- Experience building recurring, full business-line reports and analytical frameworks at scale
- Strong communication abilities to convey analytical findings to leadership and cross-functional partners
- Familiarity with customer retention frameworks, pipeline tracking, and sales performance metrics
Qualifications
- Experience operating in a technology, marketplace, or B2B sales setting
- Familiarity with CRM data, including Salesforce, and its connection to downstream analytics
