 About the role

We're looking for a Lead Implementation Analyst to take ownership of our digital data collection strategy, ensuring we have accurate, scalable, and privacy-compliant tracking across all our websites and digital platforms.

This role sits at the heart of our growing Business Intelligence function, working closely with digital product squads, developers, testers, and analysts. You'll champion the quality and consistency of tracking across platforms, helping the organisation unlock deeper insights into user behaviour, customer journeys, and campaign performance.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Own and implement our cookie consent compliance strategy, ensuring all tags respect user consent preferences.
  • Define tracking requirements in partnership with stakeholders from product, content, marketing, and UX teams.

  • Provide implementation QA and UAT support for releases affecting tagging or analytics.
  • Mentor junior analysts and build best practices around digital data collection across the organisation.
  • Collaborate with analytics, experimentation, and data platform teams to ensure tagging supports broader business needs.

About you:

You'll be a technically capable and detail-oriented digital analyst or developer with a deep understanding of data collection, digital measurement, and tag management systems. You enjoy working cross-functionally and can bridge the gap between technical implementation and business requirements.

You should bring:

  • Strong hands-on experience with Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics (GA4), and event tagging frameworks
  • Proficiency in JavaScript and browser debugging tools
  • A good understanding of cookie consent laws and experience implementing consent logic in tagging environments
  • Experience working in Agile squads or product development environments
  • A passion for clean, reliable data and the ability to proactively identify and resolve implementation issues
