Job Description
- Partner directly with business and product initiatives (e.g. Broker Quoting Tool, Embedded Finance) to frame the right questions, design sound analyses, and interpret results with appropriate statistical rigour
- Apply hypothesis-driven thinking to test assumptions, systematically rule out alternative explanations, and build cumulative, contextual knowledge of the business over time — going beyond what point-in-time AI querying can provide
- Build a track record of shipped analyses that demonstrably changed a decision or a team's understanding — not just dashboards or ad hoc fact-finding
- Drive adoption of an experimentation mindset across teams: framing decisions as testable hypotheses, tracking outcomes, and building an evidence base that compounds across initiatives rather than resetting with each request
- Own delivery of hypothesis-driven analyses from framing through to recommendation, partnering with Data Engineering to consume the governed semantic layer rather than duplicating data prep
- Work closely with the Data Architecture & Strategy Lead to prioritise analytical focus against the team's active strategic initiatives
Qualifications
- Strong grounding in hypothesis-driven analysis, experimental design, and statistical interpretation — able to identify when a result is significant, spurious, or simply under-specified
- Experience partnering with business or product stakeholders on ambiguous, open-ended questions tied to real initiatives, not just servicing report requests
- Comfort working with SQL and a governed semantic/data layer (e.g. dbt, Databricks) to self-serve rather than depending on engineering for every data pull
- A builder's instinct for compounding knowledge — documenting reasoning and findings so insight persists and accumulates, rather than being re-derived each time
- Strong communication skills to translate analysis into a clear recommendation and a case for action, for both technical and non-technical audiences
- Experience in fintech, lending, or financial services highly regarded
