Customer Data Consultant

Modern and intelligent digital solutions rely on data and customer insights. We are looking for Customer Data Consultants, motivated by providing our clients with solutions that have a measurable business impact. You’ll get to work at the heart of digital sales, gathering, processing and analysing data to resolve exciting business challenges by enabling concrete actions on data.

Who we are

Columbia Road builds seamless and commercially effective customer journeys that create impact. We help our clients get more revenue and more customers, but also to sell better. We are proud of the high customer satisfaction we have achieved as a result of focusing on people and creating concrete, measurable business impact for our clients every day. 

Our tight-knit team consists of business consultants who understand software and of highly talented business-driven design and technology specialists. As a community-led company, we believe in giving a lot of responsibility and freedom to our employees. Instead of line managers and red tape, we offer the tools and resources to all Roadies to make the best possible decisions for their own job and for our community. We offer you a diverse and inclusive workplace, and our extensive onboarding and your fellow Roadies will ensure that you’ll feel comfortable from day one.

The job & what you’d be working on

As a Customer Data Consultant, you will be in a key role in transforming raw data in source platforms into actionable insights that drive marketing automation and analytics success. You'll work closely with client stakeholders to understand their business challenges, assess their current data landscape, and recommend practical solutions in both technology and processes.

With a hands-on approach, you'll help operationalise data, ensuring it delivers real business value. Your expertise will enable clients to unlock the full potential of their customer data, driving smarter decision-making and business growth. You will be in a key role in helping our customers grow their business by operationalising existing data through a hands-on approach.

You’ll be working as a team together with our technology and design consultants in the areas of marketing automation, ecommerce and CRM, for example. All of our consultants are working very hands-on.
