Job Summary
As SQUIRE continues to grow so does the need for clean well-defined and trustworthy data on how the business is performing. As the Director Analytics & Insights you will define the standards taxonomies and requirements in our core source systems needed for data to flow and report information properly for the business. Based on the data captured you will consolidate and uncover the drivers behind churn retention and conversion then apply that same rigor to product telemetry and marketing analytics and bring those insights directly to the leaders who can act on them.
