Brian J\u00e4ger is a Data Analyst at Valora and a chocolatier. An interesting combination that was born from his thirst for knowledge. When going to a first-class restaurant, he always wondered how the sweet temptations on the dessert trolley were prepared. At Valora he juggles mountains of data and designs strategies. Every now and again, he sweetens life in the office for his colleagues with his sweet delights.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abI help people find what they’re looking for.\u00bb<\/em><\/p>This is how Brian J\u00e4ger would describe his job to a five-year old.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Data juggler and dessert lover at Valora<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

He has been working in Valora’s Customer Analytics team since February 2018. His simple explanation really means: \u00abI help the Valora Group to advertise more efficiently through its various formats and to save money.\u00bb He supports Valora in performance marketing and provides specialist information on Google-related topics. He also collaborates on various analytics and data science projects. \u00abI love my specialist areas and learn something new every day. Everything’s perfect!\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wants to know everything<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The urge to constantly learn new things and to develop further – this is what drives Brian J\u00e4ger every day. He’s someone who is always thirsty for more knowledge. \u00abI love this sensation of jumping over a hurdle in my mind, as if a light is suddenly switched on and I can see connections which I couldn’t see before,\u00bb he explains. He has been like this since childhood. \u00abMy mother called me Snoopy, which means ‘curious’. I was such a nosy parker that I often irritated the people around me.\u00bb He is still just as curious as ever. He wants to understand everything around him and learn something new every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
