About JHC Consulting JHC Consulting is a remote advisory firm whose work sits closer to judgment, review, and decision support than to routine execution. The work is often analytical in nature, but not in a purely mechanical sense. It involves examining information carefully, understanding what it supports and what it does not, and helping bring structure to material that may initially be incomplete, uneven, or difficult to interpret. We are looking for a Junior Data Analyst who wants to build strong analytical habits in a setting where clarity, precision, and professional discipline matter. About the role This is not a role built around producing dashboards for appearance alone, and it is not a volume-based reporting function. It is better suited to someone who is thoughtful with information, patient with detail, and able to work carefully without losing sight of the wider question. You would support analytical work across research, review, and decision-support assignments. Some of the work may begin with raw data, spreadsheets, background materials, or fragmented inputs that need to be cleaned up and organized before they become useful. In other cases, the task may be to check whether figures align, whether assumptions are being relied upon too casually, or whether a summary is actually supported by the material behind it. This is a junior position, but not one where you are expected to operate carelessly just because you are early in your career. We are interested in people who take accuracy seriously, think before they conclude, and understand that useful analysis often comes from reducing confusion rather than adding unnecessary complexity. What you would do In this role, you may be involved in: reviewing datasets, spreadsheets, and supporting materials cleaning and organizing information into usable working files checking figures, categories, and source consistency preparing summary tables, structured notes, and analytical support materials identifying gaps, anomalies, inconsistencies, or weak comparisons helping transform scattered information into clear and usable analysis supporting internal and client-facing work where the factual basis matters The work is likely to appeal to someone who finds satisfaction in making material clearer, more ordered, and more reliable. What we are looking for You do not need to have done everything before. What matters more is the way you work. We would expect a strong candidate to have: good working knowledge of Excel or Google Sheets basic SQL skills confidence handling structured data with care strong attention to detail clear written English a disciplined approach to checking accuracy the ability to stay organized when material is messy or incomplete You should be comfortable noticing when something does not look right, and willing to verify rather than assume. Helpful background Experience can come from a range of places. This may include: university coursework academic research internships freelance assignments personal projects an early role involving reporting, research, operations, or analysis Experience with tools such as Power BI, Tableau, Looker Studio, or similar platforms may be useful, but it is not the main point of the role. We are less interested in polished tool lists than in whether you can handle information responsibly and think with care. What kind of person tends to do well here This role is likely to suit someone who: does not rush to conclusions prefers careful work over performative busyness can stay patient when working through detail understands that presentation is secondary to substance wants to develop real analytical discipline early in their career It is a strong fit for someone who wants more than surface-level reporting work and is interested in building the foundations of serious professional judgment. What the role offers This position offers: fully remote work exposure to analytical assignments where precision matters meaningful early-career responsibility a professional environment that values clarity over noise the chance to strengthen research, analytical structure, and judgment through real work For the right candidate, this role is a strong starting point. It offers the opportunity to build careful habits, strengthen analytical judgment, and contribute to work where accuracy is taken seriously. If you are early in your career and want to develop as an analyst in a setting that values substance, care, and clear thinking, we would be interested in hearing from you.
