Senior Product Analyst

What you'll be doing

Future is a global publishing powerhouse with a rich history of technical innovation. This position sits at the intersection of Product, Data, and Strategy.

We are looking for a Senior Product Analyst to drive strategy. You will be the analytical engine behind our commercial growth, but your value lies in translating numbers into decisions.

You will be a central architect of our Hypothesis-Based Roadmap (HBR) process. We don't just need someone to pull the numbers; we need someone to drive the hypothesis.

You will work directly with Product Leads to challenge assumptions, originate new ideas, and ensure our roadmap is focused on high-probability commercial wins. You will apply an econometric mindset—looking at cause, effect, and yield—to help us understand not just what happened, but why it happened and what we should do next.

• Driving the HBR (Hypothesis-Based Roadmap)
• Lead via Hypothesis: You will actively participate in HBR meetings, bringing your own data-backed ideas to the table. You won’t just validate requests; you will originate opportunities.
• The "Challenger" Voice: You are confident to challenge the status quo. If a roadmap item lacks a commercial case, you have the mandate to push back—using data to explain why—and guide the team toward better outcomes.
• 2. Commercial Analysis & Forecasting
• Modelling Growth: You will build models (forecasts, impact sizing, yield analysis) to predict the outcome of product changes.
• Revenue Focus: You connect product metrics (clicks, retention) to commercial metrics (Revenue, Yield, LTV). You ensure every feature we build has a clear line of sight to business value.
• 3. Storytelling & Influence
• Narrative over Numbers: You can synthesise complex data into a clear, compelling 1-page narrative for leadership. You answer the "So What?" before it’s even asked.
• Bridge the Gap: You act as the translator between the technical data teams and the commercial/product stakeholders.
• 4. Experimentation & Insight
• Validating Success: You design the measurement framework for our launches (A/B tests, pre/post analysis). You ensure we are intellectually honest about our wins and losses.

Experience that will put you ahead of the curve

• Strategic & Commercial Skills (The Priority)
• Communication & Influence: You are an exceptional communicator. You can articulate a complex argument simply and influence senior stakeholders.
• Econometric Mindset: You don't need a PhD, but you need to think like an economist. You understand concepts like seasonality, cannibalisation, and yield management.
• Challenger Attitude: You are proactive. You don't wait for a ticket to tell you what to analyse; you look for the problems that need solving.
• Technical Skills
• Data Fluency (SQL): You are proficient in SQL and can independently query complex databases to get the answers you need.
• Modelling: You are an expert at modelling scenarios and forecasts (Excel/Google Sheets is fine, provided the logic is sound) - progress over perfection.
• Tools: Experience with visualisation tools (Tableau, Looker, PowerBI) to help others see the trends you see.
• Note: Python/R is a "nice to have," but not required. We value your ability to derive insight and drive strategy over your ability to write complex code.
