Full Job Description
đź“‹ Description
- • Own the end-to-end marketing analytics domain as a senior product leader, setting the roadmap, prioritizing initiatives, and aligning with marketing leadership and broader ZEAL strategy.
- • Lead a cross-functional team of analysts, data scientists, analytics engineers, and data engineers, fostering growth, protecting focus, and building internal capability rather than outsourcing.
- • Drive marketing measurement maturity by owning methodology decisions for MMM (Marketing Mix Modeling), attribution, and incrementality, including designing experiments and evaluating vendor solutions.
- • Act as the senior measurement authority for marketing performance, ensuring all investment decisions are grounded in defensible, data-driven insights and not just vendor outputs.
- • Treat marketing analytics as a portfolio of data products with defined owners, users, success metrics, and lifecycles—shifting from reactive reporting to proactive product ownership.
- • Maintain portfolio discipline across scope, risk, dependencies, and transparency, enabling executives to clearly understand priorities, trade-offs, and progress.
- • Partner with the Tech Lead spine on standards, architecture, and engineering practices, clearly owning the WHAT and WHY while respecting their ownership of the HOW.
- • Translate business ambition into structured, actionable plans, proactively managing stakeholder expectations and constructively saying no when capacity or strategic alignment requires it.
- • Ensure data is central to marketing planning, campaign analytics, performance reviews, and investment decisions, embedding analytics into the core of marketing decision-making.
- • Build and retain high-performing analytics teams by cultivating talent, setting clear expectations, and creating an environment where analytical rigor and innovation thrive.
- • Maintain fluency in marketing tech and AdTech stacks, understanding how systems generate the data used for analysis and how to leverage that understanding to improve product outcomes.
- • Communicate effectively with VP- and C-level executives, aligning senior leaders, pushing back constructively, and creating structure amid ambiguity or pressure.
- • Apply a product mindset to analytics, focusing on user needs, measurable outcomes, and product lifecycles rather than treating analytics as a queue of ad-hoc requests.
- • Drive accountability for outcomes, not activity, ensuring every initiative delivers measurable business impact tied to marketing goals.
🎯 Requirements
- • 8+ years of experience in analytics, with at least 3 years leading a team in e-commerce, subscription, or comparable consumer business contexts
- • Hands-on depth in marketing measurement including MMM, attribution, and incrementality—able to challenge methodology, design experiments, and hold vendors accountable
- • Fluency with marketing tech and AdTech stacks and understanding of how marketing systems generate analytical data
- • Proven track record of building, growing, and retaining strong analytics teams across analysts, data scientists, and engineers
- • Genuine product mindset focused on data products with defined users, success metrics, and lifecycles
- • Strong programme discipline managing portfolios, surfacing risks early, and creating clarity across concurrent initiatives
- • Executive presence and stakeholder communication skills effective at VP and C-level
- • University degree in a relevant field or equivalent demonstrable experience
