Every Data Team Has a Story to Tell

For the last 30 years, many have relied upon the companies brand to attract top talent, however in 2024, we need to tell a very specific data team story to achieve a competitve edge

There’s only one thing that dictates whether an organisation’s Data & Analytics efforts will be successful or not, the calibre and ability of its people! The better the people, the better the results, help yourself stand out through employer branding! But, hiring the very best talent is difficult and many leaders have surrendered to the fact that it’s hard and they can’t compete, which isn’t true.

For the last 30 years, most organisations have relied upon their company’s employer value proposition (EVP) to attract top talent, however, the way people consume information and make employment decisions has changed drastically.

A company-wide EVP is no longer enough to grab the attention of the A-Players that every organisation wants to hire. Those people aren’t looking at Job Adverts, they’re inundated with emails and messages from potential employers.

What you need is a way to stand out from the crowd. What is required is a very specific Data & Analytics story, told at scale
Building the brand of your data & analytics function, both internally and externally is fundamental to attracting and retaining the very best Data and analytics talent; and those who are doing it now, are already seeing massive returns, and some of the benefits can be seen listed here…

Time to hire reduced

Competitive edge

Higher quality applicants

Strong cultural fit

Employee referrals increased

Greater networking opportunities

Career development appeal

Increased credibility & trust
