Vineyard Business Analyst

• Winemaking in some major regions of the world can be an ‘industrial’
• undertaking, but for us here at Iconic Wineries of British Columbia, every
• decision in the vineyard has a direct impact on the quality of what ultimately
• ends up in the bottle.

• Exceptional vineyards require more than great farming practices. They require
• clear insights, strong operational discipline, and the ability to understand the
• story behind the data.

• Our vineyards generate vast amounts of information every season, from labour and
• productivity metrics to purchasing activity, operational costs, vineyard
• performance trends, and planning data. The opportunity is no longer collecting
• data. It is transforming that information into meaningful insights that help our
• teams make better decisions.

The Role

• As our Vineyard Business Analyst, you will play a critical role in helping us
• better understand, measure, and optimize the performance of our vineyard
• operations. Sitting at the intersection of data, operations, finance, and
• viticulture, you will transform complex operational information into actionable
• insights that improve productivity, strengthen cost visibility, and support
• decision-making across our vineyards. This is a highly collaborative role that
• combines business analysis, operational reporting, procurement support, and data
• visualization. You will work closely with Vineyard Managers, operational
• leaders, and finance partners to uncover trends, identify opportunities, and
• build reporting tools that provide clarity across vineyard operations. More than
• a reporting role, this is an opportunity to bring a fresh perspective, challenge
• assumptions with data, and help shape how vineyard performance is measured and
• managed for years to come.

Productivity & Performance Analytics

• Measure and monitor vineyard productivity, labour efficiency, and operational

performance across activities, blocks, sites, and seasons.

• Analyze key operational metrics including hours per acre, cost per activity,

labour utilization, and year-over-year performance trends.

• Identify opportunities to improve efficiency, reduce waste, and support

continuous improvement initiatives.

• Translate complex operational data into practical recommendations that

vineyard leadership can act on.

• Support annual planning processes through productivity benchmarking,

workforce analysis, and operational forecasting.

• Develop meaningful performance indicators that help leaders understand

operational effectiveness and identify opportunities for improvement.

Data Visualization & Reporting

• Design and maintain dashboards and reporting tools that provide visibility

into vineyard performance and operational health.

• Transform data from multiple operational systems into meaningful business

insights.

• Develop reporting frameworks that allow teams to proactively identify trends,

risks, and opportunities.

• Present data in a clear and compelling way, helping stakeholders understand

the story behind the numbers.

• Ensure data integrity, consistency, and accessibility across vineyard

reporting processes.

• Create visualizations that simplify complex datasets and support informed

decision-making at all levels of the organization.

Financial Analysis & Cost Visibility

• Monitor vineyard operating costs and spending trends to improve financial

visibility across the organization.

• Partner with Finance and operational teams to improve cost reporting and

forecasting accuracy.

• Identify potential productivity or cost-related risks before they become

larger operational challenges.

• Maintain disciplined documentation and reporting standards that support

planning, budgeting, and operational decision-making.

• Help establish stronger cost controls and spending transparency across

vineyard operations.

Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

• Partner closely with Vineyard Managers, operational leaders, finance teams,

vendors, and stakeholders across the business.

• Build trusted relationships while introducing new ways of measuring and

evaluating operational performance.

• Support the development of data-driven processes that improve consistency and

operational discipline across vineyard operations.

• Bring curiosity, fresh thinking, and a continuous improvement mindset to help

evolve how work gets done.

• Contribute to a culture where decisions are informed by data, insight, and

transparency.

• Act as a bridge between operational teams and data, ensuring insights

translate into meaningful action.

Who You Are

• Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Economics, Data Analytics, Supply

Chain, Agriculture, or a related discipline.

• 2+ years of experience in business analysis, operational analytics, financial

analysis, supply chain, procurement, or a similar analytical role.

• Advanced Excel skills with strong capabilities in data manipulation,

reporting, and analysis.

• Experience with data visualization platforms such as Power BI, Tableau, or

similar reporting tools.

• Strong analytical mindset with the ability to transform data into actionable

recommendations.

• Comfortable working with both operational and financial datasets in a

fast-paced environment.

• Strong communication skills with the ability to influence stakeholders

through data and insights.

• Experience in agriculture, wine, food manufacturing, supply chain, logistics,

or operational environments is considered an asset, but not required.

• Naturally curious, detail-oriented, and motivated by solving problems and

improving processes.

• Able to translate complex information into simple, practical business

recommendations.
