Harmonic are delighted to be working with a rapidly growing Music business who are looking to recruit a Strategy Analyst.

You’d be tasked with reporting, presenting, and distributing your findings and suggestions across the business, giving you the opportunity to have a direct impact on business strategy and performance.

Top line? We’re looking for an ambitious, curious, strategy analyst who, most importantly, LOVES the music industry.

Responsibilities

• Conduct qualitative and quantitative research, creating PowerPoint presentations, briefings, or written reports
• Analyse business/project performance, economic drivers, competitor performance, relevant policy/political developments and report their impact on business’ interests
• Track and monitor initiatives and projects, taking initiative to problem-solve and flag concerns to keep performance on schedule
• Keep track of trends affecting the music industry
• Liaise with Finance and Data teams to complete reports and obtain/analyse relevant data
• Ad hoc tasks to support the Director of Strategy
