Location: Remote (applicants must currently reside in same country as a FINN Partners office location)
Employment: Full-time, direct hire
Reports to: Global Intelligence Manager / Senior Analyst of the FINN Partners Global Intelligence Lab
Job Summary
The Junior Public Relations Intelligence Analyst (Social Listening and Data Analysis) position provides high-quality, hands-on data analysis and social listening support across Global Intelligence Lab projects within FINN Partners. The Junior Analyst acts as a core data engine for the Lab, and focuses on data retrieval, cleaning, tagging, analysis and synthesis, with a strong emphasis on social listening platforms such as Meltwater, Talkwalker, Brandwatch and Sprinklr. This role is primarily executional and analytical, and will extract, structure, and interpret large volumes of data via social listening, media intelligence and data analysis, and then craft compelling narratives, write copy, and create analytical insight briefs. This role supports flagship offerings such as always-on monitoring (Pulse), competitive intelligence (Compete) and trend analysis. This position is not client-facing, so presentation experience and client-facing experience are not required for this role. Because this role reports to the department’s senior leadership, such close collaboration provides the Jr. Analyst with visibility and learning opportunities beyond that of a typical junior analyst level role. The Jr. Analyst will work closely with our Global Intelligence colleagues and, periodically with our account teams.
We are looking for a hands-on, analytically curious data Jr. Analyst who enjoys working deeply with social listening and intelligence platforms and wants the freedom to focus on what they do best: finding patterns, building robust datasets and turning noise into insight. This job opportunity will permit you to join a small, evolving intelligence team where your work genuinely shapes outputs, and where you will have exposure to a wide range of FINN Partners’ global clients, business sectors, and issues, and where you have opportunity to improve, challenge and redesign frameworks, dashboards, and methodologies, while working within our team culture that actively encourages suggestions, experimentation and new ways of working. You will be trusted with responsibility, encouraged to challenge how things are done, and given space to grow your technical expertise in a supportive, senior-led environment.

What We Do
1400+ People. 3 Continents. 33 Offices. We are a global integrated marketing agency transforming and inspiring the world of communications every day. A LETTER FROM PETER FINN: DECEMBER 2011. FINN PARTNERS WAS BORN. After 11 years serving as co-CEO of an historic agency that carried my father’s name— and mine!—and after 30+ years of working at the firm, I wanted to build something different, bold, meaningful and amazing for clients, our colleagues and the community. "Amazing" was, and is, for me an important word. I imagined we could be "amazing" every day, knowing this is a goal not always achieved but always pursued. A place where talented people could gather and do big things for clients as well as make a difference to the communities important to us. WE LAUNCHED WITH A GROUP WHO SHARED A VISION. This was to be a "new" agency model, driven by a collaborative spirit. We asked, "Can we bind our 60-year legacy to the energy and speed of today’s hi-tech world?" We had $24 million in fees at our founding. Today, we have more than $85 million in fees, over 700 colleagues and 18 offices across three continents. Our Founding Managing Partners, highly respected colleagues who took the leap with me from our former agency, have been joined by the principals of other great agencies that became Finn Partner companies. So many other talented individuals are with us, too, intrigued by the idea of doing amazing things in an amazing workplace community. WE’VE MADE OUR MARK QUICKLY. Finn Partners has been named “Best New Agency,” “Best PR Agency to Work for in North America” and“Best Mid-Sized Agency of the Year” three times. Now, we’re one of the world’s largest agencies. WE ARE A YOUNG AGENCY. We share the genes of a respected agency that pioneered today’s integrated communications. But we are not them. We are unique. We are ourselves. We are focused on the future, building that future during each amazing day.
