Key Responsibilities
Paid Media Performance Analytics — Meta Ads & Google Ads
- Analyze Meta Ads and Google Ads campaign performance at account, campaign, ad set, and creative level — applying structured performance analysis methodology to evaluate ROAS, CPA, CTR, CPM, frequency, and conversion metrics across all paid channels, identifying the specific campaigns, audiences, creatives, and bidding strategies that are generating the strongest efficiency and revenue outcomes and those that are draining budget without proportionate return
- Build and maintain paid media performance dashboards that give the marketing team and commercial leadership accurate, real-time visibility into paid channel performance — designing the reporting infrastructure that transforms raw Meta Ads and Google Ads data into the actionable, clearly visualized performance intelligence that enables confident, evidence-based budget allocation and campaign management decisions
- Evaluate creative and audience performance with analytical rigor — analyzing the performance of creative variants, audience segments, lookalike configurations, and interest targeting combinations across Meta and Google campaigns, producing the specific, statistically grounded creative and audience intelligence that enables the marketing team to continuously improve the quality and commercial effectiveness of paid media investments
- Monitor paid media efficiency against CAC targets and LTV benchmarks — maintaining continuous visibility of how paid acquisition costs compare with customer lifetime value projections by acquisition channel, cohort, and product category, providing the early warning signals of CAC inflation or LTV erosion that enable proactive campaign and budget strategy adjustments before they develop into material commercial problems
GA4 Analytics, Website Behavior & Conversion Rate Optimization
- Manage GA4 analytics implementation quality and develop comprehensive conversion tracking — ensuring that the GA4 data infrastructure correctly captures all commercially significant user interactions across the DTC website and app, maintaining event tracking accuracy, conversion goal completeness, and reporting data quality at the standard that reliable CRO and funnel analysis requires
- Conduct systematic conversion rate optimization (CRO) analysis — analyzing the website’s full conversion funnel from landing page through product discovery, add-to-cart, checkout initiation, and order completion to identify the specific friction points, drop-off stages, and user experience gaps that are suppressing conversion rates below their achievable potential
- Design and evaluate A/B experiments across landing pages, product pages, checkout flows, and marketing creatives — applying statistically sound experiment design and analysis methodology to evaluate the conversion rate and revenue impact of specific UX changes, offer structures, creative formats, and CTA configurations, producing the experimental evidence that builds a reliable, data-driven body of CRO knowledge over time
- Analyze user journey patterns, session quality, and behavioral engagement metrics — using GA4 exploration reports, funnel analysis, path analysis, and behavioral segmentation to understand how different customer segments navigate the DTC website, identifying the specific user journey characteristics that correlate with high conversion rates and strong repeat purchase behavior
Customer LTV, Cohort Analysis & Retention Modeling
- Build and maintain customer lifetime value (LTV) models by acquisition channel, product category, and customer segment — developing the predictive LTV framework that gives the brand’s marketing and commercial leadership the forward-looking customer economics insight needed to make well-informed paid media bidding, product development, and retention investment decisions
- Conduct customer cohort analysis — tracking how customer cohorts acquired in different periods, through different channels, or with different first purchase characteristics evolve in their repeat purchase behavior, average order value trajectory, and churn probability over time, identifying the acquisition and onboarding strategies that generate the most commercially valuable long-term customer relationships
- Build customer retention and churn analytics — analyzing the factors that predict repeat purchase behavior, identifying the early warning signals of customer churn, and quantifying the revenue impact of improvements in retention metrics at each stage of the customer lifecycle to inform the brand’s investment priorities across acquisition, activation, and loyalty programs
- Use SQL and Python (pandas, numpy, matplotlib, scikit-learn) for customer data analysis — building the analytical pipelines, cohort computation logic, and customer segmentation models that transform raw transaction and behavioral data into the customer intelligence that drives DTC brand growth strategy
Attribution Modeling, Reporting & Insight Communication
- Evaluate and manage marketing attribution methodologies — assessing the accuracy and commercial fairness of platform-reported attribution across Meta Ads, Google Ads, and organic channels, applying multi-touch attribution models, marketing mix modelling approaches, and incrementality testing to develop a more accurate understanding of each channel’s true contribution to revenue than last-click attribution alone can provide
- Produce weekly and monthly DTC performance reports for marketing and commercial leadership — creating the regular performance reporting cadence that keeps brand leadership accurately informed about growth metrics, acquisition efficiency, funnel performance, and retention trends, delivering findings with clear commercial context and specific, prioritized action recommendations
- Proactively identify growth opportunities and efficiency improvements — maintaining the constant analytical curiosity that surfaces valuable commercial insights without waiting for explicit requests, developing a reputation as the analytical resource that the brand’s marketing and commercial team turns to for the data-grounded growth ideas that drive the next stage of DTC revenue performance
Qualifications & Requirements
Educational Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Business Analytics, Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Economics, or a related quantitative discipline — providing the analytical, statistical, and commercial foundation that DTC growth analytics requires
Experience Requirements
- 2–4+ years of professional experience in DTC analytics, e-commerce performance analytics, digital marketing analytics, or a closely related role — with demonstrated hands-on ownership of paid media performance analysis, CRO analysis, and customer lifetime value modeling
- Strong GA4 proficiency — event tracking implementation quality management, advanced exploration reports, funnel analysis, and conversion tracking
- Hands-on Meta Ads and Google Ads data analysis experience — with specific familiarity with platform attribution methodologies and their limitations
- SQL and Python data analysis capability — for customer cohort analysis, LTV modeling, and data pipeline construction
