The role
We are looking to hire a Senior Analytics Engineer to join our Data Science team in London.
This is a hybrid role based out of our London office. A minimum of 3 days per week in office is required.
Working at WGSN
Together, we create tomorrow
A career with WGSN is fast-paced, exciting and full of opportunities to grow and develop. We're a team of consumer and design trend forecasters, content creators, designers, data analysts, advisory consultants and much more, united by a common goal: to create tomorrow.
WGSN's trusted consumer and design forecasts power outstanding product design, enabling our customers to create a better future. Our services cover consumer insights, beauty, consumer tech, fashion, interiors, lifestyle, food and drink forecasting, data analytics and expert advisory. If you are an expert in your field, we want to hear from you.
Role overview
At WGSN, we believe that data is only as valuable as the decisions it empowers. As a Senior Analytics Engineer, you will sit at the vital intersection of Data Analysis and Data Engineering. Your mission is to bridge the gap between raw data and commercial value by building the internal tools, prototypes, and scalable data models that fuel our business intelligence.
Unlike traditional data engineering roles focused on heavy production infrastructure, you will focus on agility—leveraging modern tech stacks and AI acceleration to spin up prototypes and methodologies quickly then scale dashboards and tools over time.
As a Senior member of the team, you will be the champion of data best practices. You will initially focus on technical leadership as an individual contributor and mentoring other analysts to elevate their data modeling and software engineering skills. Over time, this role is expected to transition into direct line management responsibilities as the team expands.
The team
The WGSN Data team is a vibrant, multicultural mix of brilliant minds, blending global perspectives with deep expertise in retail and consumer analytics across a diverse range of industries such as fashion, beauty, interiors, and FMCG. Driven by a spirit of collaboration, we leverage our varied skill sets to transform complex datasets into high-impact insights, enabling our stakeholders to make confident, actionable, and results-driven business decisions.
Key accountabilities
Scalable Data Modeling: Design, build, and maintain robust, modular data models within Snowflake using dbt core, ensuring they are optimized for performance and aligned with business needs.
Prototyping & Internal Tools: Rapidly build interactive GUIs, internal data applications and dashboards, and prototypes using Streamlit or similar to get actionable tools into the hands of stakeholders.
Software Engineering Best Practices: Enforce modern software development standards across the analytics team, including rigorous version control (GitHub), CI/CD pipelines, and data testing paradigms.
Data Integrity: Take ultimate ownership of data quality, cleaning, and transformation processes to ensure the wider business operates on a single source of truth.
Team Mentorship: Actively coach and mentor data analysts, guiding them in writing production-grade SQL, adopting Python, and embracing dbt best practices.
Culture of Learning: Foster an environment of continuous learning, specifically helping the team explore more advanced technologies.
Translate Business to Tech: Partner with non-technical business leaders and technical engineering teams alike to translate complex commercial needs into working data solutions.
Advocacy & Sharing: Proactively showcase new data products, share analytical insights with the wider business, and vocally champion data-driven decision-making in cross-functional meetings.
Agile Execution: Manage your work and dependencies independently using JIRA within a sprint framework, remaining highly adaptable to changes in scope or project requirements.
This list is not exhaustive and there may be other activities you are required to deliver.
Skills, experience & qualifications required
Data Warehousing: Advanced proficiency with Snowflake and writing highly efficient, complex SQL queries.
Scripting & Modeling: Strong Python development skills for data manipulation and hands-on experience with data modeling (dbt core)
UI/UX & Frontend: A proven track record of building user-friendly internal tools. A deep understanding of what makes a practical, intuitive UI/UX is what will set you apart. Experience with Streamlit is highly preferred (React is a plus).
AI-Augmented Development: Comfort and experience using modern AI agents (e.g., VS Code, Cursor, Codex, or similar tools) to accelerate code generation, prototyping, and debugging.
Advanced Data Tech: Exposure to or strong interest in data science concepts, machine learning workflows, vectorization/embeddings, and graph databases.
Project Management: Comfortable working inside JIRA, managing sprints, and proactively calling out project dependencies.
Empathetic Communicator: You are comfortable presenting to senior leadership one hour and debugging a query with a junior analyst the next. You know how to make technical concepts clear to anyone.
5-8 years of experience in Analytics Engineering or a combination of Data Analytics and Data Engineering required.
The "Follow Your Nose" Mentality: You possess an analytical mind fueled by curiosity and resourcefulness. When data looks strange or an opportunity is hidden, you have the instinct to dig deep and simplify complex information.

YOUR MISSION As a member of our Data team, you'll take full ownership of the systems that turn raw data into decisions—for our product, our internal teams, our customers, and our investors. You won't just maintain dashboards; you'll own the pipeline end to end, from ingestion to the numbers people actually act on. In your first few months, you might: * Take ownership of our dbt pipeline, improving our data models so they're reliable, well-tested, and easy to build on. * Maintain and extend our Looker setup, and ship new dashboards and reports that customers and other stakeholders depend on. * Strengthen our data pipeline from Postgres to BigQuery, and build custom Python scripts to automate the flows that keep our warehouse fresh. * Integrate our data warehouse with external tools like Salesforce or ActiveCampaign, so the right data reaches the teams that need it. HOW WE BUILD: OUR ENGINEERING CULTURE We believe in a calm, collaborative, and productive engineering environment. We trust our people and give them the autonomy to do their best work. Our approach includes: * Ownership Over Handoffs: On a small data team, you own your work from ingestion to dashboard. We trust you to make decisions and run with them. * Quality by Default: We treat our data models like production code—tested, version-controlled, and documented—so the numbers we serve are ones we can stand behind. * DevOps Mindset: We automate the boring parts. Pipelines, syncs, and checks are powered by third-party tools or GitHub Actions so the team can focus on the work that needs a human. * Collaboration & Transparency: We value open discussion, constructive reviews, and a culture where the best idea wins, regardless of who it comes from. * AI-Native by Default: We work heavily with Claude Code and other AI tools, and they're a core part of how we build—from writing models and scripts to debugging pipelines and exploring data. We expect everyone on the team to use them fluently and keep getting better at it. YOUR PROFILE We're looking for an experienced data practitioner who likes owning the full stack of an analytics platform. You'll be a great fit if you have: * Significant professional experience building and maintaining data models with dbt and writing advanced SQL. * Solid Python skills for data syncing, automation, and general scripting. * Hands-on experience with a cloud data warehouse such as BigQuery, and comfort working with source databases like Postgres. * Experience building dashboards and serving data to non-technical stakeholders (a strong command of Looker is a big plus). * Strong, hands-on familiarity with AI coding tools—especially Claude Code—and a habit of using them as part of your daily workflow. * A pragmatic approach to problem-solving and a high sense of ownership, feeling comfortable driving projects independently. * Excellent communication skills in English. BONUS POINTS FOR (NICE-TO-HAVES): * Experience with reverse ETL or integrating a data warehouse with tools like ActiveCampaign or Salesforce. * Experience building and maintaining CI/CD or automation pipelines (e.g. GitHub Actions). * Experience preparing data and reporting for external audiences such as customers or investors. * An interest in data engineering best practices, pipeline reliability, and infrastructure-as-code. WHY US? * Competitive Compensation: A competitive salary above the market average. * Work-Life Balance: Choose to work 100% remotely or from our modern office in Berlin. We offer flexible working hours to fit your life. * Top-Notch Equipment: A new MacBook Pro to ensure you have the best tools for the job. * A Great Team: Regular company off-sites and team events that connect us as people, not just colleagues. * Job Security: A permanent contract in a stable, well-funded company.
