Analytics Lead, Content Discovery Domain

Key Skills

Data Discovery, Design, Leadership Skill, Risk Analytics

Job Description

We're looking for awesome people to join Wolt to either Analytics Lead role in Berlin, Helsinki or Stockholm. We have Data Analysts and Business Intelligence Developers working as embedded data professionals in different business domains and now we’re looking to grow to the next level of maturity and establish proper analytics teams in these domains. 

We are looking for the Content Discovery domain to be taken over and built from scratch hence you need to be prepared for hands-on and people management exposure at the same time.

The particular domain experience would be amazing to have. 

For an analytics leader, Wolt’s fast-moving business as a local three-sided marketplace offers a demanding but rewarding environment to grow one’s skills in modern analytics. You get to learn a lot, lead a team, grow a team, drive impact via analytics and work with the best people. What could be better than that?

About the role and our humble expectations

It’s all about passion for data, measuring impact and delivering insights

What we hope from you is that you first and foremost identify yourself as an analytics enthusiast. No matter what the subject of analysis is, you want to deeply understand the problem statement, mechanics of the business and data generation processes as well as deliver insights and impact via analytics. Coming up with ways to measure the incremental business impact of the changes in our platform and operations is the key theme for everyone working in analytics at Wolt. 

What does success in these roles look like?

Our stakeholders turn to Analytics for objective and reliable measurements and insights. Success in your domain area means that you together with your team members a) establish a solid experimentation culture with your Product stakeholders, b) provide Operations stakeholders with reliable tracking of the business metrics (that you help to design) and c) provide all stakeholders with data-informed guidance and recommendations on things to improve and work on.

Experience in one of the domains we are building up is essential as we want to see a leader who’s not only passionate about analytics in general but also applying it in a certain domain. 

Will I get to do hands-on data work?

We are looking for both team leads, who would split their time 50/50 between hands-on work and team leadership, and more senior leaders who most likely have 0-20 % of the time to allocate to hands-on work. In general here at Wolt, we value do-ers so even in senior leadership roles we value that if need be you can do the hands-on work.

Our humble expectations

How much people-leadership experience I should bring to the table?

We are primarily looking for people with experience in analytics leadership roles as we foresee that many of the domain-specific analytics teams will grow to be teams with subteams. This is especially true for domains where we don’t have any leads at the moment. In those domains, we’re looking for people who know how to scale analytics organisations. However, we do also have team leadership roles in areas like marketing, advertising and content discovery where we are willing to consider candidates with first experience in team leadership and who have a strong desire to grow.

Analytics is a team effort

You’ll also need to be the representative of your function towards the rest of the organisation, so strong communication and presentation skills are needed. As analytics is a team effort you have to be a cultural leader that cares for the well-being and constant improvement of your team members.

Next steps

The position will be filled as soon as we find the right person, so make sure to apply as soon as you realise you really, really want to join us!

If you want to check up on your application or have any further questions about the position, you can turn to Talent Acquisition Partner / Analytics, Michal Szafraniec at any given time.

Our offering to you

Lots of room to build the direction of analytics at Wolt. Our Product and Operations organisations will be growing too, meaning that you have the chance to build the team around you and shape the way the organisation works with data and analytics. 

You can choose the location from our tech hubs Helsinki, Berlin or Stockholm. You have the chance to decide the ways of working - a hybrid, at the office, or remote within the locations above. Read more about our remote setup. 

In addition to our country-specific benefits, our compensation package includes a monthly salary based on your expertise and equity. The latter makes it exceptionally easy to be excited about our company growing and doing well, as you'll own a piece of the pie. 

You would get to work in a company culture where we take ownership beyond the obvious, do common things uncommonly well, we think big but stay humble, do right by people, we treat others kindly and justly, recognise that if we don’t learn, we won’t stay still but fall behind and keep in mind that Luke was Yoda’s greatest achievement.
