About the role
We’re looking for a visionary and analytical Head of Insights to launch and lead TravelPerk’s first insights function - transforming data into stories that spark attention, build trust, and shape the conversation around business travel, expense management, and the future of work.
This is a rare opportunity to build something from the ground up. You’ll blend the curiosity of a researcher with the voice of a storyteller - mining trends from our product and platform data, commissioning original research, and publishing content that sets the agenda in our industry.
We want to be bold. We want to be useful. And we want to be talked about. This role sits at the heart of that ambition.
What you’ll do- Build a new function. Design and launch a brand insights capability that powers our thought leadership, content strategy, PR and campaign messaging.
- Create standout content. Deliver original, data-led stories - from single powerful charts to long-form reports and sharp opinion pieces - that elevate our brand and point of view.
- Leverage proprietary data. Work closely with our data teams to uncover trends in travel behaviour, expense policy, and the modern workplace using TravelPerk’s platform data.
- Commission research. Identify gaps and lead third-party surveys or market studies to deepen and validate our insights.
- Drive rhythm and relevance. Establish a publishing cadence that builds familiarity and anticipation with our target audience (e.g. weekly, monthly, quarterly drops).
- Work across the business. Partner with the wider team across marketing, product, finance and data team to design to align insights with go-to-market efforts and campaign calendars.
- Measure what matters. Define and track success through reach, engagement, share of voice, and audience growth - not short-term lead metrics.
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience in a senior brand insights, research-led content, or strategic thought leadership role - ideally within B2B SaaS, fintech, media, or professional services.
- A portfolio that shows you can turn data into stories that inform, surprise and resonate - whether through visuals, reports, or narrative content.
- Confident with data - comfortable briefing analysts, digging into dashboards, or interpreting trends. (SQL or BI tools a plus, but not essential.)
- Strong editorial and storytelling instincts with a sharp eye for what makes content valuable and shareable.
- Skilled at collaborating across marketing, product, finance, data and comms - and able to work independently when needed.
- A bias for action and experimentation. You’re not waiting for the perfect dataset - you’re out to find what’s interesting and get it in front of the right people.
- Curious about business travel, finance, tech, and the cultural shifts shaping how we work.

How we work
Our Vision is for a world where TravelPerk is the platform for human connection in real life (IRL). We take an IRL-first approach to work, where our team works together in person 3 days a week. For roles in Customer Care, this can be up to 5 days per week in the office. As such, this role requires you to be within commuting distance of our hubs. We fundamentally believe in meeting in real life to improve connectivity, productivity, and creativity, ultimately making us a great workplace.
At TravelPerk, we prioritize experience and potential over academic qualifications for this role. We believe that talent and ability aren't always reflected in formal credentials.
TravelPerk is a global company with a diverse customer base—and we want to ensure that the people behind our product reflect that. We're an equal opportunity employer, meaning you're welcome at TravelPerk regardless of your appearance, where you're from, or anything else that makes you.
All official communication from TravelPerk comes from @travelperk.com email addresses, our verified social media channels, or recruiters listed on our official LinkedIn page.
