Are you ready to take your career to the next level? The Business Operations & Strategy team is responsible for identifying areas of improvement and driving the strategy behind those operational changes to deliver incremental and sustainable growth in user contribution, traffic, and revenue. As an Analyst, you will work cross-functionally with various segments of our business to support these initiatives. We work with our Sales organization to help design its incentive compensation system, pilot new products and price points to sell to business owners. We strategize with our Marketing team to identify new and more efficient ways to acquire new customers. We partner with our Community Management organization to help identify new ways to encourage contribution (e.g. reviews, photos) from Yelp users. We collaborate with our Product Teams to provide analysis needed to help determine the most impactful product priorities.
