Digitas is The Connected Marketing Agency, relentlessly committed to helping brands better connect with people through our brand principles – Truth. Connection. Wonder.

Our team is deliberately diversified — with experts in data, strategy, creative, media, and tech working seamlessly across capabilities and continents to achieve ambitious outcomes through ideas that excite, provoke, and inspire. We are endlessly curious and fully transparent, always examining real human behaviour to create authentic connections — between brands and consumers, clients and partners, and ideas and outcomes.

We are constantly evolving and always looking to grow and better our business for both our people and clients. Our clients are like our extended family and operate in a diverse range of industries from travel & finance, to FMCG and automotive. We believe that to deliver the best solutions to our clients, our people need to reflect the diverse communities in which our clients operate. We value diversity, and the skills, knowledge and experience that difference brings to our culture and solutions.

We are currently on the lookout for the next rising star of our team – a Data Analyst – the position is based in Southbank, Melbourne with hybrid working flexibility. This role is a junior level position and candidates from diverse professional backgrounds who have an interest in growing their career in data analysis are welcome to apply. We encourage applications from Indigenous Australians, people with disability, people from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds, mature age workers, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) people.

Curiosity has its own reason for existing. We are looking for someone whose critical thinking is fuelled by curiosity. This will enable your creative thinking to solve business problems clients face by using data as a weapon and proactively stay ahead of the game. You will also have an insatiable thirst for understanding the context our clients operate in and helping teams execute powerful cross-channel marketing solutions powered by data-driven initiatives. You’ll receive exposure to a range of data-driven disciplines: deciphering client databases to create segmentation profiles; creating visually aesthetic & intuitive reports and; conceptualising reporting frameworks which all come together and creates wonder for our clients.
