To think really well our brains needs rest and focus. In balancing our time, energy and attention, we rejuvenate with power naps, mindfulness or even a quick planking challenge.
IN A NUTSHELL
Since we launched with a range of six wallets 13+ years ago, we’ve grown significantly and now release about 50 new products a year (give or take). We are proud of the products we put out into the world, and our Production team is key to ensuring all of these products (and those yet to come) are manufactured on time, in the right quantity and up to standard.
As our Analyst, you’ll play a pivotal role in ensuring the team is armed with the right information to make better decisions, reduce costs and increase capacity through process improvements. You’ll work closely with our internal and external partners to streamline operations, analyse production KPIs and identify opportunities to improve well… everything.
Bring us your clear-thinking mind, and focus on practical applications of data to help us, our world-class team will give you the freedom, resources and support you need to make a difference.
YOU COULD BE THE ONE IF YOU...
- Have 2-5 years of experience working with large sets of data, including sourcing data from different systems, pulling it together and drawing practical insights out of it
- Are deeply interested in and have a strong understanding of global supply chain, production planning and/or manufacturing (either through experience or formal education)
- Advanced skills in spreadsheet modelling and data visualisation using BI tools
- Enjoy deep diving into data, and have a knack for seeing the right insights to produce useful reports and make calibrated recommendations for the wider team
- Like to understand problems and have a desire to search for the root cause. You’d much rather suggest long-term solutions vs fixing symptoms
- Possess excellent communication skills and want to work collaboratively in a team within a fast-paced, agile environment
IF YOU WERE HERE LAST MONTH, YOU MIGHT HAVE…

- Conducted a feasibility study on new potential factories and their locations
- Compared shipping time and cost-effectiveness on direct shipments to customers vs 3PL services for recurring orders

WHY WORK FOR BELLROY?
We make great products that delight people in their everyday lives. We help our staff love their work and grow as people. We believe in working to help make the world a better place. As a certified B Corp, we pursue better ways to source our leathers (for environmental impact and animal welfare), reduce our impact on the environment and make sure our products last as long as possible. We are constantly looking for better ways to do… well, everything.
