The Role

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced and talented Head of Business Intelligence to join our team based in Stratford, London (E20).

We're the UK’s fastest-growing parking technology provider, and we’re changing the way people park. Our on-demand marketplace connects drivers to thousands of spaces, while our comprehensive suite of B2B solutions transforms parking assets into connected mobility hubs.

As Head of BI, you will lead the development of a scalable, reliable BI function that powers decision-making across the business. This is a hands-on leadership role - you’ll balance ownership of our BI foundations with coaching a small, growing team of analysts. From maintaining our data foundations to driving analytical excellence, your remit covers the full BI lifecycle: infrastructure, tooling, governance, reporting, and operational insight.

You’ll manage a growing team of BI Analysts across Operations and Client analytics - ensuring high-quality output, clarity of priorities, and consistent, unified reporting across functions.

How To Make An Impact

  • Lead the development of a reliable, scalable BI foundation by owning our Snowflake environment, data models, and ELT pipelines, ensuring the business operates from a single source of truth.
  • Take a hands-on approach to modelling, ELT optimisation and dashboard development where needed, ensuring the team delivers consistently high-quality output.
  • Manage and develop the BI Analysts across Operations and Client analytics, setting priorities, ensuring consistency of output, and raising the standard of analysis across the team.
  • Partner with operational and commercial teams to deliver the analytics and reporting that drive performance, service quality and product usage.
  • Build and maintain clear, accurate dashboards in Tableau that give leadership visibility of operational, commercial and product performance.
  • Own our external client dashboards and reporting needs in Sisense, ensuring clients receive accurate, insightful and market-leading reporting.
  • Strengthen data governance by improving data definitions, documentation and data quality across the organisation.

About You

  • Strong experience designing and maintaining scalable data models within a cloud data warehouse environment (ideally Snowflake), with a solid understanding of optimisation and governance best practices.
  • Familiarity with Kleene or similar ELT tools, with the ability to support and optimise data pipelines.
  • Expertise designing high-quality dashboards in both Tableau (internal analytics) and Sisense (external dashboards) or similar BI tools.
  • Understanding of marketplace or multi-sided platform dynamics, particularly supply and demand performance.

Your background

  • 6+ years’ experience in BI or data analytics within a tech-driven or high-growth environment.
  • Experience owning and scaling data platforms, ideally in an environment without a dedicated data engineering team, including Snowflake, ELT pipelines, data modelling and data governance.
  • Proven experience leading and developing analysts - setting priorities, managing workload, coaching growth, and raising the quality and consistency of analytical output.
  • Proactive, strategic mindset - able to challenge assumptions, hold teams to account, surface risks and opportunities early, and ensure decisions across the business are grounded in clear, reliable data.
  • Strong SQL skills and hands-on analytical capability.
  • Confident with modern BI tooling, ideally Tableau, with experience creating high-quality dashboards and performance reporting.
  • Comfortable partnering with commercial and operational teams to drive clarity, alignment and improved performance.
  • Excellent communication skills, able to turn complex analysis into clear, actionable insight.
  • Thrives in a fast-moving environment with shifting priorities.

This is a hybrid role based in our offices in Stratford, London E20, 3 days per week, the other 2 days from home.

Arrive, including brands like EasyPark, Flowbird, RingGo, ParkMobile and Parkopedia, is a leading global mobility platform. Present in over 90 countries and 20,000 cities, the company helps people and decision-makers make smarter decisions about urban mobility and ease the experience of travel worldwide.

Neurodiversity in Data Science Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Data science is all about turning messy, real-world information into decisions, products & insights. It sits at the crossroads of maths, coding, business & communication – which means it needs people who see patterns, ask unusual questions & challenge assumptions. That makes data science a natural fit for many neurodivergent people, including those with ADHD, autism & dyslexia. If you’re neurodivergent & thinking about a data science career, you might have heard comments like “you’re too distracted for complex analysis”, “too literal for stakeholder work” or “too disorganised for large projects”. In reality, the same traits that can make traditional environments difficult often line up beautifully with data science work. This guide is written for data science job seekers in the UK. We’ll explore: What neurodiversity means in a data science context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to common data science roles Practical workplace adjustments you can request under UK law How to talk about your neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in data science – & how to turn “different thinking” into a real career advantage.

Data Science Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK data science hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise rigorous problem framing, high‑quality analytics & modelling, experiment/causality, production awareness (MLOps), governance/ethics, and measurable product or commercial impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for product/data scientists, applied ML scientists, decision scientists, econometricians, growth/marketing analysts, and ML‑adjacent data scientists supporting LLM/AI products. Who this is for: Product/decision/data scientists, applied ML scientists, econometrics & causal inference specialists, experimentation leads, analytics engineers crossing into DS, ML generalists with strong statistics, and data scientists collaborating with platform/MLOps teams in the UK.

Why Data Science Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Data science once meant advanced statistics, machine learning models and coding in Python or R. In the UK today, it has become one of the most in-demand professions across sectors — from healthcare to finance, retail to government. But as the field matures, employers now expect more than technical modelling skills. Modern data science is multidisciplinary. It requires not just coding and algorithms, but also legal knowledge, ethical reasoning, psychological insight, linguistic clarity and human-centred design. Data scientists are expected to interpret, communicate and apply data responsibly, with awareness of law, human behaviour and accessibility. In this article, we’ll explore why data science careers in the UK are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these five disciplines intersect with data science, and what job-seekers & employers need to know to succeed in this transformed field.
