Arabian Private Holdings
Associate Data Analyst
Job Description
ABOUT THE ROLE
The Associate Data Analyst role at Arabian Private Holdings exists to translate complex datasets into clear, defensible logic for our firm and its clients. You will provide the quantitative foundation for our advice, specifically supporting an ongoing mandate with a Manchester-based infrastructure organization to help them structure their operational reporting. This position is necessary to ensure our principals can form a view based on rigorous facts rather than intuition alone.
ABOUT ARABIAN PRIVATE HOLDINGS
Arabian Private Holdings was established on the premise that critical business problems do not require large consulting teams or bloated methodology decks. We work with a limited number of holding companies, family groups, and government entities to provide honest, independent advice on governance and operating model efficiency. Our firm is principal-led, meaning the people who analyze the data are the same people who present the findings to the board. We operate as a fully remote firm, focusing our resources on the quality of our analysis and the strength of our client relationships rather than traditional office overhead or aggressive expansion targets.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
As an Associate Data Analyst, you will be responsible for supporting active mandates by collecting and organizing messy data from various client sources. You will also help form a view on the performance of specific assets within a client portfolio, conduct research on market trends within the infrastructure and utility sectors, and clean and structure internal datasets to improve the speed of our decision making. Additionally, you will draft clear, concise summaries of data findings that avoid jargon and focus on clarity, monitor key performance indicators for holding companies to identify long-term trends, assist in the review of corporate governance frameworks, and collaborate with our principals to refine our analytical approach for specific client problems.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
To be successful in this role, you will need a high degree of curiosity regarding how large organizations and infrastructure projects function. You should be able to explain a complex dataset in simple, plain English without relying on buzzwords, and demonstrate logical rigor and the intellectual honesty to admit when the data does not support a current hypothesis. Basic familiarity with spreadsheets and a structured approach to problem solving are also essential. You should also have a preference for clarity over complexity in all written and numerical work, and the self-discipline to manage tasks and meet deadlines in a fully remote setting.
WHY REMOTE
Our firm operates entirely remotely, which allows us to find the best talent regardless of where they are located. We value output and precision over traditional corporate rituals. As this is an entry-level role, you will work closely with our principals, receiving direct feedback on your work and your reasoning.
BENEFITS
This role offers direct involvement in high-level strategy and governance mandates for significant regional entities, professional development through close mentorship from experienced firm principals, the autonomy of a fully remote role with a focus on results rather than hours spent at a desk, a working environment that prioritizes evidence-based analysis and clear communication, and attractive and competitive pay for an entry-level position in the data analysis field.
