At Yorkshire Building Society, our purpose is rooted in mutualitymaking a positive difference for members, colleagues and communities. Data and AI are central to that mission, enabling smarter decisions, better experiences, stronger resilience and responsible growth that benefits members rather than shareholders.

We’ve built the foundations: modern cloud platforms, board\-ratified architecture and trusted data capabilities. Now, we’re moving decisively from modernising the basics to realising strategic value.

As Senior Manager for the Data Intelligence Centre of Enablement, you will lead the capability that turns those foundations into high\-quality, reusable data productsfuelling insight, decision\-making and measurable value across the Society.

You will drive data delivery excellence and enablement across the organisation, including:

  • Leading the Data Intelligence Centre of Enablement, accountable for enterprise data delivery including Data Design, Modelling, Product Engineering, and Insight development.

  • Building modern, scalable delivery practices that prioritise reuse over reinvention and outcomes over outputs

  • Shifting the organisation toward scalable, self\-serve and federated insight models

  • Uplifting data literacy and capability across business teams through enablement and support

  • Partnering with Data Architecture and Data Platforms to align to enterprise standards and target state
While you won’t own AI delivery, your remit is critical in enabling ithigh\-quality data products are the foundation for everything our AI capabilities depend on.

About You

We’re looking for a credible, delivery\-focused leader who brings depth, judgement and enterprise perspective:

  • A leader who develops talent and capability at pace, embedding a culture of continuous learning, accountability, and high performance

  • Senior leadership experience in data, analytics or data product organisations

  • Strong experience with Microsoft cloud technologies, including Azure\-based data platforms and modern analytics stacks

  • Deep understanding of enterprise data landscapes and scalable cloud architectures

  • Proven ability to design and deliver reusable data products at scale, including legacy migration

  • Strong commercial acumenunderstanding how data drives decisions, efficiency and growth
