  • Collaborative environment: Work with experts in economics, data science, and industry research in a supportive and inclusive setting.
  • Competitive benefits package: Including a competitive salary, pension scheme, and additional perks.

Qualifications

  • Strong analytical skills with experience in data interpretation and data-driven decision-making.
  • Excellent communication abilities, with the confidence to present insights and recommendations to stakeholders.
  • A deep understanding of retail industry trends and sales performance drivers.
  • Proficiency in working with large datasets and conducting detailed analysis.
  • Bachelor's degree (preferably Masters' degree) in Economics, or a related field.
  • Experience using data visualisation tools (such as Power BI or Tableau) is highly desirable.
  • Experience using AI tool and advanced prompt engineering skills is highly desirable.
