Preferred (But Not Required)

• At least 1 year of agency‑side experience
• Google Looker Studio experience
• Familiarity with Google Analytics and other similar analytics platforms
• Confidence in communicating with internal clients and presenting insights
• Experience with A/B testing tools and campaign tracking implementation
