Analyst, Strategy & Commercial

As an Analyst in the Strategy & Commercial team, you will take ownership of the workstream and see it through — from an ambiguous question to an answer someone can act on. You will work alongside vertical commercial leads, pricing specialists, revenue operations, and the sales organization on the questions that determine how the business grows: what our customers are worth, why they stay or leave, what we should charge, and where the next increment of revenue will come from.

Your role goes beyond producing analysis on request. You will combine data analysis and research, conduct conversations with the people closest to the market, and generate insights. You are expected to form a view and to defend it.

You will build the analysis and provide recommendations with quantified impact by extracting and cleaning the data, constructing the model, testing the logic and standing behind the numbers. Your role will identify and unlock new revenue streams across the company’s marketplaces by analyzing customer value, retention, and pricing levers.

Responsibilities

• Take full ownership of strategic workstreams, transforming ambiguous business challenges into clear, actionable solutions that drive revenue.
• Extract and clean complex datasets, construct rigorous financial and operational models, and test business logic to quantify the impact of strategic recommendations.
• Combine quantitative data analysis, qualitative market research, and conversations with frontline teams to identify where the next increment of revenue will come from.
• Analyze and provide actionable recommendations on critical business drivers, including pricing structures, product packaging, customer acquisition, retention (churn), and sales performance.
• Formulate strong, data-backed perspectives on market dynamics (e.g., what customers are worth, why they stay or leave, what we should charge). Present these insights confidently to leadership and be prepared to defend the numbers.
• Partner directly with vertical commercial leaders, pricing specialists, Revenue Operations, and the sales organization to ensure strategic recommendations are practically executed in the market.
• You will be coached directly by your vertical or function lead, with structured feedback against a published competency framework covering ownership, first-principles thinking, analytical rigor, commercial judgment, and influence.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in a quantitative, business, economics, or engineering discipline.
• Advanced degrees or certifications in analytics or revenue management are a plus.
• Minimum 4 years of relevant experience.
• Experience in classifieds, e-commerce, or digital marketplaces is a plus.
• Proficient in rational decision-making based on data, facts, and logical reasoning, and explicit about the assumptions behind a conclusion.
• Ability to create work-product-focused outputs, which may include Excel models, dashboards, PowerPoint, or written recommendations.
• Comfortable working with large and imperfect data sets. Advanced Excel is expected; SQL and a business intelligence tool such as Tableau, Power BI, or Looker are beneficial.
• Excellent organization skills, including the ability to initiate work independently and see it through to completion.
• Strong verbal and written communication, with the ability to adjust style to different perspectives and levels of seniority.
• Exceptional time management in a complex and largely autonomous working environment.
• Strong quantitative and problem-solving skills.
• High level of accuracy in analysis and reporting, with a structured approach to problem-solving.
• Curiosity about how a business makes money, and the instinct to test an assumption before building on it.

• Highly motivated, professional, with the ability to work both independently and cooperatively in a diverse group.
