The Insights Lead will be a key member of the HACT Team with overall responsibility for delivery, development and sales of HACT’s Insight Tools – Community Insight and Value Insight. This role encompasses customer relationship management, delivery of consultancy and training, and strengthening our commercial partnerships. The post holder will be responsible for maintaining HACT’s reputation for the provision of robust, quality tools and resources. There are three main components to this role.
Firstly, leading the delivery and development of HACT's Insight tools – Community Insight and Value Insight. On both tools, HACT works closely with our development partner, Oxford Consultants for Social Inclusion (OCSI www.ocsi.co.uk) . The post holder will maintain and develop the on-going relationship with OCSI, liaise regularly with current clients about future development, and work with OCSI to develop new functionality and features within the tools.
Secondly, sales of the tool directly to clients. The post holder will be the main point of contact for both tools and will provide demonstrations of the tools to potential users. The successful candidate will have sales experience, preferably with a B2B focus, and will be confident liaising with potential clients at all levels. For current clients, the postholder will provide quality consultancy and training for users of the tools.
Thirdly, leading on further development of the sales strategy for the Insight tools. This includes examining the current market for both tools and how to expand our market share. Critically, the postholder will deliver on the strategic aims to both retain existing clients and to reach new potential clients. This will encompass exploring after sales strategies, as well as looking at existing and new ways to drive communications to both prospective and existing clients.
The successful candidate will be able to evidence skills in these areas and will possess strong interpersonal skills, alongside the ability to strategically lead the development and implementation of programmes of work. This post will suit a candidate who is data driven, with enthusiasm for understanding how information can help users improve processes, inform decisions, and facilitate conversations across their businesses.
