Director of Data

We are hiring a Director of Data for a PE-backed, global rewards and marketing analytics business operating at scale with major international clients.

This is a hands-on leadership role focused on maximising the value of an established data and analytics platform, not defining strategy from scratch. The Role

You will lead a small data and analytics function, driving execution of an existing roadmap and helping the business extract greater commercial value from its data products.

Key focus areas:

• Turning data into commercial insight and client value
• Driving adoption of analytics and data products
• Supporting development of predictive and advanced analytics capability
• Improving data literacy and stakeholder engagement
• Working closely with product, engineering, and commercial teams

Tech Stack

• Snowflake
• SQL
• Python
• Mixpanel
• BI / visualisation tools (in transition)

• Strong background in analytics / BI / advanced analytics
• Hands-on with data (SQL and ideally Python)
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
• Experience working in fast-paced, delivery-focused environments
• Comfortable operating in a small, hands-on leadership structure

Nice to Have

• Loyalty, rewards, marketing analytics or consultancy experience
• Exposure to AI or predictive analytics
• Experience in global or multi-market organisations

This is not a large team leadership role - it requires someone who is hands-on, commercially minded, and able to influence without building a large function. Why Apply

• PE-backed business in growth phase
• Opportunity to shape high-impact data products used by global brands
• Strong visibility with senior stakeholders
• Real focus on turning data into commercial outcomes
