Marketing Business Analyst

Marketing Business Analyst

From Fivetran's founding until now, our mission has remained the same: to make access to data as simple and reliable as electricity. With Fivetran, customer data arrives in their warehouses, canonical and ready to query, with no engineering or maintenance required. We're proud that more organizations continue to leverage our technology every day to become truly data-driven.

Fivetran is building data pipelines to power the modern data stack for thousands of companies.

We're looking for a Marketing Business Analyst who will sit at the intersection of B2B marketing strategy and performance analytics, owning clarity and rigor around how we invest and what those investments are delivering. You'll help marketing leadership see around the corners by digging into what is driving pipeline, where our investment mix is over- or under-weighted, and how performance trends should inform future spend decisions.

You'll own the reporting layer of the marketing measurement framework, translating attribution methodology defined by Marketing Ops into clear, decision-ready insights. This includes preparing weekly business review materials for VP+ stakeholders and building reporting that connects spend, pipeline, and ROI across channels and programs.

Beyond reporting what happened, you'll diagnose why it happened and recommend where and how we should adjust investment. You'll partner across demand generation, field marketing, product marketing, and digital to bring financial and performance discipline to program evaluation, budget allocation, and hypothesis-driven experimentation.

This is a high-visibility role with direct exposure to marketing leadership, requiring strong analytical skills, business judgment, and a deep understanding of how B2B marketing drives revenue.

This is a full-time, hybrid position based out of our Oakland or Denver offices. Our hybrid work model offers a blend of remote flexibility and in-person collaboration, including two days in the office each week to connect and build as a team.
