Help make the world more hospitable
The hospitality industry is uniquely human, and it deserves technology that’s just as inspiring as the people behind it. At Mews, we’re transforming the industry with a platform that helps hotels run smarter, move faster and create better guest experiences.
You’ll work with smart, curious people who care deeply about what they do. You’ll have autonomy and the trust to make good decisions and move quickly. And you’ll enjoy a real sense of purpose as you see the impact of what we’re building.
If you’re motivated by ownership, curiosity and meaningful impact, and are driven to deliver consistent high performance, you’ll feel at home here.
About the role
Let's get into the specifics. It’s impossible to capture every nuance of a role – especially at a rapidly growing company like Mews – but if we had to distil it into a job description (which we do because this is a job description), it would be this:
We’re hiring a Senior Analytics Engineer into our Finance & Operations data team, a highly independent team that owns its platform end to end and supports some of Mews’ most business-critical workflows.
You’ll evolve the pipelines behind Pigment, our planning and forecasting environment, while building much of our people data capability from scratch. It’s a high-impact role combining legacy refactoring, greenfield build work and the shift from reactive delivery to scalable, IPO-ready data practices. This team underpins finance processes that directly affect billing, reporting and decision-making. It runs a dedicated Databricks platform for sensitive finance and people data and partners across FP&A, accounting, treasury, corporate finance, billing, collections, fraud and investor-facing teams. You’ll turn urgent business needs into durable data products, helping the business move from one-off requests and firefighting toward stronger models, better governance and more self-serve solutions. It’s also a chance to raise the bar on how data is used across Mews by helping non-technical stakeholders understand trade-offs, make better decisions and build for the long term.
✅ Your mission, should you choose to accept it:
- Own and improve the data pipelines and infrastructure that support Pigment forecasting, budgeting and planning
- Build and shape the people data domain, including data models, platform foundations and governance patterns across secure Databricks environments
- Translate complex, often ambiguous business needs into practical technical roadmaps
- Partner closely with senior finance stakeholders, including directors and VPs, to turn requests into scalable solutions rather than one-off fixes
- Balance short-term operational needs with longer-term platform quality, maintainability and control
- Help the team reduce reliance on ad hoc firefighting and create stronger foundations for SOX compliance and IPO readiness
- Bring structure, clarity and good engineering judgement to a fast-moving, under-resourced environment
🤝️ You’ll be a great fit if you bring a few of the below with you:
- Proven experience building and maintaining production-grade data pipelines and analytics infrastructure
- Strong hands-on capability with Databricks, SQL and Python
- A track record of working with senior non-technical stakeholders and explaining technical trade-offs in a clear, credible way
- Experience operating in scale-ups or other high-growth environments where ambiguity, pace and prioritisation are part of the job
- Strong commercial judgement and the ability to connect technical work to business outcomes
- Confidence working across both strategic projects and operationally important day-to-day work
We’d be particularly excited by candidates who have:
- FP&A, finance or wider business planning experience
- Worked on systems or pipelines connected to forecasting, budgeting or financial reporting
- Built data models or platforms that support business-critical reporting and decision-making
- Experience bringing order, governance and sustainability to environments that are still maturing
- Comfort using AI tools to improve problem-solving, communication and day-to-day productivity

Life at Mews
We’re an equal opportunities employer. We value teams that reflect the diversity of the customers and communities we serve. Different perspectives make better ideas, stronger products and a more welcoming company.
We also believe transparency is important when deciding if you're the right fit. Mews is an ambitious, high-pressure environment of continuous learning and high standards. Success here requires resilience, adaptability and a willingness to solve difficult problems.
A few things that define how we work:
- High autonomy means high responsibility. People are expected to take ownership and drive outcomes. There isn’t a detailed playbook for everything, and that’s part of what makes the work challenging – and rewarding.
- Change is constant. We’re growing quickly and adapting as we scale. Teams, processes and priorities continue to evolve, and only people who stay curious and agile will thrive.
- We’re remote-first, not relationship-free. Flexibility is core to how we work, but strong relationships still matter. Our teams are global, so we need expert collaborators and communicators to help us move forward together.
- AI is an integral part of our processes. It’s not here to steal people’s jobs, but to amplify efficiency and productivity. We’re motivated to proactively use the technology to seek out better ways of working and share our findings with the rest of the company.
If there's anything we can do to support you during the application process, let us know.
We don't discriminate on the basis of race, religion, colour, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability or any other protected characteristic.
One final thing: don't hold back. If you don't meet 100% of the criteria in this job description but you're certain you could make a big impact, apply. Everyone should have equal access to opportunities, and we're committed to providing an inclusive experience.
If Mews sounds like the kind of environment where you'd thrive, we'd love to hear from you.
