About The Position

The Market Analysis team is Apple Retail Real Estate’s strategic and quantitative intelligence function — we build the frameworks, tools, and analyses that inform where Apple invests in its 500+ store fleet globally. We combine rigorous measurement with strategic insight to shape how leadership thinks about market opportunity, fleet composition, and capital allocation.

This role will be a key part of that shift: building and adopting new tools to modernize ways of working.

• Demonstrated ability to simplify complex issues and deliver content clearly in written, oral, and formal presentation formats for senior and executive audiences
• Experience building or actively using AI tools to automate analytical workflows
• Proficiency in SQL for data access, manipulation, and validation
• Bachelor’s degree
