Add expected salary to your profile for insightsAt Bellroy, data isnt an afterthoughtits a strategic lever, backed by leadership and embedded into decision-making at every level. As we grow, we''re tackling bigger, more complex questions, and we''re ready for a data leader who wants to do more than report on the past.

You''ll collaborate with department leaders who expect decisions to be backed by evidence, not opinion they depend on it to shape strategy and guide decisions that drive growth.But this isnt a role for someone who just directs traffic. Youll be hands-on validating hypotheses, reviewing analytical models for rigour and relevance and designing frameworks that guide how we approach problems and decision-making.
