The role
As part of the global data and insights team at ITV Studios, our goal is to deliver the best global intelligence from brilliant data sets to maximise revenue across Global Sales for scripted, unscripted and formats, Zoo55, Brand Partnerships via Studio 55 as well for Content & Production.
As the data analyst within the Global Viewing team, you will be responsible for delivering the insights which support our global content strategy and sales. While viewing data is our core currency, you go further, triangulating Ratings (BARB/Nielsen) with Market data Intelligence (Ampere, K7, NoTa) and Social Sentiment (i.e. Sprinklr) to build a 360-degree view of success. You focus on strategic, forward-looking analysis that helps us understand why content travels, puts performance into context for the channel, platform or market, and consider the business and commercial implications of your findings.
The role
- Data Alignment: Support the senior and lead analyst defining the technical data mapping across territories. You ensure that our key content brands (e.g. Love Island) are accurately aligned across international datasets to maintain a "Single Source of Truth" for our key content brands
- Data Extraction: Use SQL and viewing platforms (e.g., Techedge/BARB) to extract performance data. You handle regular and ad-hoc data retrieval for the sales teams, moving beyond standard dashboards to find specific answers.
- Data Integrity: Maintain the day-to-day quality of our data.
- Market Data Augmentation: Assist in the collection of alternative metrics for "data-poor" markets. You help find and organize non-traditional data to provide a clearer picture where official ratings are limited.
Insight delivery
- Territory Analysis: Support in developing a good understanding of viewership trends in specific international markets. You provide the "so what" by putting show performances into the context of local platform trends.
Dashboarding & automation
- Dashboard Optimization: Update and enhance interactive visualization dashboards (Looker/Tableau). You help stakeholders transition from manual Excel files to self-serve automated tools by ensuring views are accurate and user-friendly.
- Automation Identification: Proactively identify repetitive manual tasks in your workflow. You work closely with the Senior Analyst to define requirements for technical data pipelining, helping to move the team toward more automated solutions.
Skills you’ll need (minimum criteria)
- Demonstrable experience in a data analytics or business intelligence role, with a proven track record of using SQL to query and manipulate datasets. You must be comfortable working with raw data and have an interest in data quality and enrichment.
- Working proficiency with cloud-based platforms such as GCP (BigQuery) or equivalent to extract and process data.
- Sound knowledge of international viewing currencies and software (e.g., Techedge, Nielsen, BARB). You understand the core metrics of linear (ratings, share) and the basic principles of streaming data.
- Experience translating data into clear, actionable insights for commercial or sales teams. You can go beyond "what the number is" to explain "what the number means" for a show or market.
