Are you passionate about using data to drive impactful business decisions?

We’re looking for a Senior Business Data Scientist, Marketing to be part of our Analytics team.

The Team:

Analytics is part of the Strategy & Analytics department, our internal consulting team - they’re the decision support mechanism that connects data & business insights with the rest of the organization. In essence, Analytics is a central function that exists to drive business outcomes in all corners of Jobber’s ecosystem.

The Role:

Reporting to the Senior Manager, Customer Analytics, the Senior Business Data Scientist, Marketing will be a senior analytics partner for one or more of Jobber’s high-priority Customer Analytics domains.

This role will partner closely with business leaders and cross-functional teams to help Jobber better understand customer behaviour, business performance, growth opportunities, and the drivers of long-term customer value.

You will lead high-impact analytical work across the customer journey, including funnel performance, customer segmentation, conversion, engagement, product usage, retention, expansion, operational effectiveness, and long-term value.

• Help define, refine, and govern the KPIs that matter most for the assigned domain or domains, including performance, efficiency, customer quality, customer outcomes, and downstream business impact.

• Translate complex business questions into clear analytical plans, decision frameworks, and actionable recommendations.

• Evaluate the impact of strategic initiatives, operational changes, go-to-market motions, customer programs, product or lifecycle initiatives, and other business priorities.

• Help leaders understand not just what happened, but why it happened, what it means, and what Jobber should do next.

Support decision-making across assigned domains

• Build a strong analytical understanding of the assigned domain or domains, including how different customer segments, behaviours, channels, products, teams, or motions contribute to business performance.

• Identify opportunities to improve growth, efficiency, prioritization, customer experience, customer quality, and long-term value.

• Support strategic planning, forecasting, target setting, business cases, and resource allocation decisions.

• Partner with cross-functional teams and business leaders to improve reporting foundations, metric definitions, funnel or journey visibility, and decision-making workflows.

• Analyze the quality and long-term value of different customer groups, helping Jobber optimize for durable growth rather than short-term volume alone.

• Create reusable frameworks and decision tools that help teams evaluate trade-offs across growth, efficiency, customer outcomes, and operational complexity.

Drive experimentation, impact evaluation, and advanced analytics

• Support experimentation and measurement strategies for strategic initiatives, including A/B tests, pilots, campaigns, lifecycle programs, product initiatives, operational changes, and customer-facing programs.

• Apply advanced analytics techniques such as impact evaluation, scenario analysis, simulation modelling, forecasting, segmentation, and predictive analytics to inform strategic decisions.

• Partner with Data Science on more complex modelling opportunities, such as customer scoring, prioritization, churn or expansion propensity, automation, AI-assisted workflows, or other predictive systems.

• Bring strong judgment to ambiguous measurement problems, including cases where perfect experimentation is not possible and directional decision support is still needed.

• Help stakeholders understand analytical confidence, limitations, trade-offs, and recommended next actions.

Build trusted stakeholder partnerships and executive-ready communication

• Build trusted relationships with senior leaders and cross-functional stakeholders by understanding their goals, shaping analytical roadmaps, and proactively identifying opportunities.

• Communicate insights through clear, compelling, executive-ready narratives that connect analysis to decisions and business outcomes.

• Present findings, recommendations, dashboards, and decision frameworks in business reviews, leadership forums, and cross-functional meetings.

• Make trade-offs visible when stakeholder demand exceeds capacity, helping teams prioritize the work that will have the greatest business impact.

• Collaborate across Analytics & Insights to ensure Customer Analytics work connects cleanly with other analytics teams and pods, BI & Analytics Engineering, and Data Science.

Advance scalable analytics and AI-enabled workflows

• Identify recurring or repeatable analytics work that should become automated, standardized, documented, or moved into self-serve.

• Partner with BI & Analytics Engineering to improve the data foundation, semantic layer, reporting infrastructure, and self-serve capabilities that support Customer Analytics decision-making.

• Use AI-assisted analytics workflows responsibly to accelerate exploration, coding, documentation, QA, and storytelling while maintaining strong ownership of output quality.

• Promote high-quality analytics practices, including clear metric definitions, reproducible workflows, thoughtful QA, documentation, peer review, and data quality stewardship.

• Build scalable assets, dashboards, models, and analytical frameworks that reduce manual reporting and shift analyst time toward higher-judgment work.

• Ensure insights are timely, trusted, actionable, and connected to meaningful business outcomes.

   

Lead as a senior individual contributor, you will:

• Lead one or more important Customer Analytics domains through influence, ownership, and strong judgment.

• Provide mentorship, peer review, and analytical guidance to analysts working in or adjacent to those domains.

• Raise the bar for analytical quality, stakeholder communication, and business impact across the Customer Analytics team.

• Contribute to team-wide best practices around prioritization, documentation, QA, AI-enabled workflows, self-serve, and strategic storytelling.

• Operate as a senior individual contributor who can independently own ambiguous, high-impact work while helping others grow.

To be successful, you should have:

• Expert-level SQL skills, with the ability to work efficiently across complex relational data structures and validate analytical logic with confidence.

• Strong experience in B2B SaaS, marketplace, fintech, revenue, growth, product, customer, or go-to-market analytics.

• Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the ability to build trust, clarify ambiguous asks, influence priorities, and guide leaders toward better decisions.

• A passion for storytelling through data, with the ability to distill complex analyses into simple, influential insights.

• Practical fluency with AI-assisted analytics workflows, with the judgment to use AI responsibly, validate outputs, and own the quality of the final work.

• Intellectual curiosity, creativity, and adaptability in solving open-ended business problems in a fast-moving environment.

• Demonstrated ability to mentor analysts, lead through influence, and operate as a senior individual contributor owning one or more business domains.

• Proven ability to thrive under pressure, navigate ambiguity, and bring structure to complex or competing demands.

• Experience with Python, dbt, Snowflake, Salesforce or other CRM/customer systems, data modelling, and productionized analytics workflows is a strong asset.

You should also:

• Be proactive and resourceful, with a bias for action. You are comfortable navigating ambiguity, solving conceptual problems, corralling resources, and delivering results independently.

• Communicate with clarity and confidence. You actively listen, empathize with stakeholders, and translate complex concepts into simple, actionable insights.

• Care deeply about quality. You value strong analytical foundations, thoughtful QA, documentation, peer review, and reproducible work.

• Be comfortable making trade-offs visible. You know how to focus on the highest-impact work while helping stakeholders understand what must be deprioritized.

• Be excited about the future of analytics. You see AI, automation, and self-serve not just as productivity tools, but as opportunities to redesign how analytics teams create impact.

• Lead without authority. You can influence senior stakeholders, guide peers, mentor analysts, and move important work forward without relying on formal people management authority.

• Thrive in a fast-paced and evolving environment. You adapt quickly, embrace change, and stay focused even when yesterday’s playbook no longer applies.
