Bumble Inc. is seeking a Product Analytics Manager that will lead and work alongside a team of analysts and data scientists to partner with business stakeholders across product and revenue in support of critical business decisions for Badoo, BFF, and other apps. This is a unique opportunity for an emerging analytics leader that enjoys the fast paced environment of a growing company, has experience in product analytics and has a passion to lead a team helping the Bumble Inc. mission to foster kind connections.

You would ideally have a background in product analytics at either a dating, social, gaming or other relevant tech company, with proven experience of driving commercial impact through applying analytics to critical product problems.

You bring experience of working with complex sources of data and use that knowledge to partner with your particular product or audience domain, naturally connecting product, revenue, and broader customer data sources, taking a holistic approach to find answers.

You enjoy developing and leading a team of multi-skilled analysts, data scientists, and analytics engineers to efficiently produce insights that inform decision-making. You should be passionate about continual improvement, both personally and for the team, and you always look for feedback to strive for higher quality of deliverables.

You understand the high-level business model of the company and the primary drivers and output metrics to efficiently receive a stakeholder request, draft a project/insights brief and proactively ask for additional scope clarity where necessary.

Remaining laser-focused on the "so what" of the findings, and how the insights support business decisions, you take an integrated perspective to analytics, considering all the potential drivers to a problem, reviewing existing knowledge and bringing in expertise for advice from other teams.
