Analytics Director

Who is Quantium?

Quantium is a world leader in data science and artificial intelligence. Established in Australia in 2002, Quantium is a global team of more than 1,200 people across 14 locations with a unique blend of capabilities across product and consulting services to help businesses unlock value from data and analytics. Quantium partners with the world's largest corporations to forge a better, more intelligent world.

As a Director of Analytics, you will lead our Embedded analytics & insights team with one of our major retail clients, delivering fast-turnaround customer analytics and higher-value strategic work, while coaching and developing the team.

How will you make an impact?

• Lead the delivery of high-volume, rapid-turnaround analytics for our client, balancing fast commercial requests with the identification and scoping of longer-horizon strategic opportunities
• Own senior-level relationships within the client's organization, building trust as an embedded partner who understands their planning cycles, constraints, and decision-making pace
• Coach and develop your team's analytical output — reviewing work, building capability, and fostering a culture of innovation
• Drive adoption of AI-led approaches within the team, using AI tools to reimagine the way the team works to speed up the question-to-decision cycle
• Translate patterns across multiple analytics requests into proposals for strategic, higher-value work with the client
• Manage delivery through Q.Checkout, balancing day-to-day throughput with the team's capacity for strategic scoping

The superpowers you'll be bringing to the team

• Proven experience delivering analytics and insights in a deadline-driven environment, balanced with the judgment to identify and scope longer-horizon strategic opportunities
• Practical, hands-on experience applying AI tools to accelerate analytics delivery — not just aware of AI capability
• Experience leading a small team
• Strong stakeholder management: building trust with a senior client team, managing competing priorities, and knowing when to push back or say no
• Previous experience being hands-on with the tools (SQL/Python and experience working directly with large-scale customer, transaction, or sales data). It's OK if you haven't written code in a while
• Ability to translate ambiguous, fast-moving requests into structured analytical approaches, and to spot patterns across requests that surface bigger strategic opportunities
• Comfortable working with large, complex data and drawing sound conclusions from it; logical, structured thinker with a strong affinity for numerical analysis
• Bachelor's degree or higher in a related discipline

• Retail, or CPG  analytics domain experience; equally, we welcome strong analytics operators from adjacent industries who can apply their expertise to the retail domain
• Experience identifying new business opportunities with an existing client and contributing to scoping or proposing expanded work

Remember — you might not tick all the boxes, but don't let that stop you from applying. We're more interested in how you work, your ability to solve problems and think big.

What could your Quantium experience look like?
