Role: Global Director of Social Data
Location: London
About the role:
We seek a highly accomplished social analytics leader who combines statistical rigour with social-native thinking. You've spent 7-10+ years mastering social media measurement across major platforms; you understand algorithms, audience behaviours, and how culture moves online. You're as passionate about quantifying social impact on business as you are interpreting TikTok trends and internet subcultures. You're a strategic thinker who can translate complex data into compelling narratives for senior stakeholders. You're excited to build something – defining frameworks, selecting tech stacks, and establishing best practices that will scale globally. As an in-house agency, OLIVER is uniquely positioned alongside brands within their businesses, giving you unparalleled access to drive meaningful measurement that matters.
What you will be doing:
- Measurement Vision & Thought Leadership:
- Establish OLIVER/BrandTech Group's definitive POV on social media measurement for modern brands: what matters in 2026 and beyond, how to connect social activity to business outcomes, and what a mature measurement framework looks like.
- Position our measurement capabilities as a competitive differentiator in new business pitches, translating frameworks into compelling narratives that win clients.
- Stay ahead of platform evolution, algorithm changes, and emerging methodologies, continuously advancing our practice.
- Champion the integration of AI and machine learning into analytics workflows - automating data processes, enhancing predictive modelling, enabling real-time trend detection, and unlocking creative performance insights at scale.
- Enterprise Measurement Infrastructure & Products:
- Design and implement a unified measurement system that connects all social accounts we manage globally, creating a single source of truth for social performance and brand impact across the agency.
- Own the social analytics tech stack-evaluate, select, and manage social listening platforms, analytics tools, dashboarding solutions, and data infrastructure.
- Develop standardised, scalable products that can be embedded across our global studios:
- Social listening solution that delivers cultural intelligence and brand health insights
- Social performance dashboarding product that provides consistent, actionable insights across all client accounts
- Build sophisticated measurement frameworks including social-specific attribution models, brand lift methodologies, and predictive analytics that connect social touchpoints to awareness, consideration, and conversion.
- Strategic Advisory & Collaboration:
- Act as trusted advisor to senior clients and internal stakeholders, translating complex social data into strategic recommendations that drive business decisions.
- Guide clients through measurement maturity evolution-from basic reporting to predictive modelling-building roadmaps that advance their social analytics sophistication.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with creative, strategy, and social studio leads to ensure analytics inform campaign development, creative ideation, and optimisation.
- Work closely with data experts and leaders across BrandTech Group agencies, while leading analytics talent within the OLIVER network.
- Team Leadership :
- Recruit, hire, and develop a global team of social data analysts who combine technical excellence with cultural fluency-people who live in the feeds and love social media.
- Foster a learning culture, mentoring team members on analytics methodologies, measurement frameworks, data storytelling, and client communication.
- Lead high-impact presentations for internal teams and clients, using visualization tools (Tableau, Looker, Power BI) to make dense datasets accessible and inspiring.
What you need to be great in this role:
- Social Analytics Mastery & Platform Expertise: 7-10+ years in social media analytics or digital measurement. Deep hands-on experience across TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter/X, Snapchat, LinkedIn, and emerging platforms. Expert understanding of algorithms, content formats, audience behaviors, and native analytics. Proven experience with social listening platforms (Sprinklr, Brandwatch, Talkwalker, Pulsar). Social-native-fluent in internet culture, memes, subcultures, and how trends emerge online.
- Advanced Measurement & Technical Skills: Track record designing measurement frameworks, attribution models, and success metrics aligned to business objectives. Advanced Excel skills. Expert with data visualization tools (Tableau, Looker, Power BI). Experience with multi-touch attribution, marketing mix modelling, or statistical approaches for social measurement. Familiarity incorporating AI/ML and predictive analytics into workflows.
- Strategic Leadership & Client Advisory: Exceptional ability to advise senior stakeholders, translating data into business recommendations. Significant experience presenting complex insights with clarity and impact. Track record for building and mentoring analytics teams. Strong cross-functional collaboration with creative, strategy, and technology teams. Experience supporting new business development and articulating analytics capabilities in pitch situations.
- Entrepreneurial Builder & Storyteller: Excited to build a practice from the ground up. Strategic thinker who balances vision-setting with hands-on execution. Intellectually curious and always pushing boundaries. Exceptional communicator who transforms complex datasets into compelling narratives. Results-driven, focused on proving measurable impact that drives client success and agency growth.
