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 Analytics Team at Blue Nile has a mix of two roles: 1) provide clean and timely data and reporting to unlock best-in-class analytics in the rest of the organization, and 2) tackle difficult 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.

The Senior Manager of Analytics will 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 hopefully enjoy digging around in the data yourself, because that will certainly be required. 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 with an appropriate perspective on the big picture.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field (computer science, economics, statistics, applied math, etc.)
• 8+ years full time experience in an analytically based function (e.g. quantitative marketing, analytics)
• Strategic mindset with the ability to think broadly, refine questions and develop analytical frameworks that drive to key insights and business recommendations
• Strong sense of pragmatism and business judgment to ensure insights and recommendations lead to execution, action and impact
• Experience with SQL and business intelligence tools (Tableau preferred) is required
• Experience with data storage, tools and technologies is required
