  • Build & Maintain Dashboards: Assist in the development, maintenance, and optimization of key sales performance and recruitment dashboards (using tools like Tableau, Power BI, or similar).
  • Analyze Performance: Conduct variance analysis to identify immediate risks and uncover new opportunities within sales performance, strategic initiatives, and hiring efficiency across the EU.
  • Strategic Contribution: Support deep-dive studies, contribute to formal business cases, and perform competitor benchmarking to inform sales strategy and commercial decisions.
  • Localized Insights: Provide tailored, country-specific or hub-specific analytics and reporting support directly to the Field Sales teams.
What We’re Looking For (Minimum Qualifications)
  • Currently pursuing or recently completed a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Business, Economics, Finance, Mathematics, or a related analytical field.
  • Proven Advanced Proficiency in Microsoft Excel (e.g., Pivot Tables, complex formulas, data manipulation).
  • Demonstrated passion for data visualization and reporting; experience with SQL and/or a BI tool (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, Looker) is a significant plus.
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable owning a daily/weekly reporting cadence with high accuracy.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain complex data clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Fluency in English (written and verbal) is required; proficiency in other major EU languages is a benefit.
Why Join Us?
  • High Impact: You will be supporting a team that is directly responsible for EU-wide growth and expansion at Sumup. Your work will inform leadership decisions every single week.
