Junior Data Analyst

Junior Data Analyst (Remote)The Role

XCM is looking for a Junior Data Analyst to join our growing team.

We’re after someone with SQL experience, strong Excel skills, and a genuine passion for turning data into insight. You’ll be working across exciting sectors including Retail, Sports, and Gaming, supporting some of the biggest brands in the industry with fast, accurate, and commercially valuable analysis.

This is a fully remote role, but you won’t be left to figure things out alone. You’ll have a strong support network around you, including Lead Analysts and a Client Team who work closely together day-to-day. We’re looking for someone who enjoys working independently, takes ownership, and can manage their workload — while also thriving as part of a collaborative team.

If you love problem solving, enjoy working at pace, and want to build your career in analytics, this role is for you.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Supporting Lead Analysts and the Client Team with quick-turnaround insight requests and campaign reporting
• Using SQL to pull, validate, and explore large datasets
• Supporting the creation of clear, visual insights using XCM’s Horizon BI tool, helping turn analysis into easy-to-digest reporting for internal teams and clients
• Measuring performance and ROI across online and offline marketing activity
• Analysing customer and campaign behaviour across channels including:
• Email
• Web & onsite behaviour
• SMS
• Direct mail
• Social & engagement trends
• Reporting on KPIs such as leads, conversion rate, traffic, and engagement
• Producing clear insight and recommendations that help clients improve performance
• Supporting BAU reporting schedules as well as ad-hoc analysis requests
• Helping deliver larger projects and more complex analytical work as you grow in the role
• Presenting findings confidently to colleagues (and occasionally clients)

What We’re Looking For

• SQL experience is essential (you’ll use it regularly)
• Excel skills are important — confident working with formulas, pivot tables, and large datasets
• A natural interest in data, customer behaviour, and performance insight
• Comfortable working at pace and juggling multiple priorities
• Curious, proactive, organised, and methodical
• Confident knowing when to ask for help — and keen to learn quickly
• Able to explain insights clearly to non-technical stakeholders
• Enjoys remote working, while staying connected and engaged with the wider team

Bonus (nice to have)

• Experience with BI / visualisation tools — Superset would be a big advantage
• Exposure to marketing, CRM, ecommerce, or customer analytics datasets
• Experience working with big data environments or data warehouses

Why XCM?

• Fully remote role with a strong support network
• Exposure to high-profile clients and exciting sectors
• Fast learning curve, varied workload, and real progression opportunities
• A team that values collaboration, quality, and continuous improvement
