Work closely with product leadership to define and deliver on a data-driven roadmap, utilising experiments and insights to inform decision-making.

Technology Strategy:

Set and communicate a clear technology strategy, effectively diagnosing problems and prioritising solutions for both immediate and long-term impact.
Own data governance, the data architecture and champion robust data orchestration and integration across all systems, including complex APIs and system design (internal and external).
Develop and execute a comprehensive data infrastructure + strategy, focusing on stitching together SaaS services and data, and managing migrations (e.g., connecting comms together).
Ensure strategic investment in the right tools and technologies, balancing short-term gains with effective technical debt management and long-term investments.
Build technology to drive the performance of in-house operators, including expertise in CRM (Salesforce + in-house) solutions.

Execution:

Assess capability levels and invest in supporting at the right levels to close gaps in performance, skill, and knowledge.
