- Define the positioning and brand strategy for the data business within the wider Talos group
- Build a high-performing, motivated team with a strong sense of ownership and shared identity
What you bring
- Proven experience leading a business unit or owning a P&L, ideally at a market data, index or financial data provider
- A track record of turning around or growing a business, with clear, measurable results
- Strong data product expertise, including monetisation, packaging, pricing and go-to-market for both self-service and enterprise models
- A background in capital markets, with a strong understanding of and conviction about digital assets
- Demonstrated ability to influence and deliver through cross-functional teams without direct authority
- Experience building and leading research, product or data science teams
