GA has also been recognized as one of Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500, and Fast Company has dubbed us leaders in World-Changing Ideas as well as the #1 Most Innovative Company in Education.

The Role:

The Senior Marketing Analyst designs reports, builds data-driven processes, and delivers insights to support the work of GA’s Marketing team. This role sits on the global Data team and reports to the Director of Data, with dotted-line reporting into the Marketing department.

The Data team is not only responsible for making sure that GA’s data solutions are speedy, intelligent, user-friendly and accessible to employees across the organization, but also works closely with GA’s leadership team, providing them with data-driven insights that drive greater business performance and strategy.

The Data team at GA is made up of a Director of Data, two Senior Data Engineers, a Data Engineer, three BI Analysts, and a Senior Product Manager. Our current technology stack in data engineering mostly consists of Redshift, Python, SQL, Tableau , and an open-source event-based data pipeline that provides us with real-time data.

The BI team at GA is a small team with significant latitude to solve problems and build scalable solutions. For that reason, this position would appeal to a strong analyst with enthusiasm to learn and grow in an organization whose mission is to empower individuals to do the work they love.

Candidates should have advanced analytical skills, be highly organized, and possess the strong communication skills necessary to work with many different people and teams at GA, often leading high-impact, high-visibility projects. Strong candidates will have experience adapting to the evolving needs of a high-growth B2C and B2B business and creating pragmatic and innovative solutions to complex business problems.

Responsibilities:

• Build and own business models to evaluate key marketing levers (e.g. spend, conversions, bookings) and their sensitivities to hitting targets. Use models for delivering insights and recommendations as well as setting forecasts and targets.

• Provide campaign reporting across market segments. Conduct ad hoc analysis pulling data from multiple sources including historical performance, trends, and benchmarking.

• Monitor and perform root cause analysis on key marketing performance metrics including LTV, CAC, and other KPIs to identify performance and efficiency trends.
• Work with business stakeholders to develop and manage dashboards and reports, and provide data-driven solutions that scale.
• Work cross-functionally with Marketing, Sales, and Finance to determine what data they need to make decisions, so they can ensure the smooth operation of the business and consistent achievement of growth goals.

Qualifications:

• 6+ years of data analyst experience and a problem-solving mindset.
• Confident with end to end data workflows: analysis, reporting, and presenting results in a compelling way.
• Strong proficiency in SQL (Redshift / Postgres preferred), both for ad hoc analysis and data modeling for analytical reporting.
