Currently working with a leading real estate organisation to recruit for a truly exciting and unique opportunity of Market Signals Intelligence Lead. This role is accountable for establishing and leading enterprise market intelligence capability, turning complex internal and external data into single interpretation of market dynamics for senior leadership decision making.
You’ll work cross functionally with teams such as Data Science, Research and Business Intelligence, and work to bridge the gap by owning the transition from descriptive reporting to interpretive, forward thinking intelligence, directly shaping how the firm understands and responds to market conditions.
Key Responsibilities
- Define enterprise-level market signals, leading indicator frameworks, and prioritisation models to support forecasting and strategic decision-making.
- Establish a forward-looking (1–3 year) signal architecture and firm-wide standards for signal definition, interpretation, and narrative consistency.
- Own the Quarterly Market Signals Narrative, synthesising insights into key decision-relevant signals, providing clear directional judgement, confidence levels, and highlighting evidence gaps or emerging risks.
- Deliver a coherent market narrative adopted at Partner and Board level, eliminating fragmented or conflicting interpretations across senior stakeholders.
- Act as a senior, non-hierarchical capability lead, influencing BI, Data Science, and Research teams while setting the analytical agenda through signal prioritisation.
- Integrate external economic datasets (e.g., Macrobond) with internal performance data to generate causal and contextual insights.
- Partner closely with the Global Head of Research, Head of Residential, Senior Partner, and executive leadership to inform market positioning, investment decisions, and responses to macroeconomic and geopolitical changes.
