Marketing Data Analyst

Want to see your data insights make the cover of BBC, Bloomberg, NYT, TechCrunch?

Become a Marketing Data Analyst at project44!

Why project44?

Our mission is to usher in a new era of trust and predictability to transportation and logistics, but there’s still a lot of work to be done. The industry is massive, as is the opportunity. We’re looking for bright, ambitious individuals to join our growing global team and help us enable a more productive and successful world. We’re changing the way the world ships, and we’re looking for you to help us get there!

Our data analysts have access to the data that tells the story of some of the largest supply chain disruptions that have been making the news headlines over the last few months. COVID-19’s impact on global trade? We can see that in our data. What were the downstream impacts of the Suez Canal blockage? We can see that in our data. How does the increased number of extreme weather events impact global shipping? We can see that in our data.

What Data Marketing Analysts Do Here

At the end of the day, project44 is a data company and data tell stories. Project44 has grown to a $1B+ valuation by making supply chain and logistics datasets available and visible to the people who need them. The next step is to extract insights from that data – and that’s where you will come in.

We use all sorts of data (geospatial, time-series, etc…) to build models that predict the route that a shipment might take, estimate the time a truck/train/ship might arrive at its destination, and ultimately model the behavior of every "link" in the global supply "chain". Our Data Marketing Analysts collaborate with marketing, PR, engineers, product owners, and most importantly with one another to contribute insights and best practices to all parts of the business.

Typical day-to-day tasks for a data analyst might include:

• Analyze marketing data for the marketing team as a base for problem-solving and to provide insight into specific incidents or market trends
• Research and evaluate 3rd party data sets, new analytical methodologies, approaches, and solutions
• Collaborate with other marketing and data teams to analyze behavior of global transportation networks and supply chains
• Build tools and document processes to enable other data analysts to scale their knowledge and increase impact
• Interpret and communicate analytic results to analytical and non-analytical business partners and decision makers
• Write queries (SQL) to grab the right set of data to solve their problem
