I will be handing over our raw sales data and need a skilled analyst to turn it into actionable insight. Because the dataset is centred strictly on sales figures, you’ll have freedom to decide which techniques—trend discovery, customer segmentation, sales forecasting, or a combination—will uncover the most value. Feel free to work in Python (pandas, scikit-learn), R, SQL, or any tool you prefer; just be ready to walk me through the workflow so I can reproduce it later. I can supply the data in whichever format you find most convenient—CSV, Excel, or a direct database export. Let me know your preference up front. Deliverables • Cleaned and well-documented dataset • Analysis notebook or script with comments • Visual summaries (charts or dashboards) that a non-technical stakeholder can grasp quickly • Brief written report highlighting key findings, recommended actions, and any limitations I’m happy to structure the work in milestones (e.g., initial data audit, exploratory analysis, final report) so you’re paid as each stage is approved. Accuracy, clarity, and an eye for commercial impact will be the main acceptance criteria.
