ABOUT RAPP

We stand up for individuality. We actively foster an inclusive workplace where diversity and individual difference are valued and leveraged to achieve the agency's vision. And most importantly we value every individual's wellbeing.

As a diversity champion, equal opportunities and disability confident employer and an ardent advocate of flexible working we understand that everyone has unique requirements and needs.

We are a global customer experience agency, but the individual really is at the heart of everything we do. We use data to find out what makes them tick. We use technology to talk to them one-to-one - but to one million at a time. And we use creativity to encourage them to engage, click, buy and bond, again and again.

Each brand is unique and has its own individual challenges. We pride ourselves in rising to each and every one of them, for brands such as KFC, Mercedes Benz, IKEA, and Virgin Media 02.

Us

We are true advocates of Flexible Working. We ask you to work where and when you work best. We'll be honest though, we do love seeing people in the office, because it delivers on our Culture, Collaboration and Connection. For Concentration, work where you'll work best. We call it the 4 Cs.

Learning and Development is important. We all know that. Its why we have a dedicated Learning and Development team and offer regular career conversations and bespoke L&D programmes so that you can leave us with more than when you started.

We recognise that the work of diversity, equity and inclusion calls on all of us. That's why we set up The Neighbourhood. A collective of people, at different stages of the DE&I journey, whether impacted or allies, dedicated to helping our colleagues take ownership and effect change across 4 key pillars; Anti-racism, Disability, Gender & LGBTQ+ and Parents & Carers.

The Health and Wellbeing of our people matters immensely. We offer Coaching opportunities for all through our partnerships with Sanctus (mental health partner who provides online coaching; you can talk about anything, personal or professional) and Sayge (1:1 professional development coaching program). We have 40 trained Mental Health First Aiders across the agency and have Babylon Health (Private GP service) for all.

You're better at work when you feel better in yourself. So, in addition to your annual holiday, you can take a "Me" day and an "Us" day, every year. Your "Me" day is for you to invest in yourself - go after a life goal, meditate, learn to paint, bake cakes or just have a duvet day watching Netflix!

Your "Us" day is all about giving back and helping others - volunteer, pick litter at a local park, hang out with the elderly or raise money for a local charity.

We're progressive and always open to new initiatives, for example we've recently partnered with Fertifa (Leading Fertility and Reproductive Health benefit providers). Because we know the journey to becoming a family isn't always easy (that includes men too), and we support our people through that journey whether you are new parent, experiencing the menopause, or anything else in between.

Whatever stage of life you are at, we make sure you have the tools you need to have a healthy work life balance.

MARKETING SCIENCES

The Marketing Sciences team at RAPP is a driving force behind the agency's success, harnessing the power of data and technology. We are super connectors, bridging the gap between creativity, data and tech to unlock limitless possibilities and disruption.

Our mission is to provide deep insights and a true robust understanding of our clients' businesses and marketing challenges. Our expertise is to empower our agency and the client to make data-driven decisions that directly impact performance and drive measurable results.

From identifying the untapped value of client data to expanding its potential through data capture, rigorous analysis, and statistical techniques, we leave no stone unturned. We are split into 4 disciplines in Marketing Sciences; Data Science, Data Analytics, Data Enablement and Data Visualisation to enable us to deliver against any client data driven challenge.

Together, we will revolutionize the way data is utilised, ensuring that every action we take contributes to the success of our clients and propels the agency forward. Welcome to a future where data and technology and your ideas push the boundaries of what's possible.

YOUR ROLE:

In the Data Analytics team you will ensure both the voice of the customer and CFO are represented in the room with hard evidence. As well as inspiring exceptional customer experiences using data, you will be responsible for ensuring every action we take is directly improving performance against your clients objectives.

As an experienced member of the team, you will thrive managing and mentoring a team of curious analysts.

Whilst no two days will look the same, you'll be accountable for leading client accounts by helping to answer complex strategic questions using data and showcasing an expert understanding of how to deliver personalisation at scale.

In Data Analytics you won't be expected to build advanced segmentations and data science models, but you will have an expert understanding of the art of the possible with data science, know the necessary data required to fuel models and have an ability to spot where a business challenge would be best supported through automation or leveraging the latest modelling techniques.

You will also be a master of the omni-channel landscape and have a strong understanding of how to capture and utilise data across channels, from creating tagging and taxonomy to measurement with web analytics tools.

As the strategic lead you will create straw person approaches for visionary work for client sign-off, as well as overseeing inputs from other members of the team. To drive the right data-driven strategy you will need to persuade our internal teams and clients by exercising strong storytelling capability, as well as ensuring your team are building the required evidence through business casing.

Once you join the team, you will be onboarded to our product suite for driving business transformation, and expected to confidently sell and adapt them to client bespoke challenges. With your experience in data, you will quickly become familiar with the other teams within Marketing Science (Data Science, Data Enablement and Data Visualisation) and be able to expertly articulate their capabilities and offerings to drive cross-selling.

The ideal candidate is ready to jump in. Find problems. Fix them. Build relationships. Stay up-to-date with the latest innovations. Imagine new solutions. Invent them. Do whatever it takes to go above and beyond. And stand up for individuality.
