We’re looking for a Data and Systems Manager to build, develop and own the data infrastructure, reporting and systems that power Sisters & Seekers as we continue to grow.

This role is all about accuracy, automation, scalability and turning data into better business decisions.

Data and Reporting

• Build a full data and reporting suite from scratch, covering trading, marketing, product, stock, operations, customer and finance.
