The dual disciplines of being able market and make content mean it is uniquely equipped to grow in a world in which successful content brands are both short and long form and cross multiple digital platforms.

The Role
We’re looking for a Data Insight Manager to sit at the heart of the Cold Glass production slate, someone who has worked within media, editorial, or entertainment and understands how content performance translates into creative decisions for digital franchises and shows.
You’ll own how data flows into the production team and key partners and how it’s used. From YouTube and social to audio platforms and partner channels, you’ll build a clear and reliable view of performance, before translating that into narratives the team can use.
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.
You’ll be as comfortable building robust reporting frameworks as you are digging into the detail behind a breakout clip, a spike in returning viewers, or a shift in audience behaviour.
There will also be opportunities to apply these frameworks and insights across other shows currently in development and newly launched shows like Outsiding, helping to shape a data-informed approach to content across our production slate.
As the first dedicated data and insight role within Cold Glass, this is a great opportunity to shape, develop and lead this area within the company as we grow.

- Analyse performance across YouTube (long-form and Shorts), social platforms, and podcast platforms to identify trends and opportunities
- Conduct deep-dive analysis on episodes, formats, guests and content types to understand what drives reach, retention, and return viewers

- Track weekly, monthly, and yearly performance, with a focus on growth, engagement and audience behaviour
Data Infrastructure & Reporting
- Own and evolve the reporting ecosystem for Cold Glass projects across platforms (YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Spotify, etc.)
- Build and maintain dashboards, trackers and reporting templates that are intuitive, accurate and scalable
- Ensure consistency and accuracy in how data is pulled, structured and stored across the business
- Develop systems that allow the team to easily access and understand performance at any time
Process & Framework Development
- Standardise reporting processes (weekly, monthly, and quarterly reports,)
- Continuously refine how we measure success, particularly around evolving platform metrics (e.g. returning viewers, watch time, completion rates)
- Monitor data accuracy across all sources and troubleshoot discrepancies
- Manage the ingestion of data from multiple platforms and ensure it is clean, reliable and up to date
- Work with internal and external partners to resolve data or tracking issues
