About the role:  
OLIVER is building a global studio across 15 markets to lead our client's organic social presence end to end – from insight and ideation to creative, and community.  
As Analytics Director, you will lead the analytics function behind that work. This is a strategic, hands-on role focused on organic social measurement, audience intelligence, content performance, and insight – not paid media analytics. You’ll define the frameworks, reporting, and ways of working that help teams make better decisions, improve creative output, and give senior clients confidence in where to focus next.  
You will set the direction for how analytics supports our client’s organic social ecosystem across 15 markets. The focus is on building robust measurement frameworks, scalable reporting, clear governance, and high-quality insight that informs channel strategy, content planning, creative optimisation, and audience understanding.  
Working closely with the studio team, strategy and creative leads, and senior stakeholders, you’ll ensure data is used not just to evaluate work, but to improve it. You’ll also help build the analytics discipline: mentoring analysts, setting standards, and identifying where tools, automation, and AI can improve efficiency and unlock new capabilities.

Reporting, Audience Intelligence, and Governance

• Oversee audience intelligence and content performance analysis to understand what resonates, why it performs, and how learnings should inform future content, creative development, and measurement  

• Establish governance for organic social measurement, including standards, definitions, taxonomies, and reporting principles  

Leadership and Client Partnership  


• Lead, mentor, and develop analysts, building capability in insight generation, storytelling, and consultative partnership  

• Own the senior data and insight relationship with the client's brand team, presenting frameworks, findings, and recommendations clearly to senior stakeholders  

• Partner with strategy, creative, community, and market teams to ensure analytics is embedded in planning, decision-making, and learning  

Tools, Automation, and AI  


• Own the analytics and social intelligence toolset across listening tools and reporting environments, including Talkwalker, Meltwater, and data viz platforms
