This is a cross-functional role, where the analyst will partner closely with multiple regional and global operations teams and with product & tech teams to gather business requirements and implement improvements that enhance visibility, productivity, and performance.

  • Use data-driven insights to support strategic initiatives and continuous improvement efforts
  • Identify opportunities to improve data visibility, consistency, and reporting effectiveness across teams

Process & performance management

  • Identify operational pain points, inefficiencies, and manual workarounds across end-to-end processes
  • Analyze these processes and data flows to uncover opportunities for optimization and automation
  • Support the opportunities and solutions to reduce manual effort and enable teams to focus on higher-value activities

Communication & Stakeholder Management

  • Support alignment across stakeholders through clear, structured communication
  • Translate complex analysis into simple, actionable narratives
  • Develop materials that support decision-making and track progress against key initiatives
  • Communicate changes effectively to support adoption across regions

  • Experience contributing to process improvement, redesign, or operational initiatives
  • Experience building dashboards and working with operational data
  • Advanced Excel required
  • SQL preferred
  • Exposure to automation tools, workflow optimization, or AI-enabled processes preferred

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
