This role is both highly strategic and highly tactical—ideal for a data leader who can oversee platforms, guide teams and vendors, and clearly articulate how data can drive market differentiation, operational efficiency, and revenue growth.

This leader will play a critical role within the Information Management & Analytics organization, owning the data platform vision while ensuring day-to-day reliability, governance, and performance. The role has broad latitude to innovate and shape where the data function heads over the next several years.

Data Platform & Operations

• Oversee the enterprise data platform, ensuring systems are reliable, scalable, and operating effectively on a day-to-day basis
• Own data products, standards, and operating models—defining how data is used, managed, and evolved across the organization
• Ensure data alerts, monitoring, and operational issues are tracked, managed, and resolved
• Oversee and optimize data feeds and processing pipelines, including ingestion, transformation, and consumption layers
• Lead efforts to layer and modernize legacy data warehouses, integrating historical and current data sources into a cohesive platform

Strategy, Vision & Business Impact

• Translate data into actionable insights that inform enterprise strategy, profitability, and growth decisions
• Use data to identify trends, inefficiencies, and opportunities—clearly articulating what the company may be losing money on and where data can increase marketability
• Partner with business leaders to forecast future impacts, support investment decisions, and guide long-term planning
• Drive innovation in analytics, machine learning, and predictive modeling to support future-focused decision making

Analytics, Machine Learning & Insights

• Oversee the development of algorithms and analytical models, including machine learning use cases for classification, prediction, and trend analysis
• Ensure analytics solutions are aligned to business outcomes rather than purely technical outputs
• Champion best practices for data governance, data quality, metadata management, and enterprise analytics standards

Leadership & Stakeholder Management

• Lead and mentor 3–5 direct reports while also managing external vendors/partners
• Serve as a clear, confident communicator who can translate complex technical concepts into business-friendly language
• Collaborate closely with finance, operations, technology, and executive leadership (financial expertise supported by internal partners)
