• In coordination with the commercial team on developing demand forecasting models combining internal sales data with external data (seasonality, macroeconomic trends, weather, events).

• Continuously refine and validate models to enhance decision-making quality.

• Analyse the full value chain: sourcing, logistics, fulfillment, and returns.
• Provide insights into process efficiency, lead times, and cost optimisation.
• Enable leadership to make informed decisions on pricing, promotions, and assortment strategy.
• Support finance with margin and profitability analytics across sales channels.

• Create analytics frameworks for customer service performance, NPS, and satisfaction tracking.
• Monitor omni-channel customer engagement (CRM campaigns, loyalty programs, retail events).
• Support marketing funnel optimization with data-backed insights.

• Strong command of SQL and experience with data warehouses (Snowflake, Big Query, Azure).
• Programming skills in Python or R for analysis, modelling, and machine learning.
• Experience with ETL/ELT pipelines and data integration tools (dbt, Fivetran, Airflow, Celigo).
• Proficiency with visualisation tools (Power BI, Tableau, Looker).
• Familiarity with cloud environments (Azure, AWS, GCP).
• Understanding of APIs and integrations across ERP, CRM, PLM, POS, and e-commerce platforms.

• Expertise in forecasting, predictive modelling, and machine learning.
• Strong statistical background with ability to apply regression, clustering, time-series analysis, A/B testing.
• Deep knowledge of retail and e-commerce KPIs.
• Ability to create omni-channel analytics frameworks for unified reporting.

• Familiarity with POS data structures and retail analytics metrics (traffic counters, sales density).
• Knowledge of inventory optimization across multiple distribution channels.
• Understanding of customer behavior analytics both online (clickstream, funnels) and in-store (footfall, dwell time).
• Awareness of sustainability metrics relevant for premium fashion (returns rates, circularity, DPP readiness).

• 3–6 years of experience in data/business analytics, ideally in fashion, retail, or consumer goods.
• Hands-on problem solver with strong analytical rigor.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced transformation environment.
• Strong communication skills — able to translate technical findings into business impact.
• Curious, proactive, and passionate about creating new capabilities.
