Full-Time | Amsterdam | Data & Technology
About Our Client
Our client is a well-established, data-led organisation operating at scale in the digital marketing space. With a global user base and a strong technology-first culture, they sit at the intersection of performance marketing, product analytics, and advanced data engineering. Their Amsterdam headquarters serves as the commercial and technical hub for a team of driven professionals who are passionate about using data to make smarter decisions, faster.
They are now looking for a Head of Data & Analytics to lead their data function – a senior, strategic hire who will shape how the organisation collects, interprets, and acts on data at every level.
The Opportunity
This is a pivotal leadership position with genuine scope and visibility. You will own the data strategy end-to-end, driving the roadmap across Data Science, Business Intelligence, and Data Engineering. You will work closely with senior stakeholders across marketing, product, and operations – and you will be expected to build, not just manage.
If you are energised by hypothesis testing, optimisation challenges, and the idea of deploying machine learning at scale in a real commercial environment, this role offers exactly that.
What You Will Do
- Define and execute a comprehensive data strategy aligned with commercial objectives
- Lead and grow a multi-disciplinary team spanning Data Science, BI, and Data Engineering
- Oversee data infrastructure, including OLAP systems and columnar databases
- Ensure data quality, integrity, and governance across all platforms and pipelines
- Develop and maintain KPIs for marketing operations and billing systems
- Apply statistical methods and machine learning techniques to drive campaign performance
- Partner with cross-functional teams to translate data into clear, actionable insight
- Build a culture of intellectual curiosity, rigour, and continuous improvement
- Identify and attract strong data talent as the team scales
- Stay ahead of emerging trends across data science, BI tooling, and engineering practices
- Proven leadership experience within a data science, BI, or data engineering function
- Strong background in internet or performance marketing — you understand the metrics that matter
- Deep expertise in OLAP, statistics, and applied machine learning
- Advanced SQL skills and hands-on experience with columnar databases such as Redshift
- Practical Python ability across data analysis, ML workflows, and engineering tasks (Pandas, NumPy, SciPy)
- Experience with data visualisation in JavaScript, including frameworks such as D3.js or Plotly.js
- A natural leader who develops people as well as projects
- Clear communicator who can translate complexity into business language
- Educated to degree level in a relevant discipline — Data Science, Computer Science, Statistics, or similar
