Hybrid: 3 days per week in the office (flexible)

I’m recruiting for a brand-new role within a global media business, leading data engineering and solution architecture for a major international client.

This is an opportunity for a technical leader who combines deep media data experience with the confidence to manage engineers, own technical delivery and lead client conversations.

The role:

  • Manage and develop a team of data engineers.
  • Own the technical direction, solution architecture and engineering standards across the account’s data infrastructure.
  • Oversee development and coding, including code reviews, quality and best practice.
  • Lead technical client meetings, translating business requirements into clear, scalable solutions.
  • Ensure data pipelines and reporting datasets are accurate, reliable and efficient within an AWS environment.

You’ll need:

  • Media data experience - essential, with a strong understanding of advertising or campaign data.
  • Hands-on expertise in Amazon Redshift and dbt - both essential.
  • Experience managing data engineers and overseeing technical delivery.
  • Strong SQL skills and the technical depth to review code and guide engineering decisions.
  • Confidence leading technical discussions with clients and explaining complex ideas clearly.

As a newly created position, this offers scope to shape the role, establish engineering standards and influence how the team delivers.
