Contract: Permanent
Location: Dartford / Agile
We’re on a mission to become a truly data‑driven organisation — using insight to make smarter decisions, improve services and ensure the voices of our customers are heard at every step.
As our Insight Manager, you will lead our Business Insight function, transforming data into meaningful stories that drive action. You will shape how we understand performance, customer sentiment, and the wider sector picture — ensuring insight plays a central role in shaping our strategy and continuous improvement.
This is both a strategic and hands‑on role, developing advanced analytical outputs and championing how insight is used across the organisation. You’ll lead a small but skilled team of Insight Analysts, supporting transformation projects, benchmarking performance, and ensuring the customer voice influences decision‑making at every level.
You’ll join our forward‑thinking Transformation directorate, a collaborative group working to deliver impactful organisational change. As Insight Manager, you’ll help ensure our colleagues have the insight, research, and customer intelligence needed to truly make a difference.
What you’ll be doing:
- Leading our Insight Team, prioritising analytical projects aligned to corporate strategy and business need
- Applying advanced quantitative analysis to turn data into actionable insight that tells a compelling story
- Using Housemark and wider sector intelligence to measure performance, benchmark, and identify emerging challenges
- Leading the delivery of Tenant Satisfaction Measures — from survey results analysis and performance improvement
- Championing the embedding of customer segmentation across the business to inform service design and decision‑making
- Designing and delivering primary research projects and deep‑deep insight to support service improvement
- Ensuring customer data and insight are represented across transformation projects and strategic initiatives
- Working closely with the Data Team to strengthen reporting and prioritise improvements to customer data quality
- Supporting senior leadership with evidence‑based recommendations, contributing to papers and committee discussions
- Leading business‑wide sharing of insight — clearly communicating what we learn and why it matters
We’re looking for someone with:
- Strong experience in quantitative research, advanced analytics, and turning data into actionable insight
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to simplify complex information for non‑technical audiences
- Experience influencing senior stakeholders and driving performance improvement through data
- Practical knowledge of customer and business insight within service‑led environments
- Expertise with analytical tools (e.g. SPSS, R, SAS) and understanding of good data governance
- An innovative and curious mindset — confident to challenge the status quo and explore new approaches
- Experience managing or developing analysts, leading a collaborative culture with high standards
