As a Lead Data Analyst

As a Lead Data Analyst, you’ll play a central role in shaping how Admiral uses customer data to deliver smarter, more connected and more personalised customer experiences across UK Customer.

We’re investing in Adobe Experience Platform, Customer Journey Analytics and Adobe Journey Optimiser to transform how we understand customer behaviour, build audiences and activate personalisation across our digital and marketing channels. This role will help turn that ambition into reality, creating the data foundations, audience strategy and governance needed to make Adobe a trusted, scalable capability across the business.

You’ll own the logical design of customer data models and audiences within Adobe Experience Platform, ensuring schemas, datasets and audience definitions are structured, reusable and easy to understand. Working closely with Digital, Marketing, Data Privacy and the wider Digital Analytics team, you’ll translate business goals into clear data and audience designs that support better measurement, better decision-making and more relevant customer journeys.

By embedding strong governance from the start, you’ll help ensure our customer data is not only powerful, but trusted, explainable and used responsibly enabling UK Customer to move faster, personalise more effectively and build more consistent experiences across channels.

The Role

  • Define and govern XDM schema and dataset standards, ensuring consistency and analytical clarity across Adobe Experience Platform.
  • Translate business requirements into clear, logical audience definitions and validate behaviour, scale and eligibility.
  • Work closely with our Digital Analytics and Marketing teams to advise on how audiences should be used for activation and measurement.
  • Own the definition of any audiences that we export to third party tools, e.g. for optimisation of paid media.
  • Establish shared analytical taxonomies and attributes used across journeys, reporting and experimentation.
  • Work in liaison with Data Privacy and Martech to ensure data labels are applied appropriately on the platform for data and marketing restriction.

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.
