Job Description
We are recruiting a motivated and detail‑oriented Data Analyst Intern for a paid, six‑month remote internship within France. You will work on real operational and strategic projects that require consistent data handling, reliable reporting, and clear communication with multiple teams. This internship provides a structured introduction to how a data function operates inside a company: how information is collected, how performance is monitored, and how insights are used to guide day‑to‑day decisions as well as longer‑term planning.
As part of the team, you will support the preparation of datasets, contribute to recurring analyses, take part in performance reviews, and help maintain reporting tools that are used by managers and operational staff. You will be involved in concrete business questions, not hypothetical exercises, which means you will see how your work affects actual activities and outcomes.
