Junior Analytics Assistant

Management work often becomes cluttered with unnecessary meetings and vague priorities. At Olive Tree Consulting, we help leadership teams remove that friction by focusing on practical habits. We are looking for a Junior Analytics Assistant to help us organize and interpret the data behind these team behaviors. This role is a fully remote position that supports our ongoing advisory work with a leading Brussels-based organisation. You will help us track how decisions move through their groups and identify where their daily rhythms can be simplified.

About Olive Tree Consulting
Olive Tree Consulting is a focused advisory practice based in Italy. We work with leadership teams when their internal processes have become more difficult than they should be. We do not believe in massive transformation programmes: instead, we favor small, useful changes that people can actually maintain. Our team is fully remote and intentionally small. We value clarity, plain language, and the kind of written records that help people remember what was decided. The goal of our work is a simpler management pattern that stays in place long after our engagement ends.

About the role
In this entry level position, you will support our consultants by turning messy operational data into clear, readable records. You will look at how teams spend their time, how projects stall, and where responsibilities are unclear. While our firm is based in Italy, this remote role is tied to our current expansion of support for a client in Belgium. You will spend your week organizing spreadsheets, drafting summaries of team activity, and helping us map out the movement of work within a large organization. This is a role for someone who finds satisfaction in bringing order to information.

What you will do

• Organize raw data from client tools into structured spreadsheets for our consulting team.
• Create simple tables and charts that show patterns in meeting attendance and project timelines.
• Draft short, plain-English summaries regarding weekly progress on data collection.
• Identify common points of friction where tasks seem to get stuck between departments.
• Maintain our internal database of client observations to ensure all records are current.
• Review communication logs to help us understand how often teams are checking in on priorities.
• Support the creation of final reports by ensuring all numbers and data points are accurate.

What we are looking for

• An interest in learning how management teams operate and how to solve operational problems.
• A habit of double-checking work for accuracy before sharing it with the team.
• Comfort working in a fully remote setting where most communication happens in writing.
• The ability to follow a set process while suggesting small ways to make it more efficient.

Employment setup
This is a permanent, full-time, fully remote role. Although Olive Tree Consulting is an Italian entity, this position is open to candidates from any location who can work within European time zones (CET/EET). This is not a local office position and does not require relocation. The engagement is a remote position with a full-time workload. No fees are required to apply or begin work. Candidates must be comfortable with GDPR and confidentiality obligations, as you will be handling sensitive internal data for our clients.
Making work easier to lead is a deliberate choice. It requires looking closely at what people are actually doing and removing the habits that do not help. We look for colleagues who understand that a clear, simple record is often the best way to help a team move forward with confidence.
