We are seeking a strategic and hands-on Data Analytics Manager to lead our Product Operations and Data Insights functions for maternity cover. This is a pivotal role for someone who thrives at the intersection of data, operations, and business strategy. You’ll shape how our business uses insights to drive decision-making, while also ensuring our product operations are underpinned by robust monitoring, controls, and collaboration across departments.
This will be a 12 months maternity cover
What you can expect to be doing:
Product Operations
- Supply accurate and timely operational and product data to internal teams including Finance, Marketing, Product, and Leadership.
- Partner with Product Managers to support feature rollout, performance tracking, and post-launch reviews.
- Ensure cross-functional alignment between product development, business needs, and go-to-market strategies.
- Ensure controls, monitoring and reporting are carried out in a timely manner
Data Insights
- Build and lead a high-performing data insights team that provides clear, actionable analysis to stakeholders across the business.
- Shape the function to go beyond surface metrics, developing a strong hypothesis-driven approach to problem-solving.
- Identify and prioritise the critical questions the business needs to answer, aligning analytics efforts with strategic priorities.
- Translate complex data findings into narratives that drive clarity, alignment, and action at all levels of the organisation.
Leadership & Strategy
- Operate as a thought partner to senior leadership, influencing company-wide initiatives through operational insight and data-driven thinking.
- Build scalable processes and systems that allow both the Product Ops and Data Insights functions to evolve as the company grows.
- Foster a culture of collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement across the teams.
- Own and manage development, hiring plans, and performance management.
What we’re looking for:
- Proven experience in a data, analytics or product operations leadership role, ideally in a fast-paced technology or product-led environment.
- Strong background in data—comfortable interpreting and challenging data, and leading analytics teams.
- Demonstrated ability to establish scalable operational practices in cross-functional settings.
- Strategic mindset with a hands-on approach to execution and problem-solving.
- Excellent stakeholder management skills—able to influence and partner effectively across all levels of the organisation.
- Skilled at uncovering and framing the “real” questions that drive impact, not just answering what's asked.
- Comfortable leading multiple teams and functions in a high-growth environment.
Nice to have
- Experience working in a product-led or B2C business.
- Familiarity with modern data tooling (e.g., SQL, Databricks, etc.).
- Degree in Mathematics, Statistics, Economics or a related field.
What we’re really looking for:✍️
Someone with a genuine interest in Chip and is excited about being part of a fast-growing company and our mission to build the investment super app of the future.
Although we’re in the financial space, and under the scrutiny that comes with it, the current operations team works well together, and even sometimes with a smile. We’re sure you’ve got the technical skills, otherwise, you would have stopped reading by now, so let us be clear on what will make us want to work with you.
We want a real person, with interests outside of work, to join our team. You could be a dancer, a gamer, a musician, a parent, a hockey fan, or even that one person that still writes Twilight fan-fiction. Doesn’t matter to us.
At the interview stages, we will be looking for empathy, eq, fun stories, and the ability to smile even when things are tough.
