Harborside Advisors helps manufacturers cut downtime and scrap through lean, Six Sigma and plant layout work. Our consultants implement and support ERP systems, mostly SAP, Oracle NetSuite and Microsoft Dynamics.

Harborside Advisors is hiring an Insight Analyst (Operations) to work remotely from Bangladesh. We want an analyst who is comfortable pushing back when the numbers don't support the conclusion. You'll own a set of dashboards and the data behind them, and be the go-to person when someone asks why a number looks off. We are headquartered in Newark and have been hiring remotely since 2020. You will join as an independent contractor on a long-term agreement. Payment is monthly in USD. Expect to work a schedule that overlaps with US Eastern business hours until about noon ET. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.
