COMMERCIAL ANALYTICS

Location: Cambridge, UK – This position offers flexible working options, including predominantly remote work. Applicants should be based (or willing to relocate) within a comfortable commuting distance of our office to attend onsite as required.

This is a 18 months fixed term contract.

Want to sit at the intersection of tech, data, and strategy,  where your clarity directly shapes what gets funded and shipped?

Reporting to the Associate Director of Strategic Portfolio Management, you’ll own the day-to-day delivery oversight of Jagex’s technical and data initiatives. You’ll keep our portfolio view accurate and current, giving leaders clear visibility of delivery health, dependencies, risks and commercial impact enabling prioritisation to be based on reality. Sitting between technical execution and commercial strategy, you’ll help unblock complex programmes, surface trade-offs, and keep our highest-value work moving with confidence and transparency.

What you’ll be doing:

• Own Jagex’s technical & data portfolio view, keeping timelines, milestones, dependencies and ownership accurate so leaders can prioritise with confidence.
• Align commercial, Technology and Data plans, ensuring sequencing and resourcing make sense so we deliver the highest-impact outcomes first.
• Bring structure to priority technical initiatives, creating clarity and coordination so delivery stays focused, paced, and outcome-driven.
• Spot what’s blocked or drifting early and intervene fast, surfacing options and trade-offs so decisions get made and momentum returns.
• Proactively manage cross-portfolio risks and dependencies, reducing surprises so teams can execute without constant firefighting.
• Provide a single, trusted view of delivery health, translating technical progress into business and financial outcomes for exec and board forums.
• Facilitate collaboration and clarify ownership across teams, closing data gaps so everyone is working from the same reality.
• Evolve our portfolio practices and tools, improving transparency and governance so delivery confidence increases quarter after quarter.

What we’re looking for: 

• Proven experience in a technology, data, or programme portfolio function at senior stakeholder level.
• Demonstrable understanding of complex technology/data delivery, including cross-team dependencies and delivery constraints.
• Strong analytical track record, producing accurate portfolio data and decision-ready insight on health, risk, and impact.
• Proven ability to translate technical detail into business outcomes, including trade-offs and financial implications.
• Experience across Agile, waterfall and hybrid delivery frameworks.
• Demonstrable experience producing exec/board-level reporting for governance and prioritisation.
• Working knowledge of Jira, Confluence and Airtable (or equivalent).
• eCommerce programme exposure; experience in gaming, SaaS, or digital environments is a strong bonus.

What we offer:

When you join Jagex you can look forward to a generous Perks & Benefits package including:

• Private Healthcare, including Dental Plan.
• Discretionary annual performance bonus.
• Minimum 6% Pension contributions.
• Life Insurance.
• Enhanced family leave policies from day 1.
