Data & Analytics Manager
Salary: £60,000 - £80,000
Location:
North Cambridgeshire
Working Pattern: Four days onsite, with one day working from home
Zachary Daniels is partnering with a successful, privately owned multi-brand retail group to appoint a Data & Analytics Manager.
The business has an established UK store estate, growing brands, and ambitious plans for future expansion and acquisition. While it already generates significant data across retail, ecommerce, customer, marketing, stock, and operations, there is currently limited infrastructure in place to bring everything together.
This is a genuine greenfield opportunity for someone to establish the data and analytics capability from the ground up.
The Opportunity
You will work closely with the owners and senior leadership team to understand the current data landscape, define the strategy, and build the systems, reporting, and processes needed to improve decision-making across the group.
This is not a role where you will inherit a finished platform and simply maintain existing dashboards. You will have the freedom to identify what is missing, recommend the right technology, and create a data capability that delivers visible commercial value.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Key Responsibilities
- Define and deliver the group's data and analytics strategy
- Review the existing systems, data sources, and reporting processes
- Design a scalable data architecture and establish a trusted source of business information
- Select and implement appropriate data, reporting, and BI technology
- Connect data across stores, ecommerce, CRM, marketing, product, stock, and operations
- Replace fragmented spreadsheets and manual reporting with automated solutions
- Develop reporting and dashboards for senior leadership and operational teams
- Provide commercial insight into customer behavior, trading performance, and digital growth
- Establish data governance, ownership, and quality standards
- Partner with technology, ecommerce, marketing, finance, and retail teams
- Help shape the future structure and development of the data function
- Support future acquisitions by helping integrate new brands and data sources
What We Are Looking For
- Experience building or significantly improving a data and analytics capability
- Strong technical understanding of modern data platforms, reporting, and BI tools
- Able to operate strategically while remaining close to hands-on delivery
- Experience bringing together data from multiple business systems
- Strong commercial awareness and the ability to turn data into clear actions
- Comfortable influencing owners, directors, and senior stakeholders
- A practical approach with the ability to deliver in a fast-moving environment
- An empathetic, people-focused leadership style
- Retail, ecommerce, consumer, or another omnichannel environment would be highly advantageous

Why Consider This Opportunity?
This is an opportunity to join a successful retailer at an important stage of its development. You will have direct access to the decision-makers, genuine ownership of the data agenda, and the chance to build something meaningful rather than working around years of established processes.
The business has a refreshingly practical culture, moves quickly, and values people who bring ideas without unnecessary complexity.
