Senior Manager, Thought Leadership and Industry Insights

We are looking for a credible Senior Manager to lead our thought leadership and industry insights agenda. This role transforms advanced analytics, internal data assets, and market intelligence into compelling, data-backed narratives that support strategic sales initiatives, influence industry conversations, and position the company as a leader in data‑driven decisioning. Success requires deep analytical fluency in Python and SQL, paired with executive storytelling. You will work across Analytics, Product, Sales, and Marketing. You will report to the VP of Analytics Product Build, Innovation, and Scores. You will be fully remote.

You'll have opportunity to:

• Manage our thought leadership strategy, grounded in data analysis and empirical thoughtfulness.
• Use Python and SQL to independently explore datasets, validate hypotheses, and surface unique insights.
• Translate analytical findings, model outputs, and product capabilities into clear, market‑facing narratives that demonstrate value.
• Develop industry perspectives on credit lifecycle optimization, alternative data, machine learning adoption, portfolio risk, fraud, and regulatory trends.
• Support large strategic sales opportunities with analytical framing, benchmarks, and data‑driven proof points that strengthen value propositions.
• Create executive‑ready content—including industry reports, white papers, sales enablement decks, client POVs, and conference presentations.
• Leverage aggregated and anonymized datasets to produce market‑level insights while maintaining compliance.
• Collaborate with Data Science teams to validate assumptions, interpret model behavior, and ensure analytical rigor in published insights.
• Work with Product to translate platform capabilities and analytical innovation into clear, market‑relevant messaging.
• Identify new industry trends using both qualitative indicators and quantitative evidence.
• Represent us externally, presenting analytically grounded insights to senior client and industry audiences.
• Establish standards and review processes to ensure quality, defensibility, and consistency across all thought leadership outputs.
