About the Role
ITV is on a digital transformation with data and insight at the centre of change. ITV Insights will lead the business in putting insight in every key decision.

The answers to these questions and more will enable ITV to succeed in the future.
You will be a key player in shaping our understanding of our business. This role will work closely with cross functional teams to deliver the right insight solutions for our stakeholders.

The individual will act as a catalyst for change in the organisation and will influence business stakeholders through their collaborative approach.
The ultimate purpose of this role is to drive business growth - enabling stakeholders to make more effective decisions which drive greater business value. This will require strategic insights focusing on how we can optimize ITVX and how we can ensure we reach the biggest possible audience across multiple potential distribution channels.

- Execute and deliver audience insight that improves decision making and business growth for the ITVX Product & Distribution teams
- Deliver insights that align to the success of ITVX - including driving number of viewers, viewing engagement and commercial growth - through a deep understanding of viewer habits
- Visually represent data to drive clear business decisions and action
- Develop models that simplify complex problems to enable informed decision making, including forecasting performance over the medium-long term
- Be an approachable, reliable and visible point of contact for key stakeholders
