WHO ARE YOU

  • You think in opportunities not dashboards. Youve built analyses that changed how a business allocated resources set targets or entered markets - and youve presented those recommendations to senior leaders in language they can act on.
  • You lead by doing. With 5-7 years of experience in business analytics or strategy analytics youve managed and inspired people set priorities and raised the bar for output quality - but when the most important analysis of the quarter needs to happen youre comfortable owning it yourself.
  • Youre fluent in the language of business. SQL and data modeling are second nature but so is walking into a room of senior leaders and making a clear recommendation they can act on.
  • You build bridges that dont exist yet. Youve created collaboration patterns between teams - analysts category management marketing finance product - that werent there before. You dont wait for someone to define the process; you define it.
  • SQL and data modeling are second nature and youre comfortable with tools like dbt and Tableau. You have strong data-backed opinions loosely held - you push for what the data tells you but listen when others bring context you dont have. You actively use AI tools to accelerate your own and your teams analytical output.
  • You hold a degree in a quantitative field such as Data Science Statistics Economics or Business. Programming skills in Python or R are appreciated but not essential.


WHATS THE JOB LIKE

What your days will look like

Your primary mission is to make sure Recommerce knows where its biggest opportunities are - and acts on them.

Youll own end-to-end strategic analyses: from forming the hypothesis through data collection and modeling to executive-ready recommendations and implementation follow-up. This means identifying growth opportunities across markets categories and business levers - and working with Strategy Finance and the Recommerce leadership team to translate those into trimester OKRs and investment decisions.

Youll build models and frameworks that assess business performance forecast growth and support capital allocation. You wont just deliver findings - youll drive the conversation about what we should do differently and follow up to make sure it happens.

Youll lead and set the direction of the business analyst team - prioritizing work coaching on craft and holding a high bar for the quality of what we deliver.

But this role goes beyond your direct team. Youll establish and drive collaboration patterns across analysts product teams and commercial functions (Marketing Category Management Finance Strategy). Some of these patterns exist today. Many dont. Youll need to build them - defining how we share context align on priorities and turn scattered analytical efforts into a coherent decision making.

Youll manage the analytical backlog with a clear point of view on what matters most - pushing back on low-impact requests and pulling forward work the business hasnt asked for yet.

This is a hands-on role. When the critical analysis of the quarter needs to happen you dont just delegate it - you lead it or do it yourself.

Youll present regularly to the Recommerce leadership team and cross-functional stakeholders making recommendations that are clear grounded and easy to act on. Youll promote a culture where analysis drives decisions - not just informs them - by embedding analytical thinking into planning processes business reviews and strategic discussions.

The challenge to turn into an opportunity

Recommerce operates across multiple Nordic markets with different dynamics and maturity levels. The analytical function is growing and the expectations are high - but the structures and collaboration patterns to meet those expectations are still being built. This means you wont inherit a well-oiled machine. Youll build one.

If that sounds like a problem this isnt the role for you. If it sounds like exactly the kind of challenge you want keep reading.

What success looks like

After 6 months you will have:

  • Mapped the key growth levers across markets and established a shared analytical agenda with Strategy and Finance
  • Put in place a clear prioritization framework for business analyst work - so the team spends time on what matters most
  • Led at least one high-impact strategic analysis end-to-end from hypothesis to recommendation to action

After 12 months you will have:

  • Delivered strategic analyses that directly shaped trimester OKRs or investment priorities
  • Built repeatable collaboration structures between analysts commercial teams and finance across markets
  • Raised the bar for analytical output quality and made the business analyst function a team that leadership actively turns to - not just when they need a number but when they need a direction
