Demand for Analyst roles
New Analyst postings at the employers we follow are up 19% over the last 5 weeks compared with the 5 before.
Each bar is one week of new postings. The darkest bars are the last 5 weeks.
Counted from the hiring pages we’ve followed for at least five weeks, so employers we add don’t look like growth. Updated weekly.
About the role
We file this job under Analyst, by the work the posting describes.
Analysts answer business questions with data. They pull numbers with SQL, build reports and dashboards, and explain what changed and why to the people making decisions.
Most postings ask for SQL, spreadsheets, a dashboard tool such as Tableau or Power BI, and clear writing.
Unlike a data scientist, an analyst mostly explains what happened rather than building models that predict what will.
Job description
The MSBA is a quasi-independent government authority which grants funding for school building construction and renovation projects. The MSBA is pleased to provide a Co-Op opportunity to help students learn about data analysis in the building and construction industry. We are seeking a Capital Planning Assistant to provide a great opportunity to learn and gain skills in data analysis and construction.
Students can expect to be challenged by their assigned projects, connect with other MSBA departments,
feel valued by the MSBA community, while gaining experience and exposure to designer selection and
interviews, preliminary design evaluations, and feasibility analyses. Not only will the selected Co-op learn
about their day-to-day tasks through their specific work assignments, but they will have exposure to our
organizational leaders and their teams through a series of internal Capital Planning Training. A Co-Op
position at the MSBA provides exposure to a range of design and construction firms actively engaged in
publicly funded school projects. Most Co-Ops move on to job opportunities within the industry and even
return to MSBA when there is an open opportunity.
The Capital Planning Data Assistant (Co-op) is a full-time opportunity (up to six months) that will
temporarily provide support and assistance to Project Managers and Architects for Massachusetts public
school construction projects.
Responsibilities include data analysis, development of data tools, preparation of reports and
presentations, and support of technical review. The individual will also assist in developing tools for
information gathering and analysis of databases associated with cost-tracking, construction cost
estimates, capital project statuses and policy making, as well as potentially attending site visits. Interested
students should possess basic knowledge of data analysis and/or previous experience in data.

- Highly motivated and energetic
- Strong work ethic and tenacity
