Job Description

About the Role

At Wise, our Staff Analyst is one of our most senior individual contributor roles in Analytics.

A Staff-level Analyst at Wise is a senior IC who defines and owns the analytical direction for a broad problem space or domain — identifying the right problems to solve, shaping priorities and ways of working, setting the measurement approach, building scalable solutions, and influencing senior stakeholders to drive outcomes across multiple teams.

• You'll work closely with teams and leaders across Wise, including Product, Engineering, Operations and other business functions.
• Rather than being focused on a single team or squad, your impact will span a broader domain, helping to connect priorities, identify opportunities and improve how we use data to make decisions.
• You'll connect the dots across teams, identify where approaches are fragmented, and help create more consistent and scalable ways of working, measuring performance and solving problems.
• This is a role for someone who can be both a best-in-class technical leader and a strong hands-on deliverer — setting direction and standards while still getting deep into the work when needed.

What you'll do

• Own and shape the analytical direction for a broad problem space or domain, with impact extending across multiple teams.
• Identify the highest-value problems to solve and help set priorities across that space, connecting analytical work to wider business goals.
• Partner with teams across Product, Engineering, Operations and other business functions to influence strategy, priorities, decision-making and ways of working.
• Connect the dots across teams, spotting where similar problems are being solved differently and helping unify approaches where it creates value.
• Partner with senior cross-functional stakeholders to challenge assumptions, create alignment and influence direction.
• Lead large, complex analytical initiatives from problem definition through to measurable business or customer impact.
• Design strong measurement, experimentation and performance frameworks that help teams understand outcomes and make better decisions.
• Build scalable data solutions, frameworks and analytical approaches that can be reused across teams and domains.
• Champion technical excellence across SQL, data modelling and analytical engineering.
• Mentor other Analysts and raise the technical and analytical bar across Wise.

What you'll bring

• Strategic thinking — you can own a broad problem space, identify what matters most and connect analytical work to wider company goals.
• Best-in-class technical capability — expert SQL, strong data modelling skills and a track record of personally delivering complex analytical work.
• Cross-functional partnership — you've worked closely with teams across different functions, helping shape direction and decisions rather than operating as a downstream reporting function.
• Cross-team thinking — you naturally spot connections between teams, identify duplication or inconsistency, and create approaches that scale beyond a single team or function.
• Senior stakeholder influence — you're comfortable working with senior leaders, challenging constructively and shaping how teams make decisions.
• High autonomy — you create clarity where there is ambiguity, proactively identify opportunities and don't need a neatly defined problem handed to you.
• Product, operational and business judgement — you understand the trade-offs behind the numbers and focus on customer and business impact, not just analysis.
• Experimentation and measurement expertise — you can define hypotheses, success metrics and robust ways to measure outcomes, adapting your approach to different types of problems and domains.
• Technical leadership without people management — you lead through expertise, standards, frameworks, mentoring and the quality of your own delivery.
