ABOUT THE ROLE

As a member of the Global Business Operations (GBO) Team, the Senior Business Analyst helps turn business questions into clear insights, reliable data, and practical improvements to how teams work day-to-day. You’ll work within a small, globally distributed group of analysts, partnering closely to share best practices, align on standards, and provide coverage across regions.

This role is hands-on and varied: some days you’ll be building a Salesforce dashboard or a Google Sheets “dashboard-style” view that combines multiple data sources; other days you’ll be monitoring how teams are using Salesforce to ensure processes are being followed and the data is trustworthy; and often you’ll be juggling multiple ad hoc projects at once.

This is a strongly technical, tools-driven role: you should enjoy getting under the hood of systems and data, and be comfortable spending significant time in Salesforce, Excel/Google Sheets, and dashboards/reporting tools. You’ll also get hands‑on exposure to new tools and systems we’re bringing in - especially newer AI add-ons - helping us test what’s possible and turn that into practical, scalable ways of working.

You will work on‑site in our midtown Manhattan office at least 3 days every week.

YOU WILL
  • Build Salesforce reporting to precise specifications, including tailored outputs for different stakeholder needs.
  • Create and maintain Salesforce dashboards, ensuring they remain accurate, relevant, and easy to use.
  • Develop “dashboard‑style” reporting in Excel and Google Sheets, to include linking Salesforce outputs into Sheets and combining multiple data sources where required.
  • Monitor Salesforce usage (most commonly within Sales) to help ensure processes are followed and data is reliable; identify gaps and support teams to improve adherence.
  • Perform hands‑on Salesforce tasks, such as entering data, creating records, and supporting operational updates to keep workflows moving.
  • Contribute to process improvement tasks and projects - typically in a support capacity, but occasionally taking ownership of smaller initiatives end‑to‑end through to implementation.
  • Create slide decks - or contribute analysis and storytelling to leadership‑ready decks - to communicate insights, recommendations, risks, and decisions.
  • Help evaluate, test, and roll out new tools and systems (including AI add‑ons): run pilots, document learnings, and recommend practical approaches for adoption and scale.
  • Manage multiple concurrent work streams and ad hoc requests; triage effectively, prioritise, and set clear expectations on scope and timelines.
  • Liaise with a wide range of stakeholders across teams and levels, including senior leadership, communicating clearly and proactively.
YOU HAVE
  • Willingness to work in our midtown Manhattan office at least 3 days a week
  • 2+ years of demonstrated experience as a Business Analyst (or similar role) delivering reporting, analysis, and operational/process improvements in a cross‑functional environment
  • Salesforce proficiency with experience:
  • Building reports to specific stakeholder requirements
  • Creating and maintaining dashboards
  • Spotting usage and data‑quality issues and driving improved process adherence
  • Advanced Excel skills and strong Google Sheets experience (e.g., pivot tables, lookups, import‑ranges, data cleaning, building dashboard‑style views)
  • Experience working with data across systems and spreadsheets, including combining sources and creating repeatable, maintainable reporting outputs
  • Strong problem‑solving approach with the willingness to learn new tools and methods, experiment, and iterate to find workable solutions
  • Excellent time management and prioritization skills including experience handling frequent ad hoc requests and multiple parallel projects
  • Highly effective communication skills including the ability to simplify complex topics to land key messages and experience working across levels, up to senior leadership
  • Tableau experience preferred
  • Experience evaluating/testing new tools and translating pilots into practical recommendations and adoption plans, particularly AI tools/add‑ons preferred
  • Experience producing polished, leadership‑ready slide decks and…
