SEM Analyst

Your new adventure:

Reporting & In-depth Analysis (70%):
• Build and maintain SEM performance dashboards on top of our existing data infrastructure - clear, reliable and built for both at-a-glance reporting and deep troubleshooting

• Go beyond platform-native reporting by joining ad platform data with internal metrics to connect paid search activity to real downstream business outcomes
• Act as the data requirements translator between the SEM team and Marketing Analytics - defining what we need, why we need it, and how it should be structured so that the wider team can eventually self-serve using AI tools
• Turn analytical findings into sharp, actionable recommendations the team can act on with confidence
