The Role:

The International eCommerce Trading team fuels global growth by managing and optimising online product sales across 72 international markets.

Your natural curiosity and commercial business sense will allow you to master new information quickly, helping you focus on what truly matters to our customers. By combining your passion for new technology like AI with a talent for building relationships across the company, you will lead the charge in using data to grow the business and find creative ways to solve everyday challenges.

• Deal with new partner data requirements.
• Problem solve issues that cause items to be offline using data.
• Leverage AI and automation tools to detect, predict, and prevent product errors and speed up time to online.
• Build reports and visualisations for wider team and business visibility.
• Communicate analysis to the wider team, share knowledge and understanding.
• Build, maintain and grow relationships with all relevant internal and external stakeholders.
• Explore the latest technologies available and select the right tools for the job.
• Seek opportunities to continually modernise the way we work.

What You’ll Bring:

• Proven experience as a data analyst, specifically with the ability to ingest external data and map internal data to facilitate successful third party partner launches.
• Hands on experience with Databricks and Power BI to enable seamless collaboration with cross functional data teams.
• A strong commercial background with the ability to distinguish business critical data.
• A keen interest in AI and its application in solving complex data sharing and integration challenges.
• An inquisitive nature that allows you to master new data structures quickly and easily.
• Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to network business wide and champion the growth and use of data across the organisation.
• Degree level education with prior experience in a dedicated data related role.
• A self-motivated, highly organised problem solver with a meticulous eye for detail and the adaptability to tackle evolving challenges.
