Job Description
At Ophelos, we believe in a different way to deal with debt. One that puts empathy and understanding front and centre, approaching our customers as individuals - no matter what they're going through.
For too long, people in debt have borne the brunt of poor industry practices. Intimidating tactics, time-consuming customer service and a one-size-fits-all approach that overlooks the reasons anyone can fall into debt in the first place. Meanwhile, businesses suffer too. Poor customer experience translates to poor customer satisfaction, high churn rates, bad brand reputation and ultimately missed opportunities.
That's why we're taking a radically different approach. Pioneering an industry-first AI-native collections platform, we build products that help individuals clear their debts in a way that suits them, whilst providing businesses with an improved customer experience and game-changing insights into their customer base.
Since our launch in 2021, we've worked with some of the UK's leading companies, including Octopus, Scottish Power and Philips - helping millions of people move toward a more stable, debt-free future. In 2023, we were acquired by Intrum, Europe's biggest credit management service and have begun the next phase in our growth - expansion into 17 European markets over the next two years.
The Role - Analystics Lead We're looking for an Analytics Lead to take ownership of our analytics function - shaping how we use data to drive decision-making, while building on a strong foundation laid by our Data & AI and Engineering teams.
This is a hands-on leadership role: you'll contribute directly to our data models and dashboards, guide analytics priorities, and work closely with a small team of analysts to deliver impactful insights. You'll lead by example - providing technical direction, coordinating work, and helping others succeed.
What you'll be doing You'll own the day-to-day direction of analytics work at Ophelos - ensuring that models, dashboards, and metrics are accurate, scalable, and aligned with business goals. You'll support and coordinate the work of our analysts while also contributing directly to high-impact projects.
You'll:
