Who we are

Born Social is a global social media agency that brings social-first thinking to the brands of tomorrow.

For the last 10 years, we’ve helped brands navigate and harness the chaos of social, bringing method to the madness - for household names like Guinness, Primark and Ford, and the next generation of brands like Nando’s, Peloton and Fever-Tree.

As a proud B Corp, we care about People, Planet and Profit in equal measure - building a business and a culture where social-first talent can thrive.

We’re proud to be part of Croud - a global, full-service digital marketing agency. Together, we operate as a unique scaled network of Intelligent, Creative Specialists, delivering better brand outcomes and unlocking potential for our people, our clients, and our communities.

This is a Croud role, focused on bridging the gap between Croud (Media) and Born Social (Creative).

We’re looking for a Creative Analytics Director to elevate our approach to data and analytics and prove the value of social-first creativity for our clients. A successful candidate has an entrepreneurial spirit, can engage clients in creative insights, and can drive strategic thinking into client solutions.

️ What you'll be doing:

Leading the Creative Analytics Practice
Define and evolve our approach to measuring creative effectiveness, positioning Born Social as a leader in social-first analytics.
Thought Leadership
Act as the internal and external voice of creative analytics, elevating Born Social & Croud’s profile through innovative thinking, industry contributions, client workshops, and thought leadership publications.
Measurement Frameworks
Develop, implement, and oversee measurement frameworks that clearly demonstrate the impact and effectiveness of our creative output across client campaigns.
Provide senior-level strategic consultation to clients, helping them understand, adopt, and leverage best-in-class measurement solutions.
Integration with Croud & Born Social
Act as the primary connection point for Born Social to the wider Croud analytics practice, ensuring alignment, collaboration, and the adoption of best practices across the group.
Team Leadership and Development
Lead and mentor the Creative Analytics team, developing talent, growing expertise, and fostering a culture of curiosity and continuous improvement.
Proactively explore and introduce new analytics methodologies, tools, and technologies to continuously enhance our offering.
Business Growth & New Business Support
Contribute actively to new business initiatives, representing the analytics practice in pitches, proposals, and client engagements.

Thought Leader: Proven ability to establish thought leadership in analytics and measurement, including speaking engagements, published content, or industry recognition.
Strategic Mindset: Highly skilled in developing and implementing measurement frameworks, capable of translating complex data into clear, actionable insights.
Collaborative Connector: Adept at building relationships across internal teams and external client stakeholders, aligning objectives, and delivering impactful solutions
Technical Proficiency: Familiarity with advanced analytics techniques, tools (e.g., Datorama, Tableau), and methods such as Marketing Mix Modelling, attribution modelling, and A/B testing. Coding experience (Python, SQL) is advantageous but not essential. Experience with social analytics tools (Sprinklr preferred) and familiar with social platform metrics (eg. Meta, TikTok, Pinterest, Snap).
Growth-Oriented Leader: Ambitious and driven to continually elevate our analytics offering, inspire your team, and deliver measurable client impact.

At Croud, our vision centres around the idea of unlocking potential. We do this by elevating everyone in an inclusive and progressive culture, empowering individuals to deliver their best work.
