The opportunity:
We’re looking for a Data Manager to lead our Data Services team in Luxembourg.
This is a senior player-manager role at the intersection of technical leadership, commercial delivery, and client engagement. You’ll lead a cross-functional team of Data Scientists, Senior BI Engineers, and Data Analysts, and serve as the primary point of contact for internal stakeholders and external clients, from scoping and prioritisation through execution and impact. This is not a purely managerial role. You’ll stay hands-on, building, debugging, and shipping solutions when speed demands it or technical complexity requires your senior judgment. We’re looking for someone who pairs deep technical fundamentals in data, engineering, statistics, and ML with a modern, AI-assisted way of working. You use AI tools to move faster and think bigger, but your instincts and quality bar are rooted in genuine technical mastery, not reliant on it. You can tell when an AI-generated output is wrong, why it’s wrong, and how to fix it. You’ll partner closely with IT to ensure the infrastructure, tooling, and delivery pipelines your team relies on are robust, scalable, and fit for purpose.
