3. Analytics & Program Performance

• Ensure the team delivers rigorous, timely program performance analytics across all Exec Ed offerings - covering funnel performance, submit-to-registration conversion, and cohort-level outcomes.

• Own the registration forecasting function for Exec Ed, ensuring forecasts are accurate, consistently produced, and clearly communicated to business stakeholders.

• Drive the team toward analytical best practices including the use of consistent methodologies, clean data hygiene, and a push toward automation where appropriate.

• Lead or sponsor program performance conversations with senior internal stakeholders, stepping in where Director-level presence is required.

4. Portfolio Performance & Partner Reporting

• Maintain a portfolio-level view of Exec Ed program health - tracking trends, identifying systemic risks, and ensuring leadership has a clear picture of the business at all times.

• Oversee partner reporting ensuring that analytics delivered to university partners are accurate, well-presented, and reflect the full scope of program performance.

• Oversee contact strategy analytics and customer journey analytics for Exec Ed, ensuring the team is building the right frameworks to measure and optimize the learner experience.

• Partner with the VP of Analytics and CMO on portfolio-level strategy, cross-functional priorities, and Exec Ed business planning.

• Strong command of demand generation analytics, media spend management, and enrollment or registration funnel performance.

• Experience engaging with external partners or clients in an analytics capacity  -  you are comfortable in the room with senior stakeholders.

• Ability to operate with autonomy in a Cape Town-based role while maintaining close alignment with US-based leadership.

• Excellent communication skills  -  you present analytical findings clearly and confidently to executive and partner audiences.

• Proficiency in analytics and BI platforms (Tableau, Looker, or equivalent) and strong SQL or equivalent querying skills.
