We are looking for a blend of technical curiosity and a sharp eye for detail.
6. Domain Knowledge: A foundational understanding of master data domains (e.g., product, customer, vendor).
7. The Toolkit: Exposure to reporting or visualization tools (Power BI, SQL, Alteryx, or Access) and comfort using Google Workspace.
8. Process Mindset: An interest in process improvement (Lean/Six Sigma) and a desire to learn how data drives commercial value.
9. Analytical Rigor: High attention to detail with the ability to clean, transform, and prep datasets for complex analytics.
