Data Analyst for Retail Reports and Insights
Skills Required
Description
Turning numbers into actionable retail insights takes both technical skill and business awareness. The Data Analyst for Retail Reports and Insights will focus on collecting, transforming, and visualizing data to help management make better, data-driven decisions. Every report will aim to reveal patterns that drive sales growth, inventory optimization, and customer engagement improvements.
You’ll work with Power BI, SQL, and Excel to build dashboards that track KPIs such as revenue, conversion rates, and product performance. Each visualization should communicate insights clearly — highlighting trends that might otherwise go unnoticed in raw datasets.
Data cleaning and transformation will be an ongoing task. You’ll manage ETL processes, ensuring data integrity across multiple sources like POS systems, CRM platforms, and supplier databases. This will ensure accuracy in every analysis and consistency across reports.
Core tasks include:
– Designing Power BI dashboards tailored for sales and operations teams.
– Writing optimized SQL queries for fast, efficient data retrieval.
– Creating DAX measures for advanced calculations and KPIs.
– Automating data refresh processes and maintaining model efficiency.
Collaboration with finance, marketing, and inventory teams will be frequent. You’ll translate data findings into meaningful actions — whether identifying underperforming SKUs or tracking customer purchasing habits over time.
