Director of Data & Business Intelligence

Membership organisation | London, hybrid | c£110,000

We are working with a large, purpose-led membership organisation that is looking to appoint an experienced Director of Data & Business Intelligence to provide strategic leadership across its data, business intelligence and analytics capability.

This is a senior transformation role with responsibility for developing a more mature and consistent approach to data across the organisation. You will take ownership of an established technical environment, lead the direction of the data function, strengthen governance and quality, and ensure that reporting and insight provide senior leaders and operational teams with the information they need to make effective decisions.

The Opportunity

You will work closely with executive and senior stakeholders to define priorities across data, reporting and analytics, ensuring that technology, governance and operating processes support the organisation’s longer-term objectives.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
