Business Intelligence is a key element in Groupon Coupons business. Our mission is to create a single version of the truth for the coupons business, seeking incremental business gains through data. We are looking for somebody who feels equally confident in modelling data as they do speaking with stakeholders and presenting. A strong commercial focus is a must in this role along with an appetite to solve problems in a pragmatic way. We want to help Groupon be engaging for both merchants and consumers and help to grow our marketplace.
This position will be part of the global coupons BI team. You will be joining the team right at the start of this journey, and there is a need to be flexible with different tasks.
We’re a “best of both worlds” kind of company. We’re big enough to have resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact. We’re curious, fun, a little intense, and kind of obsessed with helping local businesses thrive. Does that sound like a compelling place to work?
You’ll spend time on the following:
- Analysing ongoing business trends and communicating with key stakeholders.
- Investigating new ways of using data in the Coupon business
- Translating business questions into analytic hypotheses, data needs and reporting requirements
- Implementing new data modelling techniques within the team
- Coaching more junior members of the BI team
- Ensuring data-driven decision-making by providing actionable insights drawn from quantitative and qualitative information to help drive business decisions
- Analysing results, and making conclusions and proposals of how to improve effectiveness
We’re excited about you if you have:
- Proven experience working in a data role with a strong track record of identifying new ways of leveraging data for commercial benefit, with at least some experience working with digital data.
- Strong analytical skills and experience working across different technologies/tools with the ability to comfortably work with large data sets
- Strong Data Visualisation skills with ideally Tableau knowledge
- Superior problem-solving skills, self-motivation and the capacity to work under pressure and tight deadlines
- Strong communication and presentation skills.
- Strong SQL skills
- Experience of some modelling techniques such as clustering, regression and outlier detection.
- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced start-up environment, and to manage multiple, competing priorities.
