Data Analyst - Food Performance

The role

We’re looking for a Food Performance & Nutrition Data Analyst to lead advanced analytics at the intersection of product, pet satisfaction, and customer behaviour. You’ll be instrumental in building new data pipelines, defining metrics, and applying statistical rigor to uncover insights that drive better food experiences for both pets and customers.

Your Responsibilities:

• Design and own a food performance framework, incorporating both customer-reported and behaviourally observed signals which controls for multiple confounding variables
• Lead the setup of performance monitoring and reporting for food acceptance and product-related behaviour signals (e.g. cancellations, flavour switch rates, repeat rates).
• Support product and range teams in the testing and launch of new products, leading on needs assessment, feasibility analysis, nutritional impact evaluation, and defining required changes through to launch and successful adoption.
• Build upon our existing simulation and measurement tooling for our Tailoring Technology workstream, including frameworks to evaluate efficacy of our recommendations and optimisation for the best customer outcomes once launched.
• Conduct analysis on the impacts of evolving our product recommendations — identifying behavioural drivers of cancellation, satisfaction shifts, and long-term retention effects.
• Collaborate on SKU remapping, product catalogue development, and nutrition data integrations, ensuring data readiness and analytic coverage across initiatives by building and updating pipelines and rigorously testing data validity
• Ingest and leverage high-dimensional nutrition and NIR machine data from our QC processes to evaluate manufacturing tolerances, batch variability, and their related impact on customer satisfaction
• Deliver clear, actionable and impactful insights and documentation for leadership and cross-functional stakeholders with varied levels of technical knowledge

The skills you’ll bring:

• 2–4+ years of experience in data analytics, or applied product analytics
• Strong communication skills – able to translate technical insight into clear business recommendations
• Strong proficiency in SQL (Python desirable as well), and experience working with complex, messy, real-world data from multiple sources
• Hands-on experience with metric design and behavior-based performance measurement
• Highly competent time management, with the ability to source, generate, prioritise and deliver on the most impactful work collaboratively with key partners
• Skilled in data visualisation and storytelling using BI tools (e.g. ThoughtSpot, Looker, Tableau)
• Experience working with and influencing cross-functionally (Product, Proposition, Engineering, R&D, and Data teams)

Even better if you have:

• Familiarity with pet nutrition, foodtech, or manufacturing data (e.g. NIR, QC workflows)
• Demonstrated ability to ingest and model high-dimensional manufacturing or QC datasets
• Experience designing and analysing experiments and/or simulations for product feature impact
• Exposure to using survey data and leveraging unstructured customer feedback for analytics.
• Understanding of DTC or subscription business models and customer lifecycle analytics

• 9/10 day working fortnight to enhance your wellbeing without a reduction in pay and leave allowance - this totals over 20 additional days off in 2025!
• Optional 5 days unpaid leave and 1 paid volunteer day each year
• When you need a change of scenery, you can work from abroad 2 weeks every 6 months
