- How can we use historical data relating to ship refit investment and guest feedback to identify the most impactful areas to invest in the future?

Working with a diverse set of data from purchase transactions, guest profiling and guest feedback surveys. You will be the subject matter expert on the design, analysis, interpretation and visualisation of our customer feedback survey data to maximise meaningful insights and drive business outcomes. This role would have one direct report.
Positioned within our internal structure from CUK15 (entry level) to CUK1 (Brand President), this role is classified as a CUK06, offered as a full-time position, on a fixed term basis, we offer hybrid work including up to two days from home.
