This independent consulting engagement is designed for a seasoned expert who brings a point of view on modern measurement, a track record of delivering high-impact analytical solutions, and the ability to influence senior stakeholders.

In this capacity, you will help shape how analytics drives decision-making across client engagements—establishing forward-looking frameworks, advising on complex analytical initiatives, and ensuring insights translate into meaningful business outcomes.

This is a great opportunity to advise and work alongside Elevate leadership and client teams to advance the sophistication, scalability, and commercial impact of analytics.

  • Serve as a trusted advisor to both internal stakeholders and clients on complex measurement and data challenges.
• Analytics Solutions & Framework Design
  • Guide scalable, cross-channel measurement frameworks that connect analytical outputs to business performance and ROI.
  • Advise on the design and execution of advanced analytical initiatives (e.g., marketing mix modeling, experimentation, attribution).
  • Establish best practices and quality standards across analytical methodologies, outputs, and storytelling.
• Client Engagement & Delivery Support
  • Partner on the scoping and delivery of sophisticated analytics engagements, contributing to solution design and, where appropriate, client discussions.
  • Translate complex analytical findings into clear, compelling narratives tailored to senior and executive audiences.
  • Identify opportunities to deepen analytics impact within client engagements and support the expansion of services.

• Strong commercial acumen, including experience with scoping, pricing, proposals and business development activity.
• Demonstrable experience building and maintaining senior client relationships, with the credibility to act as a trusted strategic partner.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills — able to translate complex analytical concepts into clear, compelling narratives for non-technical and C-level audiences.
• Awareness of industry changes in data and measurement, including first- and third-party data solutions, clean rooms, AI/ML and the evolving martech and adtech ecosystems.

Requirements

• Experience in a professional services, consultancy or agency environment with exposure to client portfolio management.
