Description

For episode 9 of our new season, I'm joined by Dr. Simon Jury who is Vice President of Data & Analytics at ASDA (a leading retailer here in the UK).


Simon has decades of experience in the industry and learned his trade at some of the leading names in the world of CRM and data analytics. During this conversation, you'll hear us explore Simon's technical and commercial leadership roles and why he moved globally to perform such roles.


Beyond Simon's extensive knowledge of how to help retailers drive value from data analytics & data science, we will focus on a new softer skill. He shares the heretical thought that it helps as a leader to develop & use your instincts too.


Grounded in the commercial skills he has honed and his years of experience, he reveals when "good instincts" can help a data leader not be constrained when he does not have all the data to make a decision.


Simon is well worth hearing as his track record speaks for itself. I recommend that all those who are currently focussing on developing their technical skills to achieve career success also hear from Simon's "tribe" of data leaders.


Plus you can hear why data scientists should be joining retailers as a "sexy" career move (instead of focussing on tech companies).
