Salary: £60k

Location: WFH / Central London

You’ll be joining this established digital and data agency at a pivotal time of growth and change.

Having been established in the customer data space for a number of years, they have been going through a step change over the course of the last year. This now means they are looking to grow in terms of their headcount and also their overall reach and data offering. They now form part of a wider global marketing agency group, meaning an influx of work from existing and new group level clients PLUS their own independent new business. They are looking to hire this role (amongst) others in order to support this growth, and the development of the data offering from both an independent and group level. They’re on an exciting growth trajectory with 60% growth in one year, and that’s not including the current hires in the market.

The data function is split into 4 core work steams, one of which you will be aligned to, but not married to – the manager has a great attitude and is really open to people moving around across projects and work streams in order to develop and grow people’s skills.

As a team they’re moving towards developing depth in specialism areas, whilst retaining their breadth reflective of the range of projects. The four core pillars are:

– Strategic Insights Analytics

– CRM Analytics

– Digital Analytics

– Data Science & Data Engineering

This role will likely work on projects falling in the top two – they’re not expecting someone to bucket themselves into one immediately, and ideally you’d develop to have a good understanding across all areas. There will be plenty of ‘on the job’ learning for those that want to upskill in any of the areas mentioned and they have lots to offer formally too, including Udemy licenses and a tech stack review going on as we speak to ensure they’re market leading and ongoing internal training.

You will work supporting the wider strategy teams, where data is the no.1 point of focus for the agency, to solve business problems and drive improved customer understanding for clients.

Additionally there is the chance for this person to move into management, should they wish, as the team grows and more and more responsibility is available through managing downwards as well as owning client relationships and projects.
