Data Enablement & Delivery Executive in Folkestone

Joining Saga Plc as our new Data Enablement and Delivery Executive, you’ll play a pivotal role in turning our data strategy into measurable improvements in how Saga collects, governs, and activates first‑party data. We are the leading provider of products and services tailored for customers aged over 50, and your work will allow us to personalise responsibly and deliver meaningful products to valued customers.

Reporting to our Data Strategy Lead in our central group function, you will translate data strategy into action, leading day‑to‑day execution of initiatives that grow our first‑party data, strengthen consent and preferences, and enable personalisation across channels. You’ll coordinate stakeholders, unblock delivery, and ensure we land measurable outcomes while upholding GDPR and customer‑facing privacy standards.

We are looking for someone with high-energy, who is commercially minded, and deeply analytical who thrives on taking ownership and driving impact. If you’re someone who doesn’t wait for instructions but actively seeks out challenges, digs deep to understand complex systems, and pulls multiple threads together to deliver tangible results then we would love to hear from you.

We work in a hybrid way at Saga both at home and in the office. This role requires you to be working from our Folkestone office once a week, allowing us to collaborate and share success as a business. There will also be ad hoc visits to our London Kings Cross office on occasion.

As our Data Enablement & Delivery Executive you will be responsible for planning and delivering a backlog of data‑strategy initiatives (e.g., consent and preference journeys, data capture enhancements, identity/CRM improvements, audience/segment enablement) from discovery through measurement, working cross‑functionally with Marketing, Data, Digital, Legal/Compliance and Tech.

• Optimising consent, permissions, and PECR/GDPR compliance in customer journeys, partnering with Legal/Compliance to operationalise policy changes and implement preference‑centre improvements.
• Growing our first‑party database and website sign‑ups by testing value‑exchange, capture placements, and nurture flows; embed clear measurement and reporting.
• Enabling marketing decisioning by working with Analytics/MarTech to productionise segments, ensure metadata/taxonomy quality, and test new integrations and tools.
• Building the evidence base: define KPIs, instrumentation, and dashboards; analyse results and produce clear recommendations to iterate and scale what works.
• Staying current on best practice in data‑driven marketing, privacy, and customer experience for an over‑50 audience; share updates and embed learnings with the team.

You will have hands‑on experience turning strategy into delivery, bridging the gap between our Marketing and Data team here at Saga. You will be an effective communicator, able to speak to senior leadership teams inspiring them and working together in a collaborative environment.

Operational skills required include:

• Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret data sets and provide actionable insights.
• Familiarity with standard marketing campaign measurements and KPIs.
• Understanding of analytics tools and techniques.
• Be technically savvy with a commercial mindset, ideally with a strong emphasis on Adobe platforms and the ESPs.
• Familiarity with the latest technology trends and their application in business settings.
• Knowledge of first‑party data strategies and customer segmentation.
• Familiarity with data visualization tools and techniques.
• Be able to write up business requirements to highlight data needs, use and value.
• Knowledge of project management practices and methodologies, including Agile and Scrum.
• Understanding of data management principles, including data governance, quality, and security.
• Understanding of GDPR and consent and a knowledge of data privacy regulations.
• Proficiency in PowerPoint & Excel.
