UK - Fully Remote
Reports to: Head of Data
The companyThis is a fast-growing, product-led consumer technology business operating in the online betting and gaming space, far from a legacy operator and closer in feel to a modern fintech app. The platform is built with a focus on user experience, engineering excellence, and data-driven decision making. Backed by strong funding and ambitious growth plans, analytics plays a core role here in shaping strategy, product direction, and commercial performance.
Where you fitYou’ll lead the Analytics function within a broader data organisation that’s scaling over the next 12 months. You’ll manage two analysts from day one, with scope to add BI/analytics headcount as the business grows. Your work will directly support senior stakeholders across Growth, Product, Trading, Commercial, and Finance, helping move the business from reactive reporting to proactive, self-serve, insight-driven decision making.
What you’ll be doing*Lead and develop the analytics team; coach, review, and set a high bar for quality and clarity.
*Translate ambiguous business problems into clear analytical questions, robust metrics, and decision-ready outputs.
*Act as a trusted analytics partner to senior stakeholders, guiding prioritisation and aligning initiatives with business goals.
*Establish and maintain best practices across definitions, documentation, testing, version control, and modelling standards.
*Work closely with Data Engineering on data availability, modelling boundaries, and long-term scalability; balance pace with correctness.
*Drive adoption of self-serve analytics and build consistent, trusted metrics across the organisation.

*Experience in customer/commercial/product analytics in gambling, gaming, or online betting.
Stakeholder leadership:
*Excellent communication with non-technical business leaders; confidence pushing back, influencing, and managing expectations effectively.
Team leadership:
*Experience managing analysts/analytics engineers; you set standards, review output, and elevate team capability.
Commercial & strategic impact:
*Evidence of delivering insights that drove meaningful outcomes - revenue, retention, risk reduction, product improvements - not just dashboards.
Technical (required):
*Advanced SQL and strong dashboarding experience (the business uses Omni, but Looker or other BI tools are absolutely fine).
*Ability to critique data models, BI approaches, and analytical outputs with a quality-first mindset.
Why this role*Real ownership: The Head of Data is stepping back from day-to-day; you’ll run analytics, shape standards, and be the strategic partner to the business.
*Impact over vanity: Help define trusted metrics, eliminate multiple versions of the truth, and drive better decisions at pace.
*Growth path: As the data team scales, there’s room to step into broader data leadership.
