Develop and maintain automated reporting, dashboards, and data products that give stakeholders timely, reliable visibility into the metrics that matter most.
Champion a data-driven culture by helping stakeholders understand not only what is happening in the business, but why it is happening and what actions the data supports.

Partner with senior management to develop and refine business and media strategies based on data-driven insights.
Help establish analytics best practices, standards, and methodologies across the organization, including approaches to measurement, experimentation, attribution, and media effectiveness.
Support the development of sports analytics capabilities and identify new opportunities to leverage data across The Post's sports business and editorial operations.
Translate complex analytical findings into clear, compelling narratives that can be understood and acted upon by both technical and non-technical audiences.
Operate effectively in an ambiguous, fast-paced environment, where priorities can shift quickly and new analytical questions emerge regularly.
Balance longer-term strategic initiatives with urgent, high-priority requests, maintaining quality and accuracy while delivering against tight newsroom and business timelines.
Identify opportunities to proactively use data to answer questions stakeholders may not yet be asking and surface insights that can create meaningful business impact.
