Head of Marketplace Analytics

Join us as a Head of Marketplace Analytics

Want to do work that really matters?

At Checkatrade, we’re building the UK’s go-to home improvement marketplace. Every day, we help millions of homeowners find the right tradesperson for the job — fast, fair, and without the faff.

As our next Head of Marketplace Analytics , you’ll lead the engine that powers our platform. From setting smart matching logic to forecasting supply and demand, your work will shape how jobs get done and how our business grows. A high-impact role with real-world reach.

Forget long lists. Here’s what you’ll actually spend your time on:

  • Delivering sharp, data-driven decisions that help homeowners find the right tradesperson and help trades grow.
  • Leading a team of analysts and working with data scientists to turn insight into action.
  • Collaborating across Marketplace, Growth, Commercial, Product and Fulfilment to keep jobs moving and the marketplace thriving.
  • Experimenting, iterating, and optimising how we match trades and consumers - making every connection count.

It’s not about ticking every box. It’s about turning up curious, ready to crack on. You’ll do well here if you bring:

  • Marketplace experience - ideally in a platform with complex supply and demand dynamics.
  • Sharp analytics and commercial acumen - SQL, forecasting, ROI modelling and experiment design.
  • Strategic thinking - you build frameworks, not just reports.
  • A collaborative, sleeves-rolled-up mindset.
  • Comfort working closely with data science teams and shaping AI/ML-powered systems - no need to code, but you’ll need to guide.

We believe great work deserves great rewards. Here’s just a taste:

  • Competitive salary + annual bonus or commission (role dependent)
  • Health, well-being and learning support
  • Gym membership, Smart Tech Scheme and Cycle Scheme
  • Birthday/Special day leave
  • Buy & sell holiday scheme
  • 1 week’s paid charity leave and much more!

How we’ll get to know each other:

  • Recruiter screen with a Talent Acquisition Partner
  • 1st stage interview with our VP of Marketplace
  • 2nd stage interview will be a case study with a panel of Senior Stakeholders

If you require any reasonable adjustments during our interview process, please discuss them with your Talent Acquisition Partner.

If this sounds like the place where you can do your best work, we’d love to hear from you, even if you don’t tick every box
