• Proven ability to collaborate across technical and business functions, ensuring solutions are both technically sound and strategically relevant.
• Exceptional storytelling and communication skills, able to bring data to life and influence senior stakeholders through compelling narratives.
• Demonstrated ability to quantify and communicate value, linking analytics outputs directly to commercial or operational outcomes.
• Strong business acumen and curiosity, with an understanding of how analytics drives performance and growth.
• A collaborative mindset and continuous learning approach, with an interest in emerging data technologies and analytical techniques.

What You’ll Love

• Working at the intersection of business, data, and technology to solve complex challenges and deliver tangible impact.
• Partnering with expert teams across the data ecosystem to shape and scale analytical capability.
• A culture that values pace, curiosity, and collaboration, where insight leads to action and results are measured.
