Ecommerce Business Analyst
Selling online is a complex business, with the whole range of marketing, digital optimisation, customer-facing websites and apps, warehousing, logistics and security to factor in. For this to work, the business needs to be able to have a bird’s eye view of how it is run, in what direction it is going and how to influence its future for the better. The business analyst in ecommerce will oversee this process, working with the board, data analysts and the digital teams to ensure the company’s strategic goals are on course.
The ecommerce business analyst will look in depth at the whole user experience and how it affects customer satisfaction and where it puts stress on the business. They will then draw conclusions, backed up by solid data, as to where the business can be improved. Their recommendations, alongside other sales and growth strategies, will play a key role in steering future decisions and KPIs.
The skills required
Ecommerce business analyst jobs usually demand experience in working with customer-facing retail businesses. Successful applicants must have a firm grip on how ecommerce works and how UX and fulfillment satisfaction can make or break an online retailer.
You’ll understand how ecommerce projects are planned and implemented, and will be able to work alongside technical development teams, sales and marketing specialists and the key decision makers, and report findings and solutions effectively.
Ecommerce Business Analyst Jobs in Shrewsbury
Shrewsbury has always been a market town, as shown by its distinctive roads to Telford, Whitchurch, Oswestry, Welshpool and Ludlow. During the Industrial Revolution the town was linked by Shrewsbury Canal, which linked to the Shropshire canal, but again, it was used more to bring goods in than to take them out – the town remained largely unindustrialised. Railways also came in the nineteenth century, making Wolverhampton and the North and South of England easily accessible.
The town does have a thriving light industry scene, and has two important business parks, Shrewsbury Business Park and the Battlefield Enterprise Park. Sometimes Ecommerce Business Analyst or similar jobs turn up in Shrewsbury or the surrounding area simply because it’s a relatively isolated town that has a large demand for goods to be brought in.
Although Shrewsbury is the county town of Shropshire, it is actually only the second largest in the county (after Telford), but still has a sizeable population of around 100,000. As it is so close to the Welsh border, it acts as a magnet for many of the Welsh towns and villages along the country’s eastern side as well as those in the surrounding area. This has led to Shrewsbury becoming a very healthy shopping town; it is also a very pleasant place to live, with much of its medieval town centre still standing. Shrewsbury does have one very notable claim to fame, too – it was the birthplace of Charles Darwin.
