Great teams can do truly transformative things. We’re talking leading-edge work that makes a major impact. Of course, any great team needs a capable leader, someone who takes a hands-on approach to help propel the team forward.

At Cox Communications, we’re looking for a Senior Data Scientist, a core member of our Consumer Analytics team supporting marketing analytics. The ideal candidate will help unlock the full power of our data by building and enhancing our statistical and machine learning modeling capabilities to influence various parts of the customer lifecycle including lead management, customer acquisition, retention, upsell, and engagement.

• Develop advanced analytical models and solutions via transformation, statistical analysis, data exploration, visualization, and optimization to solve complex business challenges.

• Use foundational data science methodologies to identify relationships/drivers of key metrics as it relates to marketing objectives

• Support the team in mapping out customer journeys and developing activation opportunities from our lead management data sources

• Gain a deep understanding of our data, including data sources, architecture, and systems

• Work cross functionally to define problem statement, create long term vision and build/apply machine learning models when appropriate

• Manage vendor and cross-functional relationships, as well as organize and extract value from external data assets

• Work with the team to help develop and automate models

• Apply advanced visualization methods to provide key insights from models and share those with our leadership team

• Influence others through expertise and insights

• Keep on top of the latest trends in the industry to research and apply new analytical methods

• We want you to feel cared for and respected (like you do with our customers), and that starts with Cox’s highly competitive pay and other compensation perks (401k + company matching, comprehensive medical benefits, etc.). We also offer tuition reimbursement for academic pursuits, adoption assistance, paid time off to volunteer, childcare and eldercare resources, pet insurance and much more.

• Good work should be rewarded, and not just with a healthy paycheck.

At Cox, you’ll find a workplace where relationships are crafted with care and successes are celebrated with high fives. We strive to create an environment where you can do you, and everyone from leadership to new hires can support and feel supported.
