In Short

As the Head of Analytics and Strategy Enablement for APAC, you will lead the newly established analytics function dedicated to the region, reporting directly to the Finance Director, APAC.

In addition to the traditional sell-out data analysis, your primary focus in APAC will be to decode the complexities of our D2C Retail (Physical & Digital) and Marketplaces. You will be the bridge that connects the dots between disparate data sources—merging operational metrics (store traffic, online conversion, inventory) with financial outcomes. Your mandate is to elevate the analytical capabilities of the APAC Finance team, moving us beyond simple reporting to predictive modeling and strategic decision-making.

Your Mission

Build the Function: Build, lead, and develop a high-performing APAC Analytics and Strategy Enablement team in Finance, fostering a culture of neutral data-driven decision-making.
Elevate the "One-Truth" View: Architect a framework that connects the dots between fragmented data sources (e.g., Digital Marketplaces, POS data, Local/global BI, ERP) and links them directly to final finance data to ensure accuracy and consistency together with global commercial analytical team.
D2C & Marketplace Intelligence: Develop standardized, holistic performance reports specifically for Retail and Digital Marketplaces. Deep dive into channel-specific KPIs—including traffic quality, conversion rates, and basket size—to explain financial variance.
Sell-Out & Inventory Dynamics: Lead the monitoring of all channels' sell-out data against in-channel inventory levels. Proactively identify stock-outs or inventory build-ups in specific marketplaces/stores and translate these insights into actionable strategies.
Marketing Efficiency (ROAS): Partner with digital/marketing teams to analyze China Omni-channel marketing spend. Move beyond "vanity metrics" to calculate true Marketing Return on Ad Spend (ROAS) and its direct correlation to the P&L.
Planning Support (Bottom-Up Modeling): Partner with the Controlling team during budget cycles to pressure-test assumptions. Provide the "bottom-up" view—using granular sell-out trends and external benchmarks—to validate the "top-down" financial targets.
Commercial P&L Analysis: Enrich the Finance team's monthly P&L review by bridging financial variance to operational drivers. Provide the "commercial why" behind the numbers
Strategic Initiatives: Act as a strategic partner to APAC leadership to lead the execution of strategic initiatives, such as developing market entry plans, new platform frameworks, or Trade Terms simulations.
Global and cross-functional Alignment: Act as a conduit between global and regional teams, cascading global analytic insights into the APAC region while ensuring unique APAC marketplace dynamics are understood at the global level. At the same time, work with data scientist, functional analysts to build up the cross-functional alignment.

Our Story

In the APAC region, home to the world’s most advanced digital ecosystems and a rapidly expanding footprint of premium physical stores, APAC is the growth engine of On. Our customer journey is fluid: it spans from the algorithmic complexity of platforms like Tmall and Rakuten to the immersive, high-touch experience of our flagship Retail stores in Tokyo, Shanghai, and Melbourne.

We are looking for a visionary leader to help us decode this Omni-channel complexity. As the Head of Analytics and Strategy Enablement, you aren't just crunching numbers; you are building the "brain" of our regional operations. You will step into a landscape where data is often fragmented between Point-of-Sale (POS) systems, digital apps, and marketplace backends. Your challenge will be to weave that chaos into a clear, strategic narrative that connects footfall to web traffic and in-store conversion to digital ROI. This is your opportunity to define how a high-growth brand wins across both the digital and physical worlds.

Meet the Team

You will join the APAC Finance & Operations Leadership Team, a diverse group of professionals who view Finance not as a back-office function, but as the commercial co-pilot of the business.

Your Leader: You will report directly to the Finance Director, APAC, a leader who values actionable insights over static reports and is looking for a strategic thought partner to help shape the region’s financial roadmap.
Your Partners: You will work in lockstep with the Controlling, Data Scientists, and functional analytical team, to help secure the financial framework and unlock the commercial drivers.
The Culture: We operate with a "startup mindset" within a global scale-up. We are data-hungry, fast-paced, and collaborative. We don't just ask "what happened?"—we ask "what’s next?" and we look to you to provide the answer.
