Position Summary

We are seeking a highly motivated Research Data Analyst to support our research analytics endeavours. This unique position offers the opportunity to work closely with both our data and research teams, pushing the boundaries of data exploration on research related to supply chain innovation, digitization, and decarbonization.

Note:This is a primarily office-based role (4 days per week in office and 1 day work from home per week). Candidates must have the right to work in the UK, though Tier 2 visa sponsorship is available for applicants who meet the eligibility requirements.

In this role, your primary focus will be explorative analysis, using strong analytical skills to frame the right questions and delve into data in search of emerging patterns. The data team will support you with data discovery, ingestion, and quality assurance, while you’ll use SQL and Python to self-serve from our internal SQL database, allowing for efficient and autonomous exploration, and follow your own curiosity to pursue new inputs for dataset creation. With the research team, you will write reports and prepare frameworks and deliverables aligned with our research agenda, while reserving a portion of your time to support customer engagements.

Key Responsibilities

• Engage in hypothesis-driven explorative analysis to uncover new insights and answer questions around supply chain digitization and decarbonization.
• Frame and refine data-focused questions that address strategic industry topics.
• Over time, you'll play a role in mentoring junior team members, sharing best practices in hypothesis generation to help them approach data-driven questions with a strategic lens.
• Independently query our internal SQL databases allowing you to self-serve and explore data without heavy dependencies on the data team.
• Collaborate closely with data team members to identify, ingest, and prepare new datasets relevant to your research.
• Conduct primary research on AI and other advanced technology implementations within the supply chain sector.
• Visualize and present findings in ways that enhance understanding and support decision-making.
• Work with Research Directors to shape insights into member-facing content, including keynotes at our conferences, and strategic reports.

Who you are

You are an experienced research analyst, research manager, or data analyst with a curiosity-driven, critically minded approach to research analytics. With 4-6 years of professional experience in this field, you have solid SQL skills and are adept at both identifying the right questions to ask and creating innovative ways to answer them, including developing proxies and leveraging unconventional data sources. You thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment and are excited by the challenge of uncovering new patterns and insights to drive industry-leading research.

Requirements

• Basic proficiency in Python and SQL (BigQuery), with the ability to self-serve analysis queries and modify existing code for more complex and advanced data manipulation - preference given to candidates with more extensive skills.
• Strong analytical mindset, with a talent for framing the right questions to drive meaningful explorative analysis.
• Ability to visualize data effectively, ideally with experience in PowerBI or similar tools. Excel is a must.
• Experience conducting exploratory analysis to derive insights from large, complex datasets.
• Exceptional problem-solving skills to tackle multifaceted data questions and identifying new data sources.
• Strong communication skills for explaining findings in research reports and discussions with cross-functional teams.
• Ability to work both independently on explorative projects and collaboratively within a fast-paced environment.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Exposure to data science, LLMs, or machine learning, especially in exploratory contexts.
• Experience and/or interest in AI and its applications within supply chain.
• Academic background or strong interest in supply chain or similar field.
