The role plays a key part in translating tracking requirements into robust GTM implementations that support analytics, experimentation, and advertising use cases.

  • Collaborate with Engineering, Product, Analytics, and Activation teams to embed tagging into delivery processes.
  • Identify tracking gaps, issues, or risks, escalating where appropriate with clear evidence.
  • Adhere to data privacy, consent, and regulatory requirements, ensuring tagging implementations follow approved patterns.

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience implementing digital tracking using Google Tag Manager.
  • Understanding of event-based data collection for analytics and/or advertising purposes.
  • Experience with enterprise Digital Analytics tools, ideally Amplitude.
  • Experience working with data layers, events, and front-end implementations.
  • Strong attention to detail and disciplined approach to validation and QA.
  • Experience with using Javascript to collect and manipulate data from front end applications.
