Senior Analyst, Partnerships

CURRENT ROOT EMPLOYEES - Please apply using the career page in Workday. This career site is for external applicants only.

As part of Root's interview process, we kindly ask that all candidates be on camera for virtual interviews. This helps us create a more personal and engaging experience for both you and our interviewers. Being on camera is a standard requirement for our process and part of how we assess fit and communication style, so we do require it to move forward with any applicant's candidacy. If you have any concerns, feel free to let us know once you are contacted. We’re happy to talk it through.

The Opportunity
 

At Root, we’re on a mission to improve the lives of our customers by offering better insurance solutions. We challenge ourselves to think differently in order to reimagine insurance to make it smarter, more equitable, and a better experience for all.

We strive to “unbreak” the archaic insurance industry by using data and technology in innovative new ways. We believe we must be steadfast in our commitment to research, experimentation, and disciplined data-driven decision making in order to build products our customers love. Analytics sits at the center of our vision. 

As a Senior Analyst, you will partner with the Business Development team to achieve growth, provide data insights, and develop data driven strategies in B2B2C relationships. As a "full stack" analyst, you will analyze Partner facing products and Partner business performance through research, forecasting, and metric/report designing. Partnerships growth is a top initiative and your access to data and exposure to senior leaders will allow you to have a meaningful impact on the business at large. You are expected to be an independent thinker who seeks out opportunities and challenges Root’s current methods.

Root is a “work where it works best” company, meaning we will support you working in whatever location that works best for you across the US. We will continue to have our headquarters in Columbus to give more flexibility and more choice about how we live and work.
