What you’ll be doing

We’re offering you the opportunity to influence the strategic direction of the UK’s largest consumer finance provider. This role sits at the intersection of data, commercial performance and customer outcomes — turning insight into action that drives real business results.

You’ll be responsible for developing insights through our data and analytics capabilities to optimise performance across our brands, and across both our digital and partner channels. A key part of the role will be supporting the evolution of our data landscape, including employing new technologies and tools, and playing an active role in supporting the transition from GDW to GCP.

Our insight and analytics team plays a critical role in shaping the commercial performance and strategic direction of the Loans business. As a Senior Analyst, you’ll provide actionable insight to optimise performance, inform pricing and proposition decisions, and influence customer demand across our journeys.

You’ll work closely with Senior Leaders and cross-functional teams to develop and deliver data led insights — where strong collaboration, ownership, and the ability to influence are key to success.

• Designing, building, and delivering high-quality analytics and insight solutions that support smarter decisions and drive commercial performance across the Loans business.

• Translate complex data into clear, actionable insight, helping stakeholders understand performance, see opportunities, and take action.

• Contribute to the development of scalable data and analytics solutions, including working with modern data platforms such as GCP, and supporting the transition from legacy systems (e.g. GDW) to new technologies.

• Champion data quality, governance, and responsible data use, ensuring outputs are reliable, ethical, and aligned with regulatory expectations.

• Work collaboratively with Technical Engineers, Product Owners, and Solution Architects to understand data flows and enable the efficient and effective delivery of high-quality analytics products.

• Influence outcomes and collaborate across technical and non-technical teams, understanding business needs and translating them into data-driven solutions.

Why join us?

We’re transforming at pace. Investing billions in our people, data and tech to change the way we meet the needs of our 28 million customers. We’re growing, and we’d love you to be part of the journey.

What we’re looking for?

• Proficiency in data analysis, customer analytics, building and validating models for forecasting, pricing, and segmentation and visualisation tools (e.g. Agentic AI, Machine Learning, Python, SQL, SAS, Power BI, Tableau) and experience with cloud-based data platforms (e.g. GCP native tools)

• Unafraid to challenge the status quo, have an intellectually curious outlook, where you seek to innovate and adapt quickly from setbacks.

• Apply product led thinking to reporting and analytics initiatives, ensuring solutions are user centric, iterative, and aligned to evolving business needs.

• Supporting the team to maximise commercial performance, with a clear understanding of financial metrics and performance drivers. Highly numerical, data-driven individual.

• Present and influence effectively with senior stakeholders.

• Strong understanding of the external environment, including customer trends, competitor strategies, and regulatory developments.
