• Create and maintain best‑in‑class visualizations (charts, dashboards, heatmaps, presentations) using Power BI, Excel, PowerPoint and other tools. 

• Ensure consistency, accuracy, and quality across dashboards, presentations, and reporting outputs; identify and address gaps for improvement. 

• Develop data solutions for emerging platforms, leveraging AI tools and refine existing reporting to improve efficiency and clarity. 

• Build, manage, and optimize Excel dashboards, integrating feedback to enhance usability and decision‑support. 

• Continuously improve analysis, processes, and deliverables to surface insights more effectively. 

• Deliver clear, accurate analysis by understanding business needs, incorporating feedback, and presenting findings confidently. 

  

Stakeholder Engagement & Communication: 

• Manage stakeholder communications, ensuring satisfaction and solution-oriented service. 

• Use data to support recommendations, measure effectiveness, and drive continuous improvement in engagement strategies. 

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify use cases, scale reporting processes efficiently, and uncover opportunities for automation. 

 

  What you’ll need :  

• Bachelor’s degree required; a master’s in data science, Business Analytics, or a related field is a plus.  

• 3–5 years of relevant experience, ideally supporting complex communications or analytics programs. 

• Advanced skills in Excel and PowerPoint for data manipulation and presentation.
