The Staff Analyst identifies opportunities to improve Supply Chains and product ranges, draws out key insights, and generalises learnings that can benefit all Partners.
By working closely with Product Managers, the Analyst helps embed these insights into OSP, building impactful, data-driven decision support tools that enhance partner outcomes and strengthen the platform’s overall capability.

• Collaboration Across Teams: Work with Product Managers, Data Engineers, Data Scientists, and other stakeholders to integrate models and tools into the Ocado Smart Platform, ensuring user-friendly, scalable solutions for retail partners.
