Job description

Careerscape is recruiting on behalf of our client for a Reporting Analyst to join their growing team in Des Moines, Iowa. This hybrid role is a great fit for a detail-oriented data professional who enjoys turning raw numbers into clear, actionable insight that shapes real business decisions. Our client is looking for someone who can own the reporting process end to end, from pulling data to presenting findings to stakeholders across the organization.

Day to day, you will spend your time building and refining dashboards, digging into datasets to spot trends, and partnering with teams across finance, operations, and leadership to answer their most pressing questions. The person who thrives here is naturally curious, comfortable with ambiguity, and just as happy writing a query as they are explaining what it means to a non-technical audience. If you like solving puzzles with data and seeing your work directly influence strategy, this role offers plenty of room to make an impact.
