## About this task

This expense management software company for freelancers (5,000+ employees) is looking for a senior Data Analyst for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. A specific business question answered with data and a short write-up.

The work is too small to justify a hire and too important to leave to chance. It operates in regulated payments and lending, so a written trail for every decision matters.

The work is fully remote. Any location in United Kingdom works, with a few hours of overlap with the team's day. Evenings or weekends are fine, as long as the agreed weekly output is there. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (UK time).

## What you deliver

- Find out why trial-to-paid conversion fell in September: segment by channel and plan and write one page.

- A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer

- The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed

- One round of edits after the company's review is included

## How the work runs

- Day 1: kickoff call and access to the files

- Days 2 to 5: the work, with questions answered the same day

- Last day: delivery and a short walkthrough

**Duration:** 1 to 2 weeks. Accepted on the company's written OK. If something is missed, you fix it in the same week at no extra charge to either side.

## Tools

SQL Excel Python

## Who fits

- 5-10 years of hands-on work as a Data Analyst, or the equivalent mix of roles

- Comfortable working in SQL, Excel and Python

- Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate

### Nice to have

- Comfortable explaining numbers or decisions to a non-specialist reader

- Has worked with a distributed team across time zones

## Not included

- Travel or work at a fixed location

- On-call availability outside the agreed window

- Managing other contractors or employees

## How you get paid

- The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice.

- Deftridge pays you in GBP after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable. The payment date is written in your task agreement.

- You work as an independent contractor: you report your own income, and your recruiter sends the statements your accountant needs.

- You never chase the company. Questions about money go to Deftridge.
