Director of Data & Analytics – UK & Europe
Location: United Kingdom - ideally London
Scope: UK with wider European responsibility
Employment Type: Permanent, Full-Time
I’m recruiting for a Director of Data & Analytics – UK & Europe for a global technology and digital transformation business.
This is a senior leadership role with real ownership across commercial growth, solutions, delivery, client relationships and P&L.
They’re looking for someone who can lead and grow the Data, Analytics & AI practice across the UK, while also supporting the wider European business.
It’s not a pure sales role and it’s not a pure delivery role either. The right person needs to be comfortable doing both.
I’m particularly keen to speak with people who have:
- A strong background in Data, Analytics and/or AI consulting
- Experience operating at Director, Practice Director, VP, Head of Practice or similar level
- A background within a technology consultancy, systems integrator or digital transformation business
- Experience of owning and growing a Data & Analytics practice or business unit
- Previous P&L ownership, including revenue, margin, utilisation and profitability
- Strong pre-sales and solutions experience, including shaping complex enterprise Data and AI programmes
- Experience leading RFPs, proposals and senior client presentations
- Experience of growing existing accounts and winning new work
- Experience working directly with CIOs, CTOs, CDOs and other senior stakeholders
- Experience leading teams across consulting, architecture and delivery
- Strong knowledge of modern Data platforms, including cloud, Data Lakes/Lakehouse, Data Mesh and modern Data architecture
- Experience overseeing large-scale enterprise Data, Analytics or AI programmes
The ideal person will probably already be running, or have recently run, a sizeable Data & Analytics practice and be able to talk clearly about the P&L they’ve owned, the teams they’ve led and the growth they’ve delivered.
It’s a senior role with real responsibility across the UK and Europe.
