Purpose of the Role

We are seeking a bright and ambitious candidate to work within Dentsu Data Lab’s fast growing Data Insights & Visualization unit. 

Working with a leading retail business you will be owning their entire Data Visualization framework, from the data collection and transformation to the front-end dashboarding solutions, which are constantly evolving, as activity and technologies progress. 

This role will involve co-ordinating projects through collaborating and connecting teams across dentsu. You will be responsible for managing this project and its multiple stakeholders, along with taking ownership of the quality and accuracy of reporting. 

A solid experience of Tableau is a must, with additional knowledge of tools such as those present in the Google Marketing Stack and Meta, and/or exposure to ETL solutions such as Datorama or Adverity a positive for the role. All in all, you will be a strong, hands-on data specialist with broad knowledge spanning from data engineering to insights-motivated data visualization.

We anticipate the scope of this role to increase as our client’s analytics needs become more sophisticated. We will also provide opportunities to work in other areas across the business including attribution modelling. 

This varied role requires a blend of raw technical skills and an eye for data. Comprehensive on-the-job training will be provided but we expect the candidate to be able to pick up new skills quickly.
