  • Support Conversion Rate Optimisation (CRO) initiatives through insight generation, hypothesis development and experiment analysis.
  • Translate complex data into clear, actionable recommendations that support product, design, growth and marketing decisions.
  • Build and maintain dashboards and performance reporting that help teams monitor key customer and business metrics.
  • Support experimentation and discovery activities, including A/B testing, feature analysis and behavioural insights.
  • Leverage AI-powered analytics tools to improve reporting, audience segmentation, pattern recognition and insight generation.
  • Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, engineers and delivery teams to embed analytics into everyday decision-making.
  • Work with analytics platforms and technology partners to maximise the value of tools such as Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics and BI reporting solutions.

What We're Looking For

You'll bring:

  • Proven hands-on experience in a digital analytics role.
  • Strong knowledge of analytics and tagging platforms, including tools such as Google Analytics (GA4), Adobe Analytics, Google Tag Manager and BI solutions.
  • Experience analysing customer journeys, conversion funnels and digital performance metrics.
  • Excellent ability to communicate insights and recommendations to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Advanced SQL skills and experience working with large, event-based datasets.
  • Experience using Python (or similar technologies) for data analysis, transformation or automation.
  • An interest in AI-enabled analytics and practical experience using modern analytical or productivity tools.
  • Experience working within cross-functional product teams in agile environments.
