  • Partner with IT and data teams to implement scalable solutions that integrate with existing systems and data infrastructure.

Planning & Cross-functional Support

  • Partner with sales, marketing, finance and supply chain teams to align on forecasts, targets and business plans.
  • Conduct ad-hoc analysis to support strategic initiatives and executive decision-making.
  • Identify process improvement opportunities and help the team work smarter through data-driven approaches.

Communication & Stakeholder Engagement
  • Present findings and recommendations clearly and concisely to sales leaders and cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Translate complex data into business language that non-technical audiences can act on.
  • Build and maintain relationships across the organization to understand data needs and ensure insights remain relevant.
