This is a temporary full‑time position for 12 months. The word “problem” isn’t even in your vocabulary, but when a client describes a challenge you already turn it into a query.

• You love to share thoughts and ideas – after all, two heads are always better than one.
• You’re a born organizer and a stickler for details, which allows you to juggle multiple tasks effortlessly and always stay ahead of things.

How You’ll Make An Impact

• Report to the Agile Team Lead, Analytics and Business Intelligence.
• Support the team of Analysts on initiatives that transform data into analytics and present findings to all levels of AMA leadership.
• Work closely with business leaders across multiple lines to document clear project requirements based on in‑depth knowledge and understanding of strategy and processes.
• Perform analysis for a wide range of requests using data from various platforms.
• Actively partner with business leaders and customers to provide advice stemming from data and process analysis taken from internal and external sources.
• Facilitate the transformation of data into critical knowledge and insights that support sound business decisions.
• Create concise, audience‑appropriate, actionable communications characterized by strategic insight.
• Provide input to the development of performance metrics, reporting formats and dashboards.

• Verify data meets required quality standards.

What You Bring To The Table

• You have a degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Business Management or a related field.
• Have experience with Agile/Scrum? Even better.
• Strong understanding of businesses and their strategies enables you to validate results and identify critical issues.
• You have 3–5 years of data analysis or related technical experience, significant database querying (SQL), data analysis, and visualization experience using Excel and Power BI.
• Experience with Python or Snowflake is highly desirable.
• Do you have specialized training/certification or equivalent work experience? Tell us about it and why it’s relevant to your career as a Business Data Analyst.
