On the insights side: collaborating with analytics and research teams across Dow Jones to harmonize metrics, align on a shared view of the customer, and drive insights-led decision making at the senior leadership level. This is a strategy role with a focus on insights-not a market research or analytics role.

• A data-driven storyteller who knows how to use analytics and insights to drive to decisions
• Entrepreneurial: able to put a strategy into action

You Will:

• Lead corporate strategy projects across the consumer portfolio: market entry, portfolio shape, pricing strategy, competitive response
• Work across the Dow Jones consumer group to align metrics and derive insights that unlock growth
• Translate insights into recommendations on roadmap, pricing, and retention
• Track AI, platform, and consumer behavior shifts and feed signal into strategy

You Have:

• 12+ years of experience in strategy and operations roles; including experience at a top-tier consulting firm and/or a high-performing internal corporate strategy/strategy and operations team, with meaningful exposure to data and insights work
• A proven ability to influence senior stakeholders and navigate complex organizations
• Comfort with data tools and architecture
• At least: fluency with AI and ideas about how to use it for synthesis and research; at best: experience deploying AI tools across an analytics or strategy function

• A plus: Media, content, and/or subscription experience
