Job Title: Data Analyst
Company: Genie Shopping Ltd
Department: Genie Shopping Network (Product & Innovation)
Location: Flexible - Distributed with use of Cambridge office and occasional travel
Working Hours: Full Time 37.5 hours per week with flexible working arrangements
Salary Range: £36,575 - £39,623
Who is Genie Shopping? Genie Shopping is a UK-based, high-growth performance marketing business operating through the affiliate channel and CSS ecosystem. As a certified Google CSS Premium Partner, we work with retail giants like Boots, ebay, Frasers, B&Q, Three, and Lookfantastic, serving over 57 billion ad impressions to users across our network.
We differentiate ourselves through our managed CSS CPA model and our technical scale. We don’t act as a traditional CSS; we act as a performance partner. Alongside our self-managed SaaS offering, our core revenue comes from our CPA model, which means our success is directly aligned with our clients'. We are a driving force in the industry, leading the conversation through education, sponsorship, and active event contribution. This approach has led to huge success, doubling our growth in 2024 and setting new records in 2025.
We are a certified Great Place to Work with a remote-first setup. Our environment is small (~20 people) but ambitious.
We value:
Autonomy: We hire people who want to own their output. If you love solving complex problems and implementing your own ideas, you will thrive here.
Connection: We prioritise culture over geography. We get together for proper team socials every quarter - think punting, cocktail making, and go-karting, to ensure we stay connected as people, not just colleagues.
The team is remotely based, but has fluidity in meeting in-person for client meetings, industry events, strategy days and team socials. There are requirements to travel to Cambridge around once a month, with London (or other UK locations) once a month on average.
What is the role?
As a Data Analyst at Genie Shopping, you will play a crucial role in our continued growth and success within the performance marketing landscape.
In this role, you will analyse affiliate marketing data to track key commercial and performance metrics, verify data accuracy, and ensure this is reflected in our systems. Your responsibilities will include structuring reports, extracting data, and telling stories using the data to make recommendations and provide actionable insights to optimise our strategies. You'll also support strategic initiatives across teams, enable data-driven decision-making, and empower teams with self-serve data.
You will have the ability to create and maintain data sources, views and workbooks within Tableau, building on the existing infrastructure to visualise data for the team.
Key requirements for this role include strong data analysis skills and the ability to derive insights from large datasets. You should be able to communicate findings effectively, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and possess a detail-oriented, proactive mindset.
What you'll do
Data Quality Assurance: Conduct regular audits of our affiliate network transactional data to identify and resolve discrepancies, ensuring data integrity and reliability for reporting and analysis.
Retailer Performance Analysis: Analyse and identify critical factors influencing retailer performance, collaborate with cross-functional teams to facilitate data-informed decision-making, and develop self-service data solutions.
Project Support: Conduct ad-hoc data analyses and generate reports as needed to address specific business projects or new initiatives.
Business Reporting: Improve and innovate the way we report key performance across regular reporting periods like daily, weekly and monthly snapshots in Slack.
Documentation: Maintain clear and concise documentation of data processes, reports, and methodologies to facilitate knowledge sharing and consistency.
Automation: Identify opportunities to automate data processes and reporting to improve efficiency and reduce manual effort.
Collaboration on Data Infrastructure: Work closely with the development team to improve data collection, storage, and management processes, suggesting enhancements to the data infrastructure to support better business reporting and insights.
