Sr. Analyst, User Generated Content (UGC) Online Operations

Position Purpose:

The Sr. Analyst role will join the UGC Online Operations program (User Generated Content). The UGC analyst will support the backend operations of collection, analyzation, distribution, and display of both Ratings & Review and Question & Answers on 3.5M PIP pages on the site.

Review Collection:

The analyst will support our existing channels for collecting new product reviews – the end to end operations of our free product sampling program: offering free product to a select community of customers, through fulfillment and review submission (SEEDs) that targets newly onboarded products, the Post-Purchase Product Review Request email (PPC) that sends ~25M emails per month to verified THD purchasers requesting a product review, and the review submission channels through Mobile App and Desktop PIP. The analyst will assess performance, monitor health, remove friction, and support the creation and rollout of brand new review submission channels.

Review Analyzation:

The analyst will execute deep dive analyses on review submission trends and coverage gaps that are critical to maintaining optimal product review collection and coverage on our site. The analyst will execute ad hoc investigations in the event of operational breakdowns and identify root causes.

Data Distribution and Enablement:

The analyst will assist in enabling partners with access to UGC data and distributing UGC data based on insight and trend to partner teams. The analyst will drive enablement of UGC best practices with key stakeholders. The analyst will function as the SME to UGC reporting, databases, and data feeds in the UGC space and partner to enable stakeholders to access it.

Reviews Display:

The analyst will support the relationship with PIP product management on function of existing display features with UGC (i.e – sorting and searching content on PIP) and support the business cases for developing innovative features (i.e MagicApron Review Summarization). The analyst will track engagement and conversion KPIs on PIP with UGC content and will connect the lift back to our review collection strategies and gaps.

Questions & Answer Collection and Operations:

The analyst will analyze the performance of our Q&A program and make suggestions for SOP improvements. A top pain-point in the UGC space is to enable suppliers to quickly answer customer questions on PIP at scale. The analyst will monitor unanswered questions, answered questions as it relates to conversion, and processes that alert suppliers of unanswered questions.
