Job Title: Product Analyst
Your new role
We’re looking for a commercially minded Product Analyst with experience in product analytics, data analysis, or a similar insight-led role, ideally gained in a fast-paced, data-driven business.
As a Product Analyst in Global’s DAX Product team, you’ll help squads make better product decisions through data discovery, insight generation, requirements gathering, and structured analytical problem-solving. You’ll report to the Product Lead and work closely with the Senior Product Owner in the DAX Data Engineering squad, alongside other Product Owners, Engineers, Operations, and commercial stakeholders across DAX.
This is not a purely reporting-led role. You’ll turn ambiguous questions into clear analysis, investigate trends and anomalies in product, operational, and commercial data, and provide evidence-based recommendations that inform product discovery, prioritisation, strategy, and OKRs.
It’s a great opportunity for someone who is naturally curious, commercially aware, and excited by using data to influence product direction across a complex and evolving ad-tech landscape.
Key Responsibilities
Product-led data discovery and insight generation (50%)
You will work across DAX squads to investigate product, operational, and commercial data in order to uncover insights, identify trends, and support decision-making. You’ll help teams answer key questions through structured analysis, benchmarking, and exploratory data work, including investigating anomalies and patterns in DAX data such as spotting trends, delivery behaviours, or product performance shifts.
Analytical solution design (25%)
You will partner with Product Owners, Engineers, and Stakeholders to understand business needs to then build dashboards or analytical outputs that support product discovery, trouble-shooting, prioritisation, and ongoing performance monitoring.
Supporting product strategy, OKRs, and continuous improvement (25%)
You will contribute to OKR setting and product planning by providing robust data, benchmarks, and performance insights. You’ll support squads in measuring success, understanding opportunities, and improving how they use data in decision-making. You’ll also help improve analytical ways of working, data quality awareness, and reporting consistency across the DAX product organisation.
What You’ll Love About This Role
Think Big: Help shape how data informs product thinking across DAX, bringing a strategic mindset to product discovery and decision-making.
Own It: Take responsibility for turning ambiguous questions into clear analysis, actionable insight, and meaningful recommendations.
Keep it Simple: Use data to cut through complexity, focusing on the metrics and insights that matter most.
Better Together: Collaborate across squads, disciplines, and stakeholders to help build a stronger, more insight-led product organisation.
What Success Looks Like
In your first few months, you’ll have:
• Built a strong understanding of the DAX product landscape, including how different squads operate and where data can most effectively support product discovery and decision-making
• Developed a good working relationships across the DAX technology teams (e.g. engineers, product owners, design, etc.) and key stakeholders outside technology
• Become familiar with the main datasets, dashboards, workflows, and systems used across the DAX environment
