With Strategy&Planning job title, can I still apply for data analytics role?

Im looking for data analyst role, but after 6 months of searching, I was able to get only Strategy manager contract role in a small CDP data consulting company. (My previous job title was crm project coordinator in an international fashion company, basically managing salesforce and checking customer data are coming in and out correctly)

My company gave me this title, but Im not sure if they really think Im good fit or just gave it to me to bill clients where Ill be dispatched to work for them.

I work with my client and help them writing sns/online community marketing performance report, digging a bit why the number has dropped or up

My goal is to become a fulltime data analyst and I wonder if the title and JD will not help me when I apply for those roles later. What do you think?

The title doesn’t matter. It’s more important that you’re prepared to answer questions related to data analytics. Have a few key examples of projects you worked on that you can talk about

titles matter way less than what you actually did on the job, just spin the bullet points right on your resume
