
  
• Skilled at simplifying complex data for non-technical stakeholders, ensuring insights are understood and acted upon.
  
• Always looking for ways to optimise, iterate, and scale data processes to unlock greater business impact.
