About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Owning metric integrity — defining and governing what our numbers actually mean, so no one downstream is making a call off a flawed definition or a dodgy query.
Acting as the quality gate on AI-generated analysis — checking the logic, validating the output, and catching errors before they ever reach a stakeholder.
Designing and interpreting A/B tests — setting the success metrics, sizing the sample properly, and knowing when a result is underpowered rather than just running with it.
Diagnosing what's actually driving commercial performance — why revenue is moving, where leads are dropping out of the funnel, which segments are underperforming — and turning that into a structured investigation with real hypotheses.
Turning analysis into action — sizing the commercial impact, laying out the trade-offs, and helping the business decide what to do differently, then tracking whether it worked.
Building interactive dashboards and self-serve tools that keep stakeholders oriented day-to-day, without an analyst needing to be in the loop every time.

Requirements

What you’ll need

A track record across all three layers — not just producing analysis, but diagnosing the cause and driving the action that actually changed the outcome.
The analytical foundation to sense-check AI-generated work — fluency with SQL and data concepts, so you know when an output is wrong before anyone else spots it.
Experience designing experiments and turning statistical findings into commercial recommendations that hold up under scrutiny.
A knack for explaining complex findings to non-technical audiences in a way that actually moves a decision — experience in a marketplace, subscription or lead-generation business, or with tools like Python, Tableau or Looker, is a bonus rather than a must.
