CarCare Performance & Insights Manager

Job Description

This is the Job

As our CarCare Performance & Insights Manager, you’ll sit at the heart of our strategy and transformation agenda, helping us answer some of our most important commercial questions and turning insight into action.

Working closely with our CarCare Transformation Director and senior leadership team, you’ll combine strategic thinking and strong analytical capability with the practical delivery skills needed to turn recommendations into measurable outcomes. You’ll help us understand what is driving performance, identify opportunities for growth and improvement, and translate priorities into clear, deliverable plans.

This is a broad and fast-moving role for someone who naturally asks, “so what?” of the information in front of them. You could come from strategy consulting, corporate or commercial strategy, commercial insight, project delivery or another highly analytical environment. More important is your ability to bring structure to ambiguity, form a clear point of view and take ownership of moving things forward.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead analysis of strategic and commercial questions, interrogating complex data and translating findings into clear recommendations and actions.
• Support strategic planning and prioritisation by assessing opportunities through commercial impact, customer insight, market intelligence, economics, delivery effort and dependencies.
• Take ownership of selected strategic and transformation workstreams, creating structure around delivery and maintaining momentum across milestones, actions, risks and dependencies.
• Work across Commercial, Operations, Technology, Marketing, Finance and Data to understand business performance, identify opportunities and bring stakeholders together around clear decisions.
• Develop concise, decision ready materials for senior leadership and governance discussions, turning complex information into a compelling story and a clear view of what needs to happen next.
• Bring fresh thinking into CarCare through competitor analysis, market scanning and external insight, challenging existing thinking and identifying opportunities to improve performance or accelerate delivery.

What Do I Need?

You’ll Bring

• Experience in strategy, consulting, commercial strategy, commercial insight, project delivery or another highly analytical environment, with a track record of using insight to solve business problems and influence decisions.
• Strong strategic and structured problem-solving capability. You’ll be comfortable taking an ambiguous question, working out what really matters and building an evidence-based point of view.
• Strong analytical skills and confidence working with complex information and datasets. You’ll be highly capable in Excel and comfortable developing the analysis or commercial modelling needed to support a recommendation.
• Practical project delivery experience, with the ability to take an idea or recommendation beyond the analysis stage, create structure around delivery and keep stakeholders, actions and priorities moving.
• Commercial curiosity and judgement, with a natural instinct to ask, “so what?” and connect analysis to the wider customer, operational and financial implications for the business.
• A proactive and adaptable approach. You’ll enjoy working at pace, bringing energy to new challenges and moving comfortably between strategic thinking, detailed analysis and hands on delivery as priorities evolve.
