Senior Data Analyst

Data incidents affect millions of individuals each year, and organizations trust ACTFORE to investigate them quickly, accurately, and thoroughly. Senior Data Analysts set the standard for that work, delivering fast, accurate outputs themselves while raising the bar for team output accuracy across the team they lead.

As a Senior Data Analyst, you lead by doing. You'll coach and mentor analysts on your team, coordinate day-to-day workflow, and audit output for accuracy, all while staying hands-on yourself, manually extracting and organizing sensitive data alongside your team. This is a lead role, so you'll be the person your team looks to for guidance, quality, and pace.

The Senior Data Analyst combines hands-on extraction work with team leadership auditing documents for sensitive data with the same speed and precision expected of every analyst, while coaching, mentoring, and coordinating the day-to-day workflow of the analysts on their team. You'll be the first line of quality control, catching errors before they reach the client, and the person newer analysts turn to for guidance on pace and process.
