• Skilled at translating data into compelling narratives and recommendations for marketing and non-technical stakeholders.

• Experience with languages such as SQL, Python or R, and dashboarding tools (e.g. Looker, Tableau, Power BI).

• Strong understanding of audience segmentation, customer journey analytics and behavioural modelling.

Desirable:

• Familiarity with audience segmentation, or previous experience in media.

• Experience working within agile, cross-functional marketing or growth teams.
