Experience:

• 3-5+ years of experience in a high growth environment in data analytics and/or strategic consulting.
• Very strong attention to detail, experience developing processes to improve efficiency.
• Proficient in SQL and quantitative analysis, you can deep dive into large amounts of data, draw meaningful insights, dissect business issues and draw actionable conclusions.
• Outcome-driven approach to developing recommendations and demonstrated ability to develop a story and execution plan to support our goals and objectives.
• Exceptional communication (listening, written, and oral) skills with the ability to present findings and recommendations targeted to the audience in question.
• A drive to understand the core issues along with the determination to uncover the solution.
• Excels at dealing with ambiguity and change management.
