(Senior) Team Lead Data Analytics | Munich | on-site 2 days/week
One of Europe's fastest-growing travel tech scaleups is looking for a senior analytics leader to own one of their core BI teams. It's a real IC responsibility, strategic visibility, and a genuine seat at the table.
The role:
- Lead a team of 4 direct reports within the Business Intelligence department
- You'll help define what AI-native analytics looks like in practice: the tools, the workflows, the standards, the rituals. Your team will use Claude, Cursor, and whatever comes next as core instruments, not novelties. You should already be doing this yourself.
- Engage with senior leadership on strategic projects influencing product strategy, internal operations, and revenue growth
- Support stakeholders across Customer Support, Host Experience, Sales, and Account Management
- Translate complex, multi-stakeholder problems into analytical requirements and communicate findings to both technical and commercial audiences
- Do real analytical work: this is a hands-on lead role, not just a people manager title
- Help shape BI department strategy and the future of AI-powered data products
- Recruit top talent, set clear goals, and develop your team personally and professionally
Stack: AWS (Redshift, Athena, Glue, S3) · dbt · Airflow · Looker · SQL · Python · Git · Jira
What you bring:
- 5+ years of data analytics experience
- Prior people management, this should not be your first leadership role
- Track record of communicating with executive stakeholders and senior decision makers
- Mission-driven, working-backwards mentality: start from business needs, deliver actionable insights
- Strong SQL, Python (or similar), and data visualisation skills
- Genuine AI fluency: active use of tools like Claude Code or similar is part of how they evaluate impact, not a nice-to-have
Why it's worth a look:
- The company treats data as a core decision-making function, not a support layer.
- You'll work on products used by millions of guests and tens of thousands of hosts, with fast iteration cycles and real learning opportunities.
- Up to 8 weeks/year working from another location is part of the deal.
