We are seeking a skilled and adaptable senior data analytics professional to join a nimble and best-in-class data team. The role will report to the Director of Intelligence Engineering and lead on sharing the ownership of the delivery of consistently high quality, actionable analytics projects within The Beatport Group.

The ideal candidate will have 4‑5 years of direct experience in a typical analytics / insights / BI or a similar style of team, with 1+ year in a lead/senior capacity. The candidate will demonstrate expert proficiency in data visualisation and semantic layer design, alongside responsibility for establishing and enforcing data quality, testing, documentation, and governance best practices. LookML development experience would be particularly advantageous in this regard.

As a senior role within the team, it is also expected that the candidate will be able to take responsibility for the day‑to‑day operations of the Intelligence Engineering’s work streams in the medium term, and will build out strong mutually beneficial relationships recomenda stakeholders, both internal and external.

The role will work across the majority of The Beatport Group’s constituent business units, and the candidate will need to be confident in regularly operating between a number of diverse data stacks on a day‑to‑day basis. Analytics work streams will include the analysis of e‑commerce store performance, recurring subscription‑type analysis, web analytics and so on. As the candidate develops, it is expected that they will have greater exposure to our UK‑based Data Science team’s work streams, so some exposure to A/B testing methodologies, regression analysis, or any ML libraries would be advantageous too.
