• Creating dashboards and reports to present key insights to stakeholders across the business.
• Collaborating with cross-functional teams to translate data into actionable strategies.
• Staying ahead of industry trends and best practices to keep Ocado at the forefront of innovation.

What we're looking for

To succeed in this role, you'll need:

• Strong experience as an Analyst, ideally within a Big Data environment.
• Expertise in SQL (analytical SQL required) and familiarity with Excel, VBA, Python, R, or other programming languages.
• Exceptional problem-solving skills, both quantitative & qualitative.
• Stakeholder management expertise, with the ability to influence decision-making.
• Clear communication skills, capable of translating complex data into business insights.
• A proactive, detail-oriented mindset, with the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.
• A passion for sharing knowledge and best practices across the team.

• Intro Call (30 mins) - Speak with our Lead Recruiter, Richard Wandowski, to discuss your experience and find the right role fit.
• Case Study Task - Short data analysis exercise for shortlisted candidates.
• Interviews (1-2 stages) - Scenario-based, technical, and behavioural interviews, including a discussion of your case study.
• We'll assess not just your technical expertise but also how you deliver insight-driven analysis, explain the 'why' behind the data, and communicate findings using data storytelling techniques like the STAR method.
