• Financial Impact Modeling: Collaborate alongside corporate Finance cells to model the margin and revenue impact of potential strategies, translating trade-offs into well-evidenced business proposals.
• Statistical & LLM Interpretation: Apply advanced statistical methods to draw defensible analytical conclusions, leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) within real data workflows to process unstructured merchant files.
• Executive Narrative & Advisory: Package intricate technical and commercial insights into clear, scannable data-driven narratives, presenting recommendations directly to senior stakeholders and the executive team.
• Operating Cadence Stress-Testing: Act as a trusted thought partner to business vertical heads, helping them frame cross-departmental bottlenecks and stress-test core growth assumptions.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• A minimum of 5-7+ years of proven, successful professional history operating inside a Senior Data Analyst, Strategic Insights Principal, Revenue Operations Specialist, or closely matching tech-stack analytics capacity within a high-growth tech environment.
• Expert Database Querying Fluency: Master-level production command writing complex, performant SQL queries and managing data parameters across distributed arrays.
• Grounded mastery applying statistical methods and data science models to validate business hypotheses and eliminate reporting drift.
• Proven baseline experience integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) or generative automation scripts directly into actual data transformation and unstructured analysis workflows.
• Outstanding written, verbal, and presentation communication strengths in English, with an established capability to transform complex telemetry charts into clear business stories for a finance-literate executive suite.
• Location Context: Position operates under remote guidelines open exclusively to qualified analytical strategists residing permanently within the United Kingdom, Ireland, or Portugal .

Preferred Strategic Indicators (Nice to Have)

• Prior experience or structural data domain familiarity operating directly within the Fintech, digital payments, Merchant of Record (MoR), or financial services sectors.
• Professional background rooted in management consulting, corporate strategy, or entrepreneurial B2B SaaS analytics modeling (scaling around $20M to $100M+ ARR boundaries).
• Familiarity with data pipeline tooling or visualization architectures such as Tableau, Looker, dbt, or basic data manipulation scripts inside Python.

What We Offer

• Top-Tier European Digital Infrastructure Package: A highly competitive annual base salary calibrated precisely to your data systems and insights history, supplemented by global reward channels, corporate perks, and a flexible remote workspace blueprint.
• 100% workspace infrastructure independence from your home office setup based anywhere inside the UK, Ireland, or Portugal, avoiding the pain of corporate commutes.
