If you’re SQL-savvy, love turning data into insights, and want to grow in a friendly, collaborative, and ambitious team — this is your next challenge.

Ready to join? Let’s make data magic happen.

What You’ll Be Doing:

As part of our tight-knit Data Science team, reporting to a Senior data ninja you’ll be the go-to for data insights across the business. Think of yourself as a “full-stack analyst”:

  • Analyze & Visualize: Turn data into actionable insights via dashboards, reports, and visualizations. Looker experience is great, but if you’re familiar with Tableau or PowerBI, that works too.
  • SQL Heavy Lifting: Write complex queries to uncover trends, patterns, and opportunities. SQL is your superpower here.
  • Data Engineering Exposure: Help maintain pipelines and our BigQuery warehouse, and get hands-on with dbt. Don’t worry if you haven’t used dbt much — we’ll teach you!
  • Collaboration & Impact: Work across Product, Tech, and occasionally with customers to ensure data projects actually deliver value.
  • Pipeline Monitoring & Governance: Keep our data flowing smoothly, securely, and reliably.

You’ll have independence on your projects, but the support of an experienced team who love sharing knowledge — including Nick, who’s been leading our Data Science efforts for over 5 years.

What We’re Looking For

Experience: 3+ years in a data analysis or similar role.

Technical skills (key but flexible):

  • SQL (must-have)
  • Python (nice-to-have)
  • BI tools – Looker, Tableau, PowerBI (any strong visualization experience counts)
  • dbt / BigQuery / GCP – we’ll train if you’ve got solid SQL chops
  • Google Sheets / Excel – for quick wins and ad-hoc analysis

Professional qualities:

  • Curious and analytical – you love digging into the data and asking “why?”
  • Confident communicator – able to translate complex insights for non-technical stakeholders
  • Autonomous and proactive – you don’t wait to be told; you get stuck in
  • Positive, collaborative, and eager to learn – a can-do attitude is everything

Bonus points: University degree (but not essential).

Why this client?

  • Make an impact: Your insights shape decisions and influence strategy.
  • Positive vibes only: We work hard, but we play hard too. No drama, no politics.
  • Supportive culture: In it together, always. We share knowledge and help each other grow.
  • Growth-focused: Learn new skills, stretch your capabilities, and raise the bar.

The Process

  • Quick 2-stage process:
  • 45-min interview with Nick + another tech team member
  • Small technical task – analyse a dataset and tell a story
  • Interviews can be scheduled Monday–Thursday
  • Start ASAP!
