Your team: You’ll be joining the Analytics team to help maximise our relationship with 500,000+ subscribers on The Times and The Sunday Times, contributing to continued annual growth. We are at the forefront of innovative approaches to both data and customer experience, evidenced by the team recently winning 4 ‘best use of data’ awards, living up to our vision of driving the business through data.
Your role: You will add value to The Times and The Sunday Times by increasing understanding of our audience and their behaviour, before and after the subscription. You will work closely with teams including the Newsrooms, Product Development, Marketing, User Experience and Technology to provide reporting, analysis and actionable insights to improve decision making in product, content, marketing and price, ultimately contributing to increasing our subscriber base.
Day to day you will:
Analyse subscriber behaviour and audience data across pre and post-subscription journeys to unlock key growth opportunities.
Build, maintain, and present dashboards and reporting suites for performance marketing, CRM, and customer teams using Tableau or Looker Studio.
Collaborate with cross functional stakeholders—including product managers, marketers, and editorial teams—to translate business challenges into structured data analysis.
Interrogate large datasets using SQL within our Google BigQuery data warehouse to evaluate campaign efficacy, pricing strategies, and content engagement.
Identify and implement automation for routine analytics tasks to free up focus for complex business queries.
What we're looking for from you:
Practical capability using SQL to query, manipulate, and process large datasets within a modern data warehouse environment.
Hands-on practice creating clear visual dashboards and reports using tools like Tableau or Looker Studio to convey technical insights to non-technical partners.
Strong business acumen regarding subscription models, including how audience acquisition, retention, and engagement levers drive growth.
Clear communication skills with a focus on influencing stakeholders and adapting complex analytical findings into strategic recommendations.
Proactive problem-solving skills with the ability to navigate fast-paced environments and prioritise supportive analytics requests effectively.
If you think you have what it takes but don’t tick every requirement on the list, please do apply. We recognise that considering someone’s potential as well as their experience is a great way to hire. We want to hear from people who have a passion to learn and develop.
