It requires an analytical approach to break down customer data and spot insights others might miss. More and more companies are looking for data experts – both agency based and in-house.

Why consider a career as a Marketing Analyst?
The use of data in marketing is increasing exponentially.

From this, analysts can work closely with digital and marketing teams to make commercial recommendations that can increase sales and profit.
A career as a Marketing Analyst allows one to apply their data analysis skills to real-world, commercial scenarios. Retail, eCommerce are the industries with the largest insight & analytics teams.
You’ll constantly have an eye out for new tools that become available and could be useful for your business or client. This includes tools to gather data as well as those used to filter, analyze, evaluate and visualise.

What qualifications do you need for a job as a Marketing Analyst?
An analytical degree (e.g. statistics, Maths, Chemistry, Physics, Economics) is looked at favorably in the industry. Those who have used programmes such as R, SPSS or MATLAB during the undergraduate or postgraduate programmes are sought after. However, it is possible to enter the field of Insight and Analytics with a Marketing degree if you have been exposed to data and analytics in a commercial setting. A popular route into becoming a Digital Analyst is a digital marketing background (e.g. Digital Marketing Executive) where you have the underpinning understanding of paid media performance, social media, conversion rate optimisation and Google Analytics. This is then built upon with the data analysis skills.
