THE CHALLENGE
Eventbrite
has a world-class data repository of live events, with our platform
powering millions of events and hundreds of millions of ticket
transactions each year in 170+ countries. We employ a data-driven
approach to understanding the needs of event organizers and attendees in
order to build the best platform to serve those needs. We rely on a
combination of data analysis and user research to inform our product
roadmap, and make heavy use of experimentation to monitor the health of
our product innovations and to measure their impact on our company’s
objectives.
THE TEAM
Our
growing Analytics team is comprised of product analysts, business
analysts, and pricing analysts. The Analytics team sits in a strategy
role working to make sense of our structured and unstructured data with
in-depth analyses that inform our product and business strategy.
-
The product analysts work closely with our Product Development and User
Research teams to provide data-driven insights to inform the product
roadmap and product strategy. In addition, product analysts design the
experimental framework we employ to measure the impact of new products
on our company’s objectives.
- The business analysts work
closely with Finance and Accounting to support forecasting, investor
relations, and financial reporting.
- The pricing analysts
use a data-driven approach to optimizing our pricing and packaging
strategy across the many countries in which we compete.
As
Eventbrite continues to grow, the types of questions we ask and the data
we look at also grows, requiring us to work better and smarter. Our
team of creative self-starters has no problem tackling unstructured
problems with a lot of independence and articulating our insights to the
business to drive impact.
THE ROLE
We
are looking for a Senior Director, Analytics to provide leadership,
mentoring, and training for our team of analysts. This leader will help
us to grow the team to have greater impact on the business. We believe
that the best analytics leaders are also practitioners, so we are
looking for an individual who will roll up their sleeves to dig into the
data in order to derive detailed analyses while also providing guidance
on best practices and driving consistency across the team of analysts.
You will report to the Chief Data Strategy Officer and will work closely
with our product development, finance, and pricing teams. You will be a
key decision-maker in analytical and experimental tool selections. In

is ultimately having the desired impact on our high-level company
objectives.
