What skills are most important for a job like yours?
I would say being a self-starter and self-motivated is one of the biggest and most crucial parts of this kind of job. You won't really have a lot of guidance early on, so you'll have to want to go get it and figure out and learn more within your role.
As for hard skills, I would say SQL and Python are two really big ones to be familiar with, as well as data visualization.
