The Market Analysis team is Apple Retail Real Estate’s strategic and quantitative intelligence function — we build the frameworks, tools, and analyses that inform where Apple invests in its 500+ store fleet globally. We combine rigorous measurement with strategic insight to shape how leadership thinks about market opportunity, fleet composition, and capital allocation. We’re actively transforming into an AI-native analytics team — replacing static, report-driven workflows with automated pipelines, AI-assisted analysis, and scalable tooling.

This role will be a key part of that shift: building and adopting new tools to modernize ways of working.

• This person will define how store and location performance is measured and compared across Apple’s global retail fleet. You’ll develop and maintain the scoring models, benchmarking systems, and measurement frameworks that tell leadership how stores stack up, where investment is working, and where it isn’t.

• What You’ll Do
• Develop and evolve Apple Retail Real Estate’s store performance measurement framework - contributing to the scoring models, benchmarking logic, and fleet decisioning tools that drive capital allocation

• Synthesize financial, operational, market, and strategic data into clear performance narratives for VP-level and cross-functional audiences - in decks, written briefs, and live presentations
• Build automated and AI-powered analytics tools that replace manual reporting workflows - moving store intelligence from periodic spreadsheets to dynamic, queryable systems
• Drive adoption of new tooling and methods across the team - shipping solutions that geo analysts use, iterating based on their feedback
• Partner cross-functionally with Finance, Strategy, and Store Operations to align measurement approaches and ensure performance frameworks reflect business priorities

• 8+ years in performance measurement, commercial…
