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.
