What do you get when you combine the expert application of new software and tech with a unique perspective on bridging the traditional gap between business and IT? You—an analytics consultant. You want to empower customers to make well-informed, data-driven decisions as part of a solid team, and you're hungry for the freedom to innovate and create unique solutions for clients.
Analytics consultants work hand-in-hand with clients and must possess friendly, engaging personalities. The primary goal must be to help clients understand and manipulate data in order to gain value from it. That value could be created through technical processes like SQL or ETL, or it may be rooted in visual analytics tools like Tableau. Ultimately, our analytics consultants need to wield a variety of skillsets, from tech foundation to business application, in a way that goes above and beyond client expectations.
InterWorks analytics consultants build projects for a diverse range of clients and industries, from Fortune 100 to local business. Our projects run the full length of the analytics spectrum, ranging from data capture and storage all the way to the boardroom's forecast analysis. Project teams may include technical specialists in component disciplines, as well as business-focused generalists. You may work as part of a team that requires specialties in data capture and storage, ETL, data science, dashboarding, training or change management. Agile development methodologies pervade our engagements, and the ability to adapt to change quickly is paramount. Consultants will need to be ready to go anywhere with data—including data warehouses, data lakes and the cloud—and not shy away from data modeling and engineering.
So, what can you expect from InterWorks? Well, it's crucial to us that we provide an exciting work environment with a unique (and sometimes straight-up nerdy) company culture. InterWorks employees are some of the friendliest, most intelligent people you will ever meet, and they're the main ingredient in the secret sauce of our success.
