Job Summary
You will:
📍Drive end-to-end analysis of revenue and category performance in our non-US markets, highlighting macro shifts and local nuances. 📍Identify and drive deep understanding of growth levers, risk vectors, and user behavior. 📍Support strategic decision-making by creating forward-looking insights — identifying leading indicators, pressure-testing assumptions, and surfacing risks before they materialize. 📍Translate ambiguous business questions into structured analyses that help teams understand the “what” and the “why” behind performance shifts. 📍Build descriptive reporting and insight tools that reflect both country performance and category specifics, including differences in customer behavior, currency, seasonality, and GTM structure. 📍Create regional forecasts and directional models that support headcount planning, sales targeting, and business growth decisions. 📍Incorporate data from CX, Logistics, Finance, and other teams to guide growth opportunities. 📍Become a trusted partner to Sales, Marketing, Account Management, and Category leaders, helping them make smarter, faster decisions based on data. 📍Build dashboards and automated reporting to support weekly and monthly business reviews, while driving clarity on KPIs that actually reflect performance. 📍Team members in this role are required to be within commuting distance of our London, UK hub.
About You
📍We’re looking for an experienced, globally-minded Data Scientist who knows how to use analytics to drive business clarity, especially in fast-growing, multi-market environments. You understand that what works in one country may not work in another, and you bring curiosity and rigor to helping the business navigate that complexity. You understand the whole business thinking about how to grow revenue and categories but how also behind the scenes product and commerce implications impact different markets.
You thrive in cross-functional, multicultural environments and enjoy tackling open-ended problems with structured thinking and sharp analysis. You love building tools that help people take action, not just crunching numbers in isolation. Your work influences how we scale, where we grow, and how we define success in diverse markets.
