At GWI we're always looking for extraordinary people who thrive on making an extraordinary impact. Right now we're looking for a Senior Insight Manager to play a key role in our Insight Services team in London. If that's you, and making a difference gets you out of bed in the morning, keep reading. It could be the start of something, well, extraordinary.
Sounds great, what will I be doing? 🤔
As our Senior Insight Manager you'll lead a team of analysts focused on uncovering data-driven narratives that shape how brands understand and engage their audiences. You'll oversee large-scale reporting projects, transforming GWI's rich datasets into compelling insights, reports, and presentations that surface the unexpected and sharpen client strategy. You'll also partner closely with Revenue teams, contributing to RFPs and proposals to support a strong pipeline of new opportunities.
A few things you'll be responsible for:
👉 Lead and develop a team of analysts — overseeing deliverables for accuracy, quality, and efficiency while supporting their growth and development.
👉 Lead large-scale reporting projects for our biggest clients, surfacing trends and stories that align with their objectives.
👉 Own RFP and proposal responses to showcase GWI's insight capabilities and support pipeline growth — including running client presentations, meetings, and workshops.
It's also fun; shaking things up is what working for GWI is all about. You'll need to be flexible, comfortable with continuous change, and working in a high-tempo environment.
What do I need to bring with me? 🧳
You'll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires. You don't have to tick all the boxes right away; the important thing is that you're willing to learn. Here's what the team will be looking for in you:
👉 Proven experience managing projects and senior client relationships.
👉 A talent for data storytelling — translating numbers into narratives and surfacing insights that challenge assumptions or reveal something new.
👉 Exceptional attention to detail and a flair for writing clear, engaging content.
👉 Proficiency in Microsoft Office and Google Slides; comfortable running client presentations, workshops, and meetings.
👉 Demonstrated line management experience, with a track record of developing analysts and managing team performance.
Equally important is attitude. We want people who think big (to make an impact), ask why (to find a better way), and show respect (to everyone, at every level, all the time). Those are our values, and they're a big part of what we're looking for in you.
What We Offer 🧘
At GWI, you’ll find meaningful work, visible impact, and a culture that empowers you to do your best. Our package includes:
- Time to recharge – 25 days’ annual leave, plus office closures over the holidays.
- Health & wellbeing – Health cash plan, enhanced family benefits, carer days, and mental health support.
- Financial benefits – Competitive salary, 4% pension matching, and recognition programs that celebrate success.
- Flexibility & balance – Flexitime, early Friday finishes, hybrid and remote options, plus a “work from home” budget.
- Career growth – Accredited learning, leadership development, and global career mobility.
- Community & impact – DE&I initiatives, volunteering opportunities, donation matching, and payroll giving.
Put all that together and GWI is the friendliest, most fulfilling place any of us has ever worked.

As a Disability Confident employer, we welcome applications from disabled candidates and are committed to making adjustments throughout the hiring process—whether that's extra time, materials in advance or a different format, breaks, an adjusted interview format, assistive tools, or flexible scheduling.
