Data Analysts

Lexer is a young technology start-up who is proudly obsessed with data - especially the Social and Behavioural kind.

For the last 18 months Lexer and it’s small team of developers have been busy working on two products: Lexer Listen & Lexer Target.
In typical start-up fashion, the products have been in closed beta, but since their inception they’ve been quietly working away for some of Australias largest brands & agencies.

For Lexer, it’s all about to change - it’s time to rip that beta badge off the products and bring them to the masses.

To achieve this Lexer is looking for Data Analysts.

Working closely with the Founder (@d2kagw) the Data Analysts will:

• Analyse Social Conversations: collected by Lexer Listen, our social media monitoring tool
• Produce Client Reports: based on a brief given to you by the greater team, using the Listen dashboard
• Generate Insights: by diving deep into our clients rich Social and Display Media data and constantly asking why

Interested?

The successful applicant should:

• Be passionate about data, online marketing and technology
• Have studied, or is studying in the fields of Media, Marketing or Communications
• Have strong communication skills - the ability to communicate data and insights in simple terms
• Be driven, autonomous, open-minded and hungry for more
• Be able to work a minimum of two days a week
• Introduce themselves by emailing links of their social media profiles (Twitter, LinkedIn, etc) to aaron.wallis@lexer.com.au.
