What you tell your friends you do as BI Analyst? 

"My first tasks have been to develop a good understanding of the products of Scarlet and I have been analyzing the BI reports to identify if they were used by the business in the most efficient way. Through these tasks I have obtained an overview of all the data in the company and I’m making sure all data-sources are harvested correctly to observe current and predict future customer behavior. I also have an active role in the implementation of Big data at Scarlet."

The team you will work in 

You’ll team up with a small but enthusiastic team of guys and girls with a deep passion for Scarlet. Next to that, you will work with your manager to create the ultimate partnership to ensure Business Intelligence becomes one of the indispensable core-assets of Scarlet, providing insights and support for the business and its customers.

How will you be taking on this BI Analyst challenge?

In parallel and by closely interacting with your team and the main business-stakeholders and by having an in-depth knowledge about the innovative BI and big-data tools, you will develop and evangelize an innovative ‘enterprise-intelligence’.
