POSITION SUMMARY

We’re looking for an Associate Analytics Director who can bridge sophisticated analytics and client decision-making. This role will be approximately 60% client-facing, partnering directly with clients to understand business questions, shape analytical approaches, present findings, and translate complex model outputs into clear, actionable recommendations.

The right person will bring strong statistical and analytical knowledge, but just as importantly, they’ll be an exceptional communicator. They should be comfortable digging into methodology, pressure-testing whether an analytical approach makes sense, and understanding the nuances behind the numbers. But they also know when to step out of the technical details, identify what matters most, and clearly articulate what the data means, why it matters, and what the client should do next.

You’re someone clients trust with the numbers and trust in the room. You can confidently lead conversations with senior stakeholders, anticipate questions, and turn sophisticated analysis into a compelling business story without hiding behind technical language.

Internally, you’ll help raise the quality of the Analytics team’s work by bringing a strong point of view to methodology, storytelling, and client-ready deliverables. You’ll also take ownership of key client relationships, allowing the Head of Analytics to delegate accounts and analytical workstreams with confidence.

In this role, you will be responsible for the following activities:

• Serve as a day-to-day analytics lead for assigned client relationship

• Translate client business questions into clear analytical approaches

• Lead and support statistical analyses, modeling, measurement, and reporting

• Interpret model outputs and turn them into meaningful business insights

• Present findings and recommendations directly to clients and senior stakeholders

• Explain complex analytical concepts in clear, understandable language

• Partner with strategy, media, account, and other teams to connect analytics to broader client objectives

• Contribute to the continued development of the Analytics team’s capabilities, tools, and approaches

WHAT YOU'LL NEED TO SUCCEED

• 5+ years of experience in analytics, data science, or a related field

• Basic understanding of marketing and business strategies

• Strong understanding of statistics, data modeling, and measurement methodologies

• Experience interpreting outputs from models such as regression, segmentation, forecasting, attribution, propensity, or marketing mix models

• Strong ability to translate complex findings into clear business implications and recommendations

• Experience presenting analytical work directly to clients or senior business stakeholders

• Strong storytelling and presentation skills, particularly with data

• Comfortable managing multiple client priorities and analytical workstreams

• Strong problem-solving skills and intellectual curiosity

• Experience working with tools such as SQL, Python, Excel, SAS or R, Tableau or Studio, or similar analytics platforms

• Nice to haves:

• • Experience in an agency, marketing, media, or consulting environment

  • Experience with marketing measurement, MMM, incrementality, attribution, segmentation, or customer analytics

  • Experience mentoring or managing junior analytical talent

  • Familiarity with modern data environments and visualization platforms
