The role
We have an exceptional opportunity for talented people keen to fast-track their careers. Our analytics team is growing quickly, and this means for talented team players that are willing to work hard there’s unbeatable opportunities for career progression.
We’re an approved Google Analytics Certified Partner, a Google Analytics 360 Suite Reseller in multiple countries, highly regarded provider of analytics training courses one of an even smaller number of approved Doubleclick Channel Partners.

There will also be opportunities for those with an interest in doing so, to get involved with our training programme.
