Data Analyst - Agriculture
We are looking for an ambitious data analyst passionate about sustainability and data-driven business.
EmploymentIn this role, you’ll work on a cross-functional team and interact with users and data providers to develop and expand the Agriculture, Fishery, and Animal Husbandry sectors of the ecoinvent database.

The ideal candidate brings strong critical thinking skills and a problem-solving attitude. You are proactive, structured, and organized.
