Overview

Who is Zenith Analytics?

 

At Zenith, we put data-driven understanding of our clients’ customers first, so we know whom to reach and when to talk to them. And by keeping our finger on the pulse of consumer attitudes and reactions, we know how to keep that conversation on track. That’s at the heart of Live ROI, and it all starts with Analytics.

 

What does Zenith Analytics do?

 

Working closely with both the Business Planning and Activation teams, Analytics designs the data strategy to tie our clients’ marketing to real-world business goals. We then mine that data to optimize campaigns and tell the stories that bring our clients closer to their marketing, helping them understand if they’re talking to the people they want, and if they’re doing it the right way.

 

What does a successful Analyst look like?

 

We don’t all look the same, and we don’t expect you to, either. But a successful Analyst should share our passion for emerging tech and media, bring a data-driven approach to decision-making, determine a point of view and share it in a positive way, gear up for a challenge, and always crave to learn more and improve. Familiarity with media analytics helps, especially digital media, but isn’t necessarily a requirement. Prior professional experience is highly desired.
