Description
Blue Nile is the largest online retailer of certified diamonds, engagement rings and fine jewelry. Our standards are among the highest of all jewelers. We provide a superior customer experience, extraordinary value and industry leading product quality and style. We obsess about our customers and are passionate about providing each customer with an amazing experience.
Inside of Blue Nile, we are working to push the envelope in terms of using data to drive business decisions across our Merchandising, Marketing, Pricing and other functions. There are tons of insights to be found in our ~20 years of data, just waiting to be put into practice.
The central Analytics Team at Blue Nile has a mix of two missions: 1) provide clean and timely data and reporting to unlock best-in-class analytics in the rest of the organization, and 2) tackle really, really hard analytical challenges, for example: What is our price elasticity? Given the traffic and spend over the past few weeks, what should next week's revenue be? What impact did marketing have last week? This role is more concerned with the latter of those two missions.
This Analyst role will initially report to the VP of Analytics. You will provide best-in-class service to our internal customers, and help translate business questions into hypotheses, into analyses, into insights, into recommendations, into results and measurement. You will work across the organization and establish relationships and influence with a wide range of stakeholders at all levels of the organization, and are an analytical, data driven, motivated and decisive thought leader.
