The Global Data Analyst will use large, diverse, cross-country datasets to build foundational data products that enable better decision-making across the organization. This role will focus on creating high-quality, self-service BI dashboards and reports that are trusted, scalable, and widely used in service of our mission: bigger harvests, healthier families, and richer soil for smallholder farmers. We have a strong culture of constant learning and we invest in developing our people. You’ll have weekly check-ins with your manager, access to mentorship and training programs, and regular feedback on your performance. We hold career reviews every six months, and set aside time to discuss your aspirations and career goals. You’ll have the opportunity to shape a growing organization and build a rewarding long-term career.

  • Ensure dashboards and reports are accurate, well-documented, and built for long-term sustainability.
  • Monitor adoption and continuously improve usability and relevance.
  • Serve as the primary analyst for specific data domains (e.g. Finance, People, Supply Chain, etc.).
  • Deeply understand business processes and logic within those domains.
  • Own the full delivery of dashboards and data analytics products: make prioritization decisions, understand user needs, wireframe and design outputs, own delivery and iteration.
  • Partner closely with Data Engineers to ensure business rules are embedded in the warehouse and semantic layer.
  • Clearly communicate data limitations and ensure metric consistency.
  • Contribute to and help lead a community of practice for embedded analysts.
  • Codify and uphold standards for dashboard design, documentation, governance, and metric definition.
  • Support adoption of best practices in BI development and data storytelling.

Requirements, Qualifications and Competences

  • 3+ years of experience in data analytics or BI development.
  • Strong SQL skills; working knowledge of Python or R preferred.
  • Experience building automated data workflows and scalable dashboards in BI tools (Superset, Power BI, Dataiku preferred).
  • User-Centric Data Design: Proven ability to practice stakeholder empathy moving beyond simple requirements-gathering to deeply understand the operational context of our users
  • Understanding of data modeling concepts and semantic layers.
  • Ability to translate complex business logic into clear, usable data products.
  • Experience with data storytelling and communicating insights to diverse audiences.
  • English fluency. Other useful languages are Swahili, Kinyarwanda, Kirundi, and French

About One Acre Fund

One Acre Fund is an agricultural service provider that supports Africa's smallholder farmers to build resilient communities.

More than 50 million families in Sub-Saharan Africa earn a living from small farms, which produce 80 percent of the continent’s food. But harvests still lag far behind the rest of the world. We supply the financing and training these farmers need to grow their way out of hunger and build lasting pathways to prosperity.

Instead of giving handouts, we invest in farmers to help them increase their yields and their profits. When farmers become more productive, they help feed healthy communities and create thriving economies.
