Head of Data | Up to £115k | London / Hybrid
The Role:
The data infrastructure is already in place. The opportunity now is to turn data into a genuinely strategic capability across the business, shaping the data strategy, developing the existing team, improving governance and helping leadership make better decisions through data.
- You’ll report directly to the CEO and sit across both the technical and strategic sides of the function.
- The core data infrastructure is already built across technologies including BigQuery, dbt, Airflow, Airbyte and Lightdash.
- The focus is now on making that infrastructure work harder for the business — improving how data is governed, accessed and used, while defining what the next stage of the function should look like.

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.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you’ll be doing
- Define and own the company’s data strategy, roadmap and priorities
- Work hands-on across data engineering, analytics engineering, modelling and analysis
- Develop and mentor a small existing data team, raising the technical and strategic bar
- Improve data quality, governance, ownership and accessibility
- Partner with teams across the business to understand where data can have the biggest impact
- Help shape the longer-term data, AI and ML strategy
- Explore how AI/LLMs can improve the productivity and capabilities of the data function
- Build the case for future investment and team growth as the business scales
Requirements:
- You’ll ideally have experience of taking a relatively small data team or function through a period of growth or increased maturity.
- You’ll need to be comfortable moving between technical detail and higher-level strategy - this isn't a role for someone who has been purely people-management focused for the last few years.
- Strong communication is also important. You’ll be working closely with senior leadership and non-technical stakeholders, so the ability to turn complex data concepts into clear business decisions is key.

If you're a hands-on data leader who has actually built or grown a function rather than simply inherited a large, established team, this could be an interesting next step.
