Job description

We’re looking for a Data Analyst to join our team here at ClearScore in Cape Town. You will join the team in delivering insight and analysis which allow ClearScore to rapidly scale and deliver a seamless experience for our users. Analysts play a key role within ClearScore, driving strategy and key decision‑making, which ultimately benefits our users, partners, and other teams within the business.

ClearScore has an amazing analytical community which includes Data Analysts, Scientists and Engineers. The community works collaboratively to ensure a landscape in which team members can develop their full potential and deliver maximum business impact.

ClearScore is both a free credit score and report service and the UK’s leading consumer credit marketplace. As a part of the team, you will play a key role in monitoring and reporting on marketing and acquisition performance; supporting the marketing and product teams to run experiments and improve UX and monetisation and supporting the leadership team in developing the overall strategy.

What you will be doing:

• Develop comprehensive monitoring and reporting dashboards using SQL and Domo.
• Collaborate closely with the marketing team, providing insights into the performance of our various marketing channels.
• Conduct detailed analysis of AB tests to enhance conversion rates across our website’s landing pages.
• Lead in‑depth analytics projects, leveraging data to uncover opportunities and address complex business challenges.
• Support different squads by conducting analyses crucial for launching new features, enhancing existing ones, and driving growth across verticals.

Skills We'd Love You To Have:

• You must possess SQL and Excel skills. Knowledge of dbt, python, and analytical tools such as Amplitude is a plus.
• Experience using Domo or other data visualisation tools such as Tableau.
• Strong quantitative and numerical skills.
• Ability to plan and prioritise your own workload and that of your team.
• You have a desire to learn and enjoy working collaboratively, with a desire to contribute to our culture.
• You do not need to fit into a stereotype: we are really committed to closing our gender gap and are actively trying to create an environment where you, as an individual, can thrive.

Why ClearScore?

ClearScore is on a mission to make the world of personal finance clearer, calmer, and easier to understand. It starts with the free credit score and report but we're about to do so much more.

We want to take the complex financial decisions that people make in their lives and make them easier. We hold one of the biggest FinTech user bases in the world of over 22 million users but run ourselves like little start‑ups. You're encouraged to challenge the status quo and fight for the better.

Since our launch in July 2015 in the UK we have expanded our product into South Africa in 2017, and Australia in 2020 and Canada in 2022. Our company culture is a fundamental part of all we have achieved. We believe in hiring smart, driven, passionate and diverse people who are keen on having a real impact in our organization.

We trust you to manage your own time, so we offer flexible work and no fixed desk hours. We don't micromanage and believe in measuring outcomes rather than effort. We have an inclusive culture where all, regardless of seniority, are encouraged to contribute with their ideas, look after their wellbeing and actively seek opportunities for career growth.

We also have a super‑fast and friendly interview process, which is more like having a friendly discussion than being put under a microscope or pressure. We want to know the real you and if you'd be a great fit for us.

Benefits:

• Holidays – 20 paid holidays (plus public holidays) and a “duvet day” on your birthday.
• Pension Fund contribution over and above salary.
• Private Medical Insurance.
• Eye Tests.
• Medical Aid Benefit over and above salary.
• Continued investment into learning and development.
• Flexible work hours and the ability to work from home.
• Flexible, generous, and personalised maternity and paternity plans.
• Monthly team events and office days out that we get to choose, and company events at the end of each quarter and retro.
• Employee Assistance Program.
• ClearScore Support Hub.
• Perkbox.
