This is what your day could look like

You’re working already for a couple of days on an analysis request posed by senior management. You defined some hypotheses and collected the required data. You already performed some data quality checks and worked on the first hypotheses. Today you want to work on a complex one, that requires a lot of different datasets, combined with business knowledge. You get stuck half-way the day, but luckily you’re not alone, so you team up with another data analyst and together come up with a plan. You execute the plan, create a narrative with some powerful visualization, that you add to the ones you already had. Tomorrow you will work on the last bits and create a summary report of your findings that can be shared with the management. 

What we offer

• A dynamic and fast‑growing retail environment.
• Competitive salary and benefits package.
• 24 vacation days (based on full‑time employment).
• Travel allowance and pension contribution.
• Learning and development opportunities.
• A collaborative culture focused on improvement.
• Work with Azure, Databricks, SAP Datasphere, and SAP Analytics Cloud.

Who are you?

You are analytical, proactive, and able to translate complex data into clear insights. You communicate with impact and enjoy working with both business and technology. Preferably you have experience within a retail environment in the commercial domain, and you are familiar with analyses around promo, market-basket, shelf space, impulse etc.

Requirements

• Master’s degree in a quantitative field
• 5+ years’ experience as a Data Analyst
• Experience with SQL, PySpark, Python
