Digital Marketing Google Analytics Contractor

About OHO

OHO is a digital agency full of smart, curious learners who love solving complex problems for higher ed organizations. We bring deep expertise and a consultative mindset to everything we do—asking the right questions, challenging assumptions when needed, and always keeping our clients’ goals at the center. 

About the Role

We're looking for an exceptional Google Analytics Contractor to support client engagements on an as-needed basis. This remote, independent contractor opportunity is ideal for someone with deep expertise in Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager, backed by years of hands-on experience implementing, configuring, and optimizing analytics environments, particularly Google Analytics 4 (GA4).

The ideal contractor has a proven track record of designing comprehensive measurement strategies, building reliable tracking implementations, and translating data into meaningful insights. Just as importantly, you'll be comfortable collaborating with both internal teams and clients, communicating technical concepts clearly, and contributing to high-quality digital marketing engagements.

Contractors are engaged on a project-by-project basis as client needs arise. Typical engagements range from 8 to 32 hours over the course of 2 to 4 weeks, though project scope and duration may vary.

If you enjoy solving complex analytics challenges, partnering with talented teams, and building a long-term relationship with an organization that values its contractors, we'd love to hear from you.

Please Note:

This is not a full-time or part-time employee position. OHO is building a network of trusted Google Analytics contractors to support current and future client engagements. As business needs evolve, contractors who consistently deliver exceptional work may be considered for future full-time employment opportunities, if available. The hourly rate for this contract position typically pays between $75-$80/hour.
