Data Analyst - Strategic Marketing

Data Analyst - Cape Town

We’re looking for a Data Analyst to join our team here at ClearScore in Cape Town. You will join the team in delivering insight, analysis and recommendations which allow ClearScore to rapidly scale and deliver a seamless experience for our users. Analysts play a key role within ClearScore, driving strategy and key decision-making, which ultimately benefits our users, partners, and other teams within the business. 

ClearScore has an amazing analytical community which includes Data Analysts, Scientists and Engineers. The community works collaboratively to ensure a landscape in which team members can develop their full potential and deliver maximum business impact.

ClearScore is both a free credit score and report service and the UK’s leading consumer credit marketplace. In this role, you will play a key role in global analytics and insight generation across key marketing and registration initiatives - owning performance measurement, driving experimentation and strategy to unlock user-scale and revenue growth.

For more information on our tech stack check out our 2026 Tech Radar , how we work is summarised in our Engineering Principles and we have many other Tech Blogs on Medium.

What you will be doing:

• Partner with Marketing, Product and Commercial teams to generate insights that shape our marketing strategy and decision-making.
• Design and analyse experiments to improve user experience, volume and maximise user value generation
• Conduct deep-dive strategic analyses to identify growth opportunities across the marketing funnel.
• Presenting your analysis or recommendations to stakeholders at various levels across the business

Skills we'd love you to have

• You must possess SQL and Excel skills. Knowledge of dbt, python, and analytical tools such as Amplitude is a plus
• Experience using Domo or other data visualisation tools such as Tableau
• Strong critical thinking skills; being able to evaluate challenging and nuanced data to draw conclusions, build opinions and recommendations
• Strong quantitative and numerical skills
• Ability to plan and prioritise your own workload with a global analytics team
• You have a desire to learn and enjoy working collaboratively, with a desire to contribute to our culture.
• You do not need to fit into a stereotype: we are really committed to closing our gender gap and are actively trying to create an environment where you as an individual can thrive.

ClearScore is on a mission to make the world of personal finance clearer, calmer, and easier to understand. It starts with the free credit score and report but we're about to do so much more.

We want to take the complex financial decisions that people make in their lives and make them easier. We hold one of the biggest FinTech user bases in the world of over 22 million users but run ourselves like little start-ups. You're encouraged to challenge the status quo and fight for the better.

Since our launch in July 2015 in the UK we have expanded our product into South Africa in 2017, and Australia in 2020 and Canada in 2022. Our company culture is a fundamental part of all we have achieved. We believe in hiring smart, driven, passionate and diverse people who are keen on having a real impact in our organization.

We trust you to manage your own time, so we offer flexible work and no fixed desk hours. We don't micromanage and believe in measuring outcomes rather than effort. We have an inclusive culture where all, regardless of seniority, are encouraged to contribute with their ideas, look after their wellbeing and actively seek opportunities for career growth.

We also have a super-fast and friendly interview process, which is more like having a friendly discussion than being put under a microscope or pressure. We want to know the real you and if you'd be a great fit for us.
