  • Work with product and credit functions to deliver recommendations in the journeys you are monitoring. (product analysis)

  • Combine quantitative and qualitative judgements to triage growth ideas and strategies; finding and researching the key levers for growth internally or via partners, and forming a view of how to measure and capture more of the total addressable market. (strategy)

What we're looking for

Essential Skills:

  • 2-4 years in a recent role directly handling and analysing data to create business insights including day to day use of SQL

  • Proven hands-on commercial experience growing and/or launching product lines

  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

Desirable:

  • Experience in credit cards, loans, car finance or mortgages

  • Experience working in the credit card affiliate and price comparison site space

What does good look like in 6 months time?

  • Catch every breakage in funnels (spec, build and maintain alerting + be looking at the data daily, change what we look at)

  • Identify and assess new acquisition channels for scale and profitability

  • Attribute all funnel changes (combine knowledge of ranking algorithm function with realised performance)

  • Generate high quality MI for management to understand the health of our acquisition funnels (understand senior management's needs and communicate well)

  • Help form the view of how we grow into our TAM with confidence

  • Identify opportunities for >10% improvements to enquiry-to-sale rate (self motivate to find opportunities and pitch them internally with robust analytical backing)

  • Triage partner initiatives and decide which to take forward (create models to represent business opportunities to understand which bets to take)
