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 Stevenage
Located about 28 miles (45 km) directly north of the centre of London, Stevenage was one of the new towns that were planned after the Second World War to provide new lives for those whose homes and livelihoods had been shattered in the Blitz. As with other towns such as Milton Keynes, Hemel Hempstead and Crawley, it was built on an existing village, although the infrastructure had to be upgraded. Stevenage boasted a pedestrianised town centre, the first purpose-built one in the UK, although ironically it was cars that would go on to put Stevenage on the map …
The town is well connected, with the A1(M) skirting its west side and the East Coast Mainline having a stop in the town. Luton airport is just to its west and Stansted is 16 miles (27 km) to the east. There’s a good deal of light industry in Stevenage, mainly concentrated in two industrial estates in its north-east and south-west corners, and these employ a good deal of its population.
The town has produced a number of top-ranking sportspeople in its recent history. Aston Villa, Manchester United and England winger Ashley Young was born there, and golfer Ian Poulter was born just outside the town in the neighbouring town of Hitchen. But in pole position is Lewis Hamilton, the local boy who started his career racing remote controlled cars before rising through the ranks and becoming Formula One world champion in 2008 for McLaren.
As with most of the purpose-built new towns, whose infrastructure was designed in the motoring age, Stevenage has attracted a healthy cross section of industries. With all the raw materials and finished products to move around, and a local population of around 90,000 to serve, Ecommerce Business Analyst positions are not unusual in the town.
