Data Analyst Partner Strategy

Do you like solving complex puzzles within the partner domain?

At bol, we are dedicated to making daily life more convenient for our customers. We do that via our own retailer as well as via our many selling partners. As a Data Analyst within Partner Strategy & Propositions, you play an important role in understanding partner behaviour and evaluating how our strategy and propositions impact both partners and customers. Because successful partners lead to happy customers.

How do you make our customers happy?

As a Data Analyst within Partner Strategy & Propositions, you help bol understand partner behaviour and evaluate how strategy and propositions impact both partners and customers—supporting successful partners and, in turn, happy customers.

What do you do as a Data Analyst within Partner Strategy & Propositions?

You join a group of data professionals within the Partner Analytics team who work on a broad range of strategic and proposition related topics. In this role, you analyse partner behaviour across multiple themes and help shape data-driven decisions within the partner domain. This includes supporting partner propositions around logistic services that enable partners to (partly) outsource their logistics to bol. Your work supports the growth, adoption and long-term success of these propositions.

Depending on your experience, you take ownership of analyses and gradually grow into a more independent advisory role. You work closely with experienced analysts and strategists, combining hands on analysis with learning how insights influence strategy and propositions.

Some specific responsibilities include

• Translating partner strategy and proposition questions into clear, structured analyses using SQL and Python
• Analysing partner behaviour to identify trends, drivers and opportunities for improvement
• Supporting and evaluating partner propositions (e.g. logistic services) and strategic initiatives with data-driven insights
• Visualising findings clearly and sharing them through dashboards, presentations and reports
• Collaborating closely with stakeholders from strategy, product and partner proposition teams to ensure insights lead to action
• Taking increasing ownership of analyses and contributing proactively to new topics

Why can you make the difference?

You are a data professional at the start of your career or with a few years of experience who wants to develop broadly within analytics and strategy. You enjoy working with data and are curious to understand the partner domain in depth.

You are comfortable working independently on analyses, while also valuing feedback and collaboration. You want to strengthen both your technical skills and your ability to translate insights into clear advice for stakeholders. You are motivated to grow in impact, responsibility and domain knowledge within Partner Strategy & Propositions.
