Job Description
Join a mission-driven, tech-led company as a Lead Data Analyst, working directly with the CEO to help shape the future of a platform used by millions. This is a standalone role offering a high level of trust, autonomy, and impact. You’ll be the go-to person for transforming questions into clear, data-led answers that drive strategic decisions.
The Role:
As Lead Data Analyst, you’ll sit at the intersection of data and leadership. Your work will guide priorities across a company that’s serious about making a positive impact in people’s daily lives, helping them solve real problems through simple, accessible technology.
You’ll take ownership of both recurring reporting and fast-turnaround exploratory analysis. Work is shaped around focused six-week planning cycles, and you’ll play a key role in identifying and solving the most impactful problems the business faces. This is a role for someone who thrives on working independently, enjoys solving problems, and is confident pulling clarity from ambiguity.
What You’ll Be Doing:
* Leading data analysis across the business as a standalone function.
* Turning vague or high-level questions into actionable insights.
* Extracting what people really need from a request, and shaping your own plan to get there.
* Using SQL to uncover insights in large datasets and communicate them simply.
* Building clear, impactful dashboards in Tableau that support decision-making.
* Maintaining key BI reporting, including platform and subscription health metrics.
* Aligning with stakeholders (particularly Product Managers) to guide prioritisation and support critical decision-making.
* Designing and evaluating experiments to help test assumptions and validate ideas.
* Working closely with the CEO and cross-functional teams to influence direction.
* Supporting six-week delivery cycles with timely, focused analysis.
* Occasionally travelling internationally, with full support for logistics and planning.
What You’ll Need to Succeed:
* Strong experience in analytics roles within digital or tech-enabled businesses.
* Confidence and hands-on experience using Tableau to build clear, impactful dashboards for business stakeholders (certifications or a portfolio would be a strong advantage)
* Advanced SQL skills, with the ability to write complex queries and work with large datasets
* Familiarity with Python, R or other scripting tools for deeper analysis.
* You’ll be the only analyst in this team, so working autonomously is key (you’ll be supported by Data Engineers to help access the data you need).
* A natural problem-solver who takes initiative and enjoys figuring things out.
* Strong communication skills and a willingness to speak to people to get the full picture.
* Able to take minimal input and shape a clear, useful output, without waiting to be told how.
What’s in It for You:
* A high-trust role working directly with the CEO on meaningful business questions.
* A mission-driven company focused on solving real-world problems at scale.
* Highly attractive salary package.
* Hybrid working pattern, typically 2 to 3 days per week in the office.
* Occasional international travel, fully supported.
