As a Retail Media Data Operations Analyst at Omni Channel Solutions, your role is essential in transforming fragmented reporting from retail media networks, third-party media partners, retailers, and measurement providers into standardized, validated, and analysis-ready datasets. You will serve as the operational bridge between media activation, partner reporting, Business Intelligence, and client analytics.

Your responsibilities will cover the full data preparation lifecycle—from reporting intake and completeness checks to normalization, quality assurance, documentation, and delivery. By ensuring data accuracy, consistency, and usability, you will enable Retail Media and Shopper Marketing teams to dedicate more time to performance analysis, strategic recommendations, and executive storytelling.

You will collaborate closely with Business Intelligence, Retail Media, Shopper Marketing, and other cross-functional teams to maintain reliable reporting processes, identify data-quality issues, and support scalable solutions. Your ability to organize complex datasets, identify inconsistencies, document processes, and communicate clearly will directly contribute to efficient reporting operations and improved client outcomes..
