Junior Market Data Analyst – Chartering

Join Kpler as a Junior Market Data Analyst, focusing on data accuracy in chartering operations within the maritime sector.

• Monitor, validate and improve the quality of key datasets supporting Kpler's Chartering products.
• Investigate data gaps, inconsistencies and customer-reported issues, using data analysis to understand their root causes and drive them through to resolution.
• Curate and validate vessel ownership, commercial management, operator information and relevant vessel characteristics.
• Review and benchmark AI-parsed fixtures, identifying recurring extraction errors and building validation approaches to measure and improve parsing quality.
• Use SQL to query large datasets, including cargo and AIS data, to investigate potential issues and identify incorrect or inconsistent information at scale.
• Use Python notebooks to extract, transform and analyse data and develop validation scripts and repeatable quality checks.
• Maintain and improve Kpler's chartering-specific shipping zones and geographical mappings, using tools such as QGIS.
• Work with Product, Data, Research, Engineering and AI/ML teams to provide structured feedback and help improve the quality of underlying datasets and extraction processes.
• Translate individual data-quality issues into systematic improvements where appropriate, identifying patterns rather than only correcting individual records.
• Contribute to the development of new analytical views and algorithms as the Chartering product evolves, including areas such as CPP/DPP and projected vessels.
• Help establish and track data-quality metrics, benchmarks and processes as Chartering datasets expand.

• Understanding of shipping, chartering or commodity markets.
• Familiarity with tanker and/or dry-bulk vessel segments.
• Understanding of concepts such as fixtures, vessel positions, cargo orders, vessel ownership and shipping geography.
• Experience working with AI/LLM-extracted or other machine-generated datasets.
• Experience with maritime data providers, brokers, shipowners, charterers or commodity trading companies.
