**Company Description**
Nine is Australia’s largest locally owned media company - the home of Australia’s most trusted and loved brands spanning News, Sport, Lifestyle, and Entertainment. We pride ourselves on creating the best content, accessed by consumers when and how they want - across Publishing, Broadcasting and Digital.

Our Purpose: We shape culture by sparking conversations, challenging perspectives, and entertaining our communities.

We bring people together by celebrating the big occasions and connecting the everyday moments. Australia belongs here. We bring our purpose to life via three shared values: We walk the talk, turn over every stone and keep it human.

This role functions at the cross-section of Nine’s Streaming services and data products. 9Now is Australia’s leading broadcast video on demand platform with almost half of all BVOD minutes watched on one of our apps.

You’ll work with a range of stakeholders across Commercial Sales, 9Now, Data Product and Engineering, and Research to own initiatives from requirements identification to value delivery. You will also have the opportunity to connect audience measurement information, such as content engagement and audience demographics with further data sets such as platform engagement and commercial performance to enable and drive unique insight that informs short

- Drive engagement with external stakeholders (e.g. ratings agencies) to clarify requirements, confirm solution approach and to inform priorities
- Use data to identify actionable insights
- Demonstrate your problem solving abilities by driving and resolving issues that require cross-team investigation
