What you’ll do

• Support data analytics and strategy development for a materials transformation project.

• Work with vendor data to optimize alignment and capabilities.
• Support cross‑functional teams on data reporting and enterprise initiatives.
• Help your 10‑person team hit seasonal goals while building toward longer‑term priorities.

• 2+ years of data analytics experience (business‑focused, not engineering‑heavy).

• Solid SQL skills; experience with Snowflake, Python, R, or Alteryx is a bonus.
• Problem solver who digs into messy data and doesn’t need hand‑holding.
• Team player who communicates well across functions and geographies.
• Self‑starter who can handle ambiguity and think on their feet.
• Background in retail, procurement, sourcing, or supply chain is ideal.
• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, analytics, business, or a related field preferred but not required.
