About Blue Meridian

The firm you would be joining.

Blue Meridian Advisory is a founder-led e-commerce growth firm founded by three ex-Amazon leaders who built the category, compliance, and seller growth systems that Amazon’s best sellers run on. We bring that same operating discipline to mid-market consumer brands, running their growth across marketplaces, quick commerce, and D2C.

Between us we have more than 21 combined years inside Amazon and oversight of over $2B in marketplace GMS across five global markets. We are early-stage and fast-moving, which means you work directly with the founders, you see the whole picture, and the work you do shows up in the numbers quickly.

The Role

Why this role matters.

Every Blue Meridian engagement opens with an Opportunity Map, and that document lives or dies on the analysis behind it. You build it. Category sizing, competitive position, GMS projections, margin structure, the growth case. When a founder is across the table from a brand doing $10M, the model on the screen is yours.

This is the closest seat to revenue outside the founding team. The quality of your analysis decides how many pitches convert and how defensible our recommendations are once a client starts pressure-testing them.

What You’ll Do

The work itself.

Build the analysis behind every pitch: category sizing, competitor benchmarking, GMS and margin projections, growth scenarios.
Turn raw marketplace exports into structured decision inputs for consulting assignments.
Own the models: unit economics, advertising efficiency, pricing architecture, and every assumption underneath them.
Build and maintain client dashboards and the weekly reporting logic that feeds them.
Convert analysis into slides a founder can present without rebuilding the page.
Pressure-test the numbers before they leave the firm. Every claim in a proposal traces to a source.

What You’ll Bring

What a strong candidate looks like.

2 to 5 years at ZS Associates, Mu Sigma, or a comparable analytics consulting firm. Client-facing analytics, not internal BI reporting. If you are close to this and exceptional, we still want to hear from you.

Excel and Google Sheets at a level where the model is auditable, not just correct.
SQL, and a BI tool such as Power BI, Tableau, or Looker.
Structured problem framing. You turn an ambiguous question into a testable one before opening a spreadsheet.
Slide craft. You build the page, not just the chart.
The instinct to say when the data does not support the story the deck wants to tell.

Good to have: Python for analysis. E-commerce, retail, or CPG category exposure. Amazon or marketplace data. Pricing or trade-spend work.

Why This Role Is Different

Not another agency seat.

Founder access

You work directly with the three founding partners. No layers, no account managers between you and the people making the decisions.

Real accounts from day one

You manage live brand accounts immediately. The learning curve is steep and the exposure is real. You will not be parked on slideware.

Founder-led culture

We were operators before we were advisors. We care about the craft, we move on evidence, and we expect the same of you.

Building something early

We are early-stage with a clear trajectory. The people who join now help shape how the firm grows, and they grow with it.

How We Hire

Craft and character.

We hire on craft and character, not on keywords in a CV. Expect a direct conversation with the founders about the work you have done and the work you want to do. The process is quick, and you will always know where you stand.
