4 days/week in office
9 Month Fixed-Term Contract
- Are you a senior analyst who thinks strategically about data and can influence how an organisation uses it to make decisions?
- Are you someone who can step into an established portfolio of work at pace and set the bar for how we manage data quality, governance and insight?
- If you've operated at Principal or Lead Analyst level in fintech or a regulated, data-heavy industry, and you're energised by moving between hands-on analysis to acting as a strategic partner to the business, this could be the role.

Stakeholder Leadership & Communication
- Act as a trusted voice and influencer across the business, engaging stakeholders directly to shape organisational data strategy and decision-making.
Data Governance & Strategy
- Provide strategic oversight of data management across Modulr, define governance standards and policy, and contribute to the long-term data strategy.
Data Quality & Standards
- Set and champion organisational standards for data modelling, quality assurance, validation, and enrichment — and develop best practice frameworks that others follow.
Data Visualisation & Insight Communication
- Set the standard for how we visualise and communicate data insights, leading the strategic direction of the practice across teams.
Team Leadership & Mentoring

Who You Are
What you'll need
- Proven experience operating at Principal, Lead or Senior Analyst level, ideally within fintech, payments or another regulated, data-intensive industry.
- A track record of translating complex data into insight that genuinely shapes data-driven decisions across an organisation.
- Deep expertise in data modelling, quality assurance and visualisation, with the confidence and judgement to set standards rather than just follow them.
- Strong statistical and analytical grounding — you're comfortable moving between hands-on analysis and strategic oversight.
- The ability to step into an established team and portfolio of work at short notice, with the confidence to keep initiatives moving without an extended ramp-up period.
Nice to have
- Experience mentoring and developing analytical teams, especially during periods of transition or change.
- Exposure to high-stakes, high-visibility data challenges in a fast-growing, regulated fintech or financial services business.
