The Role

The Lead Analytics Consultant is a pivotal role responsible for shaping and implementing our clients' digital measurement strategies. You will draw on your deep expertise in Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, and privacy-first solutions to identify complex analytics challenges and translate them into actionable, robust technical implementations. This role requires a blend of hands-on technical execution and strategic leadership, as you will guide clients, oversee projects, and collaborate with our delivery teams to ensure their data ecosystems empower effective decision-making.

Responsibilities

As a Lead Analytics Consultant, you will be responsible for :

• Designing and implementing advanced digital measurement solutions : Lead the planning, design, and hands-on implementation of comprehensive data analytics across diverse digital channels and platforms, primarily using the Google Analytics 360 / GA4 suite. This includes managing properties, user access, dashboards, and reporting configurations.
• Driving GA4, GTM, and Server-Side Tagging Implementations : Execute complex GA4 and Google Tag Manager configurations, including advanced data layer strategies, custom event tracking, and server-side tagging (e.g., Conversion API pipelines).
• Architecting robust data collection ecosystems : Develop and maintain client-side and server-side "sources of truth" for analytics data, integrating with various technologies such as TMS, CDP (e.g., Tealium, mParticle), and CMS.

• Translating business needs into technical measurement strategies : Collaborate closely with clients to identify core measurement and analytics needs, translating them into detailed technical specifications and actionable implementation plans.
• Leading client engagements and project delivery : Oversee the end-to-end delivery of analytics projects, ensuring solutions are robust, scalable, and meet client objectives. This includes working closely with developers and product owners to define appropriate metrics and tracking behaviors for new and existing properties.
• Fostering data-driven decision-making : Nurture clients' understanding of the importance of a well-defined and tested measurement strategy, acting as a consultative resource to help them build and optimise their own testing models and attribution frameworks.
• Educating and empowering internal and external stakeholders : Provide training and thought leadership on existing and new features / capabilities in Google Analytics and other analytics software, defining roadmaps for long-term customer analytics needs and fostering a culture of data literacy.
• Integrating diverse data sources : Understand and deploy integrations between analytics platforms and external data from POS systems, advertising networks, CRMs, location-based tracking, and offline paid media to create a holistic view of customer journeys.
• Optimizing processes for efficiency and scale : Identify opportunities to build efficiencies into repeatable processes, driving towards higher effective rates between client value and costs, and enabling global scalability of solutions.
