Who We Are
The global Business Trends and Strategy Group acts as a centralized business analysis team. We are experts on the business drivers that determine each of our global market's business health (including, but not limited to, traffic, revenue, profit and operational metrics). We build tools, processes and partnerships both to quickly triage blockers to growth and push on the highest impact levers to amplify business performance. We are focused on building and evolving the right set of reporting and communications to continually strengthen, improve, and drive site conversion and customer traffic. We will do this by focusing the executive team on the right drivers of success, closely tracking performance against these drivers, and partnering to help drive roadmaps to focus on highest impact opportunities.
What You'll Do
- You are an extension of the Executive team and part of the broader Business Trends Team for Wayfair's European markets, owning and monitoring overall business performance metrics.
- You own recurring executive performance reviews and updates (incl. with senior C-suite executives). You drive the agenda, create and contribute to executive communications and readouts, and ensure the executive team is fully up to date on business performance.

- You lead hands on business investigation and issue resolution, coordinating the broader team and running analyses yourself
- You dig deep into Wayfair data to find the drivers and root causes of business performance as well as proactive opportunities. You derive action plans/business initiatives from your insights
- You connect to all parts of the business to develop an understanding of business drivers and consolidate them across all functions.
What You'll Need
