Data & Analytics Enablement Lead

The role and its impact

Xero's G&A Data & Analytics team makes trusted data usable for the teams that keep Xero running, including Finance, HR, Legal, and Workplace. As a Data & Analytics Enablement Lead (Self-Service Enablement Lead), you will own how those teams find, understand and act on data for themselves. You will set the enablement roadmap, define the guardrails that make self service safe, and design the ways of working that let a G&A team answer its own question rather than joining a queue. This covers everything from approved data sources and certified dashboards through to agreed metric definitions and the practical patterns people follow day to day.

Your impact shows up in adoption and confidence. You will partner with senior leaders across Finance and HR to embed data into planning cycles, performance conversations and decision forums, and you will influence the central Data, BI and Governance teams so that G&A needs shape what gets built. Alongside that sits a real capability agenda: lifting data and AI literacy across the function and making responsible data use something people understand and practise, not a policy they skim. You will Go Further by building capability that outlasts any single dashboard, and Go Bold in rethinking how a fast growing organisation uses its own information.
