Sr. Analyst, Market Strategy And Competitive Insights

At Wayfair, we're redefining how people discover and shop for their homes. To stay ahead in the home goods space, we rely on sharp insights into our competitive landscape. The Market Strategy & Competitive Insights team powers those insights, ensuring leadership has the data and analysis needed to make strategic decisions. CompIntel acquires and structures data on competitor activity, pricing, and market share including exact and similar competitor product matches, competitor price indices, and competitive share analysis via 3rd-party credit card and POS data. These insights directly guide pricing, category management, and our broader commercial strategy. We're looking for a Sr. Analyst to help analyze competitor landscape trends, inform our market approach, and shape Wayfair's growth. This is a high-visibility role with exposure up to the C-suite, offering the chance to directly influence how Wayfair competes and wins in the market.

What You'll Do

• Own and enhance our share tracking indices (e.g., Yipit home pureplay index, broad catalog competitor cuts) to track Wayfair's market position vs. Amazon, Walmart, Target, Home Depot, Lowe's, and Costco. Your insights will directly inform pricing and assortment strategies.
• Use 3rd-party data sources (credit card, POS data from Circana, GfK) and internal product / order data to identify pricing trends, market shifts, and opportunities for growth.
• Collaborate closely with Pricing and Category Management teams. Share actionable insights in Weekly and Monthly Business Reviews (WBRs and MBRs), ensuring alignment with Commercial and Business Trends leadership.
• Manage OKRs for the CompIntel Strategy & Ops team and ensure alignment with Tech Leadership and other partners.
• Prioritize and drive new competitor match acquisition efforts, identifying the most effective ways to expand Wayfair's competitive intelligence toolkit.
