Whether it's a Friday-night feast, a post-gym poke bowl, or grabbing some groceries, our tech platform connects tens of millions of customers with hundreds of thousands of restaurant, grocery and convenience partners across the globe. About this role At Just Eat Takeaway (JET), we are building a "One Logistics" data ecosystem. As a Senior Analyst in the Logistics Analytics team, you will be a key contributor to a major global transformation, moving beyond simple dashboard creation. Your mission is critical: to spearhead the transition from outdated legacy reporting to a modern Headless Semantic Layer architecture, which will be the engine powering our entire logistics operation. Working closely with your Team Lead and partnering with other data teams including our central Data & Analytics (DNA) team, you will help bridge the gap between complex raw data and the strategic needs of our global markets and courier delivery models (freelance, employee, third-party). Location: Hybrid- 3 days a week from our London office & 2 days working from home Reporting to: Senior Team Leader - Data, BI & Analytics Generalists & Leadership The Mission Collaborative Modeling: Partner with Data Engineering and the central DNA team to map our complex logistics models into the new Gold Layer. You'll be a key player in the KPI harmonisation effort, ensuring our definitions are consistent and accurate across every territory.

User-Centric Data Products: Work with stakeholders to design and deploy highly-documented Tableau self-serve products. Your goal is to make data so accessible that our business partners can find answers autonomously, reducing the need for manual data pulls.

These are some of the key ingredients to the role: A Collaborative Specialist: You thrive in a large corporate environment where communication and alignment are just as important as code. You know how to work within a team structure to get projects across the finish line. A Logic Translator: You enjoy the challenge of bridging fragmented systems. You can take varying operational processes from different markets and extract the underlying logic needed to build unified, cross-functional performance indicators. A Documentation Champion: You believe that for a data product to be "best-in-class," it must be transparent. You take pride in creating clear technical documentation that helps both peers and stakeholders trust the data. A Continuous Learner: You are excited about the shift toward headless BI and AI. You're ready to learn new tools (like Cube or dbt Semantic Layer) and help your teammates do the same. What will you bring to the table? The Essentials: Strong SQL skills and comfortable with Git workflows and version control. You know how to build modular, reusable models that serve as the foundation for a headless semantic layer. Visualisation Expertise: You are a Tableau specialist who builds with the end-user in mind. You focus on creating performant, governed, and intuitive dashboards that allow stakeholders to find their own answers. Logistics Knowledge: A solid understanding of (or a keen interest in) logistics operations and understanding they aren't just numbers on a page but have real-world impact - think ETA logic, courier supply, and customer experience. Governance & Documentation: You believe a data product isn't complete until it's documented. You take pride in creating clear, technical "manuals" for your data products so that logic is never hidden or misunderstood. Partnership Skills: Experience working within a structured data team (Analytic Engineers, Data Engineers, and Product Managers) to deliver large-scale projects.
