Shape the Data Strategy. Influence Business Decisions. Drive Growth.

We're partnering with a leading FMCG organisation based in Perth to appoint a high-calibre Head of Data & Analytics. This is a unique opportunity for an experienced data leader to build upon an established data capability and help transform the way the business uses data to drive performance, customer outcomes and strategic decision-making.

This role will suit someone who can operate comfortably at both a strategic and operational level—someone who can translate business objectives into actionable data initiatives while building strong relationships across the executive and leadership teams.

The Opportunity

As Head of Data & Analytics, you will be responsible for defining and executing the organisation's data and analytics strategy, ensuring data becomes a key driver of business performance and competitive advantage.

You will work closely with senior stakeholders across the business to identify opportunities, generate insights, improve decision-making and establish a data-driven culture. This is a highly influential role that requires strong commercial acumen, strategic thinking and the ability to communicate complex concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and execute the organisation's data and analytics strategy.
• Partner with executive and business leaders to identify opportunities where data can drive growth, efficiency and improved decision-making.
• Lead the delivery of analytics, reporting and insight initiatives across multiple business functions.
• Establish frameworks, governance and best practices to maximise the value of organisational data.
• Drive the evolution of business intelligence, reporting and advanced analytics capabilities.
• Build strong relationships with stakeholders across operations, finance, sales, marketing and supply chain.
• Translate complex data into clear, actionable business recommendations.
• Champion a data-driven culture and improve data literacy across the organisation.
• Evaluate emerging technologies and analytics capabilities to support future business needs.

About You

You are a commercially focused data leader who understands that analytics is about delivering business outcomes, not just reporting numbers. You have a strong track record of influencing senior stakeholders, shaping strategy and turning data into meaningful insights that drive action.
You will ideally bring:

• Proven experience in a Head of Data & Analytics, Data Director, General Manager Data, or similar senior leadership role.
• Strong experience developing and executing enterprise-wide data and analytics strategies.
• Demonstrated success delivering strategic insights that have influenced business performance and decision-making.
• Exceptional stakeholder engagement and executive communication skills.
• Experience leading analytics, BI and data initiatives within complex environments.
• Strong commercial acumen and the ability to align data initiatives with broader business objectives.
• Experience establishing data governance, operating models and best practices.
• The ability to balance strategic vision with practical execution.

What's on Offer

• Senior leadership role with significant influence across the organisation.
• Opportunity to shape the future direction of data and analytics within a growing FMCG business.
• High visibility with executive leadership and key decision-makers.
• Strong investment in data, analytics and business transformation initiatives.
• Collaborative and commercially focused culture.
• Competitive executive remuneration package.
