At Scoutbee, we’re building the world’s most intelligent supplier discovery and qualification platform, powered by AI and backed by a rapidly growing network of global buyers and suppliers. We’re growing fast and hiring a Business Analytics Lead to drive activity and engagement across our buyer-supplier marketplace. In this role, you’ll ensure buyers are actively using the platform to find suppliers and publish sourcing events, while keeping suppliers engaged and aligned with demand. The result: real value for suppliers, better outcomes for buyers, and a marketplace that grows sustainably over the long term.

This is a highly strategic and cross-functional role. You’ll work across product, growth, supplier experience, and customer success - connecting the dots to unlock marketplace potential. You’ll engage with senior leaders, shape segment-specific strategies, and lead programs from concept to execution.

Your role in our beehive:

  • Decision Support & Insights: Analyze campaign performance, pricing models, buyer–supplier engagement, and overall platform health. Identify opportunities to drive revenue, optimize spend, and improve efficiency.
  • Strategic Analysis: Lead deep dives on major initiatives (e.g., new feature rollouts, supplier acquisition & activation, pricing experiments) and deliver clear recommendations.
  • Funnel & Lifecycle Analytics: Design and maintain dashboards and KPIs to track the full supplier lifecycle, from acquisition and onboarding through monetization and retention.
  • Reporting Infrastructure: Build scalable data systems and tools that ensure stakeholders have access to accurate, timely insights. Automate reporting and alerting for high-signal events.
  • Cross-Functional Partnership: Work closely with Product, Marketing, Supplier Experience, and Growth Ops to guide roadmaps, monitor experiments, and ensure shared visibility on key performance trends.

What you bring to our beehive:

  • 4+ years of experience in business or product analytics, preferably in a SaaS, marketplace, or growth-oriented environment
  • Strong skills in SQL and BI tools, including proficiency in Metabase (experience with Looker, Tableau, or Power BI is also valuable); experience with Python, R, or similar is a plus.
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills—able to break down ambiguous problems and structure data-driven solutions
  • Clear, structured communicator who’s comfortable engaging with stakeholders at all levels
  • Experience supporting marketing, product, or growth teams with metrics, experimentation, and forecasting
  • Bonus: Experience in a Post-Merger Integration environment

What success looks like:

  • Clearly defined lifecycle KPIs and accessible dashboards across all key teams
  • Trusted strategic insights that shape product and growth priorities
  • Actionable analyses that lead to measurable improvements in supplier acquisition, retention, and monetization
  • Faster decision-making enabled by scalable and self-serve reporting infrastructure

What's in it for you?

  • Opportunity to help shape the world’s biggest procurement network
  • Work cross-functionally with top talent across GTM, product, and platform teams
  • Competitive compensation and wellness budgets
  • Remote-flexible, mission-driven culture committed to better global procurement

We'd love to hear from you!

At Scoutbee, we value personality, curiosity, and cultural fit more than perfect qualifications. If you’re unsure whether you tick every box, that’s okay. Imposter syndrome and self-doubt are real, but they shouldn’t hold you back. We believe not knowing everything can be a strength. It creates space for growth, learning, and fresh perspectives. We're here to support and learn from each other as we grow together.
