Overview

The Adecco NYC Team is seeking to hire a temp Data Analyst role for a client in NYC. The Temp Data Analyst will support and report to the Data Scientist, North America. The Analyst will support the Data Scientist with ongoing and ad hoc projects. Data hygiene is a known issue due to limitations with our current data systems, so much of the work will be support with cleaning and preparing data sets for analysis. The Analyst will also have the opportunity to support the Data Scientist with business intelligence and analytics projects, and, depending on the skill level of the Analyst, potentially carry out their own analysis with minimal supervision.

The other part of the role will be supporting in preparation for data collection and research. This will entail identifying sources of data and procuring data for upcoming studies, such as from State Departments of Education or from other sources. It will also entail support with administrative preparation for data gathering and research, such as setting up online data-gathering instruments (e.g. surveys).

The Temp Data Analyst is a temporary position. The initial period will be for 5 months with a possible extension.
