Advanced Data Insights Analyst II, Vacation Rentals
Introduction to Team:
Vrbo, a global leader in vacation rentals and part of the Expedia Group, is seeking an Advanced Data Insights Analyst II to join our Vacation Rentals Analytics team. This role is critical to influencing strategic decision-making across global supply-side operations. You’ll be at the intersection of data, business strategy, and leadership — driving insights that have direct and measurable business impact.
Make an Impact:
We’re looking for someone who is highly analytical, self-directed, and proactive — someone who thrives in ambiguity, is driven to get answers, and can tell compelling stories with data. Ideally, you’ll bring SQL expertise, a working knowledge (or willingness to quickly learn) Tableau, and a passion for the travel industry.
In this role, you will:
Own and lead analysis for multiple OKRs (Objectives & Key Results) that directly impact business growth.
Deep dive into data to uncover drivers of performance, develop recommendations, and communicate findings clearly to senior leadership.
Present bi-weekly insights and progress to leadership teams, including metric deep dives and strategic suggestions.
Be a self-starter who actively seeks data, connects with stakeholders across Slack or meetings, and fills in gaps without needing hand-holding.
Frame ambiguous business questions into structured analytical problems and actionable insights.
Independently extract, manipulate, and analyze data from multiple sources using SQL and/or other tools.
Learn and apply Tableau to build impactful dashboards and visualizations (if not already experienced).
Apply statistical methods such as regression, clustering, time series forecasting, etc., where applicable.
Collaborate cross-functionally with strategy, marketing, product, and engineering teams.
Stay current with industry trends, especially in travel, hospitality, or marketplace dynamics.
Experience and Qualifications:
Bachelor’s or Master’s in a technical or quantitative field (e.g., Engineering, Statistics, Business Analytics, Mathematics, Computer Science, or similar).
Strong SQL skills are essential — you should be comfortable writing complex queries and working with large-scale data.
Familiar with Tableau (or quick to learn) and comfortable building data visualizations.
Strong analytical toolkit: statistical methods, scenario modeling, A/B testing, or predictive modeling experience.
Business-savvy and interested in learning or expanding knowledge in the travel or vacation rental space.
Demonstrated experience working independently and driving analyses from ideation to executive presentation.
Excellent communication skills — able to translate technical details into business language.
Self-motivated, curious, and unafraid to ask questions or dig deep to find answers.
Comfortable with Python, R, or similar languages for deeper analysis (preferred but not required).
Bonus Points
Experience working in the travel, hospitality, or marketplace space.
Previous OKR ownership or strategic metric accountability.
Proven track record of delivering insights that influenced executive decisions.
Starting pay for this role will vary based on multiple factors, including location, available budget, and an individual’s knowledge, skills, and experience. Pay ranges may be modified in the future.
