DATA ANALYST – SUBSCRIPTION PRODUCT
£45,000 + STRONG L&D CULTURE
REMOTE-FIRST | LONDON HQ

A data-driven subscription business is looking for a curious and proactive Data Analyst to join their growing analytics function. You’ll work as the embedded analyst within a cross-functional product tribe, collaborating closely with product managers, designers, and engineers to drive strategic decisions across user engagement and retention.

This is a remote-first company, but you’ll be asked to attend occasional team days in the London office (roughly once every 2-3 months).

THE ROLE
Reporting into the Head of Data Science & Insights, you’ll be the go-to analyst for your product tribe. This isn’t a role where you’ll be working off a backlog of stakeholder tickets – they’re looking for someone who’s naturally curious, confident in owning their analysis roadmap, and keen to surface ideas that lead to real business impact.

Your day-to-day will include:

  • Deep-diving into user data to optimise free trial performance and early-stage user journeys

  • Designing and analysing A/B tests to inform product development

  • Building and maintaining DBT pipelines and ensuring data models are fit for purpose

  • Collaborating with engineers to ensure Snowplow tracking is implemented correctly

  • Partnering across product, engineering, and design to identify and drive opportunities

YOUR SKILLS

  • Strong SQL skills – you’ll be writing it every day

  • A background in data analysis within a digital product environment

  • Experience with experimentation (A/B testing) is a strong plus

  • Experience with subscriptions or optimising user onboarding would be highly desirable

  • Python skills are a nice-to-have, but not essential

  • A self-starter mindset and comfortable working autonomously within a tribe model

WHAT YOU’LL GET

  • £45,000 base salary

  • Excellent learning and development budget with protected time for upskilling

  • Internal progression programmes and support

  • Remote-first culture with flexible working

  • Collaborative, high-impact team working on meaningful product challenges

PROCESS

  • Introductory interview with the hiring manager

  • Light case study (no data, focused on approach)

  • Technical interview with two team members

  • Culture interview with a stakeholder from another function

This team is in early stages of hiring, so you’ll be getting in at the ground level with no one else currently in process.

If you’re a data analyst looking for a strategic role within a collaborative product environment – and you want to work where your ideas genuinely shape direction – this could be the right move.
