Commercial Analyst
Competitive Salary
Deeside
We’re plain speaking at Iceland. No flowery business language. No buzzwords. We’re the retailer with a difference. Our Chief Executive Malcolm Walker started the company in 1970 with a capital investment of just £30 and, almost 50 years on, we’re enjoying £2.5 billion of sales – but we never lost that ‘self-made’ feel. So, as a Commercial Analyst here, you won’t have to dress up your insight. You’ll simply tell it like it is.
Believe us, there’ll be plenty to communicate, though. You’ll be analysing product, customer and store data, working with Marketing, Buying and Finance to keep them up to date what’s driving the business. It’s about letting functions know about exciting opportunities they could explore and any associated risks. Plus, you’ll make sure all Marketing programmes are monitored and measured brilliantly, as well as making recommendations for change within the business.
A clear way of communicating complex information is, obviously, essential – and you’ll need to be able to do it at a very senior level. So a good chunk of experience in a similar role is a must, as are SQL and Excel knowledge. You’ll probably have some SAS skills too. We’re looking for someone who can comfortably manage large databases with real accuracy and a solid eye for detail.
This is a business that’s every bit as ambitious as you are. We’re fast moving, embrace innovation and reward excellence. And we’re growing too, opening new stores at a phenomenal rate and creating fantastic career development prospects for our people. Believe us, we’re not over-egging the offer – that’s just not our style – this really is a brilliant place to take your career to new heights.
