Document and assess current state processes through current state, future state, and gap analysis.
  • Reporting & Dashboard Development: Identify critical metrics and create automated dashboards to monitor business health and performance. Conduct quantitative and qualitative analyses and deep dives of patterns and trends to drive business decisions and address business questions, ensuring you determine and gather the necessary data elements to tell the story and drive outcomes.
  • Project Leadership & Best Practices: Plan, execute, and oversee data projects, providing technical leadership in a dynamic environment. Ensure data integrity and accuracy across all WFM reporting and integrated systems, utilizing WFM best practices from ICMI, SWPP, and COPC to guide automation and integration strategies.
  • Cross-functional Collaboration: Collaborate closely with WFM and Operations teams to understand reporting and data integration requirements, fostering strong partnerships to achieve shared goals.

  • 2+ years of experience with omnichannel routing systems such as Salesforce, NICE, CXOne.
  • Expert in SQL, Python and Excel, capable of querying and analyzing large datasets with ease.
  • Excellent communication skills, able to convey findings and recommendations to non-technical stakeholders in a clear, compelling manner.
  • Highly organized with a keen attention to detail.
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently and in a team setting. 
  • Effective time management skills and ability to manage multiple priorities using project management principles 

Our cash compensation amount for this role is $104,000/yearly to $132,000/yearly in Denver & most major metro locations, and $134,000/yearly to $160,000/yearly for San Francisco & New York.
