GlobalData is a specialist information services business on a mission to help our clients decode the future, make better decisions and reach more customers. Using our unique data, expert analysis and innovative solutions we deliver intelligence on the world’s largest industries for companies, government organisations and industry professionals.

We began our journey in 2016, by combining a diverse range of specialist information services companies, with decades of trusted customer relationships and deep sector specialisms. Today, we operate as a single company and one fully integrated platform, with more than 3,500 colleagues worldwide, across 20+ industries, delivering value for over 5,000 customers.

GlobalData is at a pivotal point in its growth journey. Following multiple acquisitions and having recently received transformational investment we need curious, ambitious, courageous people to support us in achieving our vision of becoming the world’s trusted source of strategic industry intelligence.

As a Strategy & Transformation Analyst, you will play a key role in supporting the execution of GlobalData’s strategic initiatives and value creation agenda. Working closely with senior stakeholders, you will contribute to cross-functional projects focused on enhancing the Go-To-Market strategy, supporting new product development, and enabling the company’s AI and digital transformation efforts. This role offers a unique opportunity to gain broad exposure across the business, develop strong analytical skills, and drive meaningful impact in a high-growth environment.

What you’ll be doing:

• Strategic Initiative Support: Assist in the execution of the company's strategic priorities by collaborating with leadership and cross-functional teams to ensure alignment and timely progress.
• Market Research and Analysis: Conduct thorough research on market trends, competitor activities, and industry developments to provide insights that inform strategic decisions.
• Data Analysis and Reporting: Collect, analyze, and interpret data related to business performance, identifying patterns and opportunities for improvement. Prepare reports and presentations to communicate findings to stakeholders.
• Process Improvement: Evaluate existing business processes to identify inefficiencies or areas for enhancement. Support the development and implementation of solutions to optimize operations and drive efficiency.
• Project Coordination: Support the planning and execution of strategic projects by coordinating tasks, tracking progress, and ensuring that project milestones are met.
• Change Management Assistance: Aid in the development and dissemination of communication materials related to organizational changes. Monitor and report on the adoption of new initiatives, identifying areas where additional support may be needed.
• Stakeholder Engagement: Build and maintain effective relationships with internal stakeholders to facilitate collaboration and ensure that strategic initiatives are well-supported across the organization.

What we’re looking for:

• 1-3 years’ experience in a top-tier consulting firm (MBB, Big 4, or equivalent), with a strong track record in strategy, transformation, or growth-focused engagements.
• Proven exposure to Go-To-Market strategy, product innovation, operational efficiency, or broader business transformation initiatives.
• Exceptional analytical and critical thinking skills, with the ability to distill complex problems and develop data-backed, actionable insights.
• Strong communication and storytelling abilities, with confidence presenting to and influencing senior stakeholders across functions.
• Demonstrated ability to work autonomously on individual workstreams while contributing effectively to cross-functional teams.
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity, bringing structure, prioritization, and commercial awareness to evolving business challenges.
• Execution-focused mindset, thriving in dynamic, fast-paced environments with a strong sense of ownership and initiative.
• Experience in SaaS, B2B tech, or start-up environments is a plus, but not essential.

In addition to a rewarding career, we support our GlobalData colleagues with a range of benefits across health, finances, fitness, travel, tech and more. GlobalData believes strongly in the value of diversity and creating supportive, inclusive environments where our colleagues can succeed. As such, we are proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer.
