Arbetsbeskrivning

Who you are

We develop the tools that people love to use when needing IKEA support. Now we are looking for Data Analysts to join us in optimizing how we enable customers to help themselves and how we make their contact with IKEA as smooth and efficient as possible. The Digital area of RCMP in IKEA works with customers before, during and after the purchase and our mission is to make this process as simple as possible.

Our diverse and global team within Data & Analytics is growing even more and we would love to talk with you, if you recognize yourself in some of the following:

• Consider data to be the starting point for solving (almost) any problem

• Is a creative person who can combine multiple data sources to answer one question that neither of the data sources can answer on their own

• Enjoy figuring out how to use your knowledge of SQL, Python or something else to derive insights from large datasets to solve business problems

• Have a background in analytics, computer science, engineering or equivalent (at least BS or equivalent)

• Loves to visualize data and to tell compelling data stories to non-technical stakeholders

• Some experience in building visualizations in PowerBI (or similar) that are easy to understand and hard to misinterpret

• Is used to working with stakeholders with less technical knowledge and have the ability to translate their needs into formal requirements • Able to perform work with a balanced trade-off between care and speed, and to understand that rapid insights may come at an initial cost of rigorousness

This is our wish list! If you don’t recognize yourself in all these points, you might still be an excellent candidate for the role. We like to think long term and invest in people’s development together with us.

The IKEA culture and values are very much a part of our business and day to day work life. For you to thrive and grow with IKEA it’s important for us that you share our values! You can read more regarding our values and life at IKEA on our website www.ikea.com.

What you'll be doing day to day

You’ll be part of the transformation of IKEA into a more data-driven company by supporting our product teams with insights from data that reinforce, alter, or impact present and future decisions on business and product strategy, leading to a better experience for our customers.

For example, we are doing analytics to answer questions like:

• Which contact channel is the most efficient? Why is it the most efficient? How can we get the other channels to the same efficiency or lead customers to the better channels?

• Why are people returning certain products more than others?

• Who are the customers that use the various tools? Can we make the support journey easier for these customers?

• Is the chatbot performing optimally? Could we enable more intelligent prompts and drive more sales with predictive analysis?
