ABOUT THE POSITION

As Associate Director, Strategic Insights and Analytics , you will serve as a senior people leader and individual contributor responsible for shaping how the business understands performance, anticipates what’s next, and makes better strategic decisions. This is a player–coach role, with direct ownership of proactive, forward ‑ looking insights and the Analytics Center of Excellence (CoE), while managing a team of analysts.

You will partner closely with senior leaders across the entire organization to translate complexity into clear, actionable insights. This role requires a strong strategic lens, deep technical fluency, exceptional written and verbal communication, systems thinking, and comfort operating in ambiguity. The ideal candidate thrives in a role that blends strategic thinking with hands-on execution - someone who is energized by both producing sharp insights independently and elevating the work of a team.

• Develop and monitor leading indicators and early ‑ warning metrics; ensure insights are actionable, clearly communicated, and tied to business decisions

• Frame ambiguous business questions, design analytical approaches, and guide work from hypothesis through executive ‑ ready recommendations
